GOST 26150-84 PDF

Full title and description

ГОСТ 26150-84 — Материалы и изделия строительные полимерные отделочные на основе поливинилхлорида. Метод санитарно-химической оценки (Decorative polymer building materials and products on the basis of PVC. Method of sanitary‑chemical estimation).

Abstract

Standard specifying a gas‑chromatographic sanitary‑chemical evaluation method for polymeric building finishing materials made on a PVC basis. It sets sampling, conditioning and analysis conditions that model real exploitation parameters (air exchange, temperature, surface‑to‑volume ratio) to assess volatile and semi‑volatile chemical emissions from interior finishing products.

General information

• Status: Active / in force (listed as действующий in national standards databases).
• Publication date: Original approval/issue 1984 (06 August 1984), date of entry into force 01 January 1985.
• Publisher: Soviet / interstate standards authority (Gosstandart / Межгосударственный стандарт); maintained in national GOST collections and databases.
• ICS / categories: Plastics / rubber and related products; building materials (examples: OKS/ICS codes shown as 83.140 and 91.100.99 / 83.140.99 in catalogues).
• Edition / version: Original standard 1984 (effective 1985), with at least one recorded amendment (Change No.1, 2001) and later text updates/registrations reported in 2013–2015 databases.
• Number of pages: Edition counts vary by publisher and language—listed as about 27–28 pages in public catalogues.

Scope

The standard applies to polymeric finishing materials and products based on polyvinyl chloride (PVC) intended for interior finishing of residential, public and industrial premises and vehicles. It establishes a gas‑chromatographic method for sanitary‑chemical evaluation under test conditions that simulate typical exploitation (air exchange, temperature, ratio of material surface area to room volume). The method is intended to be referenced in technical specifications and standards for specific PVC materials.

Key topics and requirements

• Definition of scope and materials covered (PVC‑based polymer finishing materials for interiors).
• Gas‑chromatographic analytical method for identifying and quantifying volatile and semi‑volatile chemical substances emitted from materials.
• Sampling rules: recommended number of samples per lot (if unspecified by a product standard, not fewer than five samples) and sample preparation (example: sample area ~0.04 m² wrapped in aluminum foil).
• Timing of analysis: sanitary‑chemical analysis is performed not earlier than two months after material manufacture (conditioning period).
• Specification of sampling devices and preparative details (e.g., patron‑concentrator dimensions and sorbent preparation) — later amended by Change No.1.
• Requirements intended for incorporation into product‑specific standards and technical specifications to set permissible emission limits and test conditions.

Typical use and users

Used by manufacturers of PVC‑based flooring, wall and ceiling finishes, coatings and other interior polymer finishing products to demonstrate sanitary‑chemical compliance; by testing and certification laboratories performing emission testing; by sanitary‑epidemiological authorities and regulatory bodies assessing indoor air safety; and by standards bodies referencing the method in product standards and technical conditions.

Related standards

The standard references and is used alongside other GOSTs and normative documents addressing material composition, analytical methods and safety (examples of normative references listed in catalogues include various GOSTs for analytical methods and material properties). Product‑specific standards for PVC materials and regional technical regulations (as applicable) typically reference this method.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: A GOST (USSR/interstate) standard that defines a gas‑chromatographic method for sanitary‑chemical evaluation of PVC‑based decorative polymer building materials for interior use.

Q: What does it cover?

A: Scope includes sampling, conditioning and gas‑chromatographic analysis procedures to detect and quantify volatile and semi‑volatile chemical emissions under conditions modeling real use (air exchange, temperature, surface‑to‑volume ratio).

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Manufacturers of PVC finishing products, testing and certification laboratories, sanitary/epidemiological services, and standards/technical‑specification authors.

Q: Is it current or superseded?
