Effectsof Mycocide and Insecticide on Indoor Air Quality in Archiver / 环境与健康杂志

ABSTRACT

[Objective] To explore the effects of mycocide and insecticide on indoor air quality in archives.[Methocls] The levels of camphor, formaldehyde and 2, 2-dichlorovinyldimethyl phosphate (DDVP) in indoor airwere determined in 17 archives. [Results] The average concentration of camphor in indoor air was 1.00mg/L inarchives applying synthetic camphor, 0.74 mg/m3 in archives applying commercialized mycocide (the main compo-nents were synthetic camphor and pyrethrin ), and 0.14 mg/m3, applying natural camphor. The concentrations offormaldehyde reached 0.297 mg/m3 at the 10th day after the co-fumigation by formaldehyde and DDVP. At thesametime, DDVP was not found in indoor air of archives.[Conclusion]The pollution of formaldehyde and camphorin indoor air of archives should be paid more attention to.
