What is the status of a hydrocarbon solvent with regard to VOC ?
The Solvent Emissions Directive states the definition of VOC. For single molecules such as for example toluene and n-pentane, vapour pressure (VP) values are well known and can be found in the literature. For commercial hydrocarbon solvents (which are mostly complex substances, often of unknown detailed composition, with up to 50 or more individual components) the VP and/or the VOC status at 20C is supplied by the manufacturer. If your temperature conditions of use differ from 20C you will need to contact your supplier to clarify the VOC status.
