Introduction
In many countries, regulation of vapour products requires reporting for carbonyl compounds in
emissions. Therefore, there is a necessity to have an International Standard in place to get reliable/
comparable data for selected carbonyls in vapour product emissions.
[1]
The method in this document is based upon the CORESTA recommended method CRM 96 which was
written on the basis of the results obtained in an interlaboratory study conducted in 2019 involving 11
laboratories.
Carbonyl compounds are known to be derived from the thermal degradation of the base ingredients
[2],[3]
of the e-liquid formulations. The experimental design parameters used to collect the aerosolised
vapour should be evaluated and documented for each analysis.

4 Principle
The vapour product emissions are generated and collected on a vaping machine according to
ISO 20768. The trapping system that is used to trap carbonyls consists of a pad holder containing a
glass fibre filter pad according to ISO 24197, in series with an impinger containing an acidified
solution of 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) in 1:1 acetonitrile: water. Post-vaping, the glass fibre
filter pad is combined with the impinger solution and shaken mechanically for 20 min. An aliquot of
the sample extract is subsequently neutralised with pyridine and analysed by reversed phase liquid
chromatography with ultra violet or diode array detector (RPLC-UV or RPLC-DAD). The carbonyl
content in the vapour product emissions is calculated based on an external calibration curve containing
the prederivatized DNPH carbonyl compounds. Results are expressed as the weight of carbonyl per
puff, per aerosol collected mass (ACM) or per puff block as warranted.

7 Procedure
7.1 Preparation of test samples
All the vapour products to be tested shall be stored according to ISO 20768. Vapour products with
rechargeable batteries shall be fully charged before the test. The aerosols are generated on a vaping
machine which follows the specifications specified in ISO 20768.
7.2 Glass fibre filter pads handling
Glass fibre filter pads shall be stored in the test atmosphere for a minimum of 24 h prior to determination
of pre-testing weights.
For all operations, the operator shall prevent contamination from the fingers by wearing gloves of a
proper material (powder free). Between operations, a glass fibre filter pad holder cap, if available, may
be installed to prevent water loss or uptake. Glass fibre filter pads shall be processed as quickly after
collection as is feasible to prevent uptake or loss of water.
7.3 Aerosol collection and sample preparation
The tested vapour product shall be operated in accordance with the manufacturer recommendations.
Samples shall be collected under the conditions specified in ISO 20768. The vaping machine shall be set
up to collect aerosol onto the glass fibre filter pad connected in series with an impinger (Figure 1).
Add 35 ml of DNPH trapping solution (5.2.3) to a separate impinger with an insert for each sample to be
collected.
Assemble trapping system of the vaping machine in the following order (see Figure 1):
— pre-weighed 44 mm filter pad/holder;
— impinger;
— optional backup filter pad (not included in analysis);
— vaping machine.
Prior to collecting aerosol samples, the trapping system should be evaluated to ensure there are no
leaks in the system and to ensure the puff volume is correct.
— Leak check: To determine whether a leak has occurred in the vaping machine impinger setup, use a
leak tester.
— Puff volume check: Check and adjust the puff volume drawn by the vaping machine at all channels
at the product insertion end of the port with the filter pad/holder and impinger and in line.

5 vaping machine
Figure 1 — Aerosol collection setup for carbonyls analysis
Collect aerosol under standard conditions for aerosol generation as specified in ISO 20768.
Since there is no standard impinger design, trapping efficiency shall be verified when validating this
method. Ensure the end of the bubbler tube is completely submerged in the trapping solution and that
the impinger can adequately hold 35 ml of trapping solution. The trapping system should effectively
trap 95 % of the analytes of interest. To check the trapping efficiency of the method, add an additional
impinger after the impinger and analyse the contents separately according to the method. If less than
5 % of the compounds are detected in the backup impinger, then only one impinger is required to trap
all the carbonyls effectively. Breakthrough or poor trapping efficiency can be due to the size of the
impinger, or bubbler tube or due to products with high carbonyl yields.
7.4 Determination of aerosol collected mass (ACM) and e-liquid vaporised mass (EVM)
Aerosol collected mass (ACM) and e-liquid vaporised mass (EVM) shall be determined gravimetrically
according to ISO 24197.
7.5 Test portion
Post collection, for each glass fibre filter pad, open the holder and remove glass fibre filter pad with
forceps. Fold the pad twice with the aerosol side toward the inside of the folds, being careful to
handle only the edge of the glass fibre filter pad. Wipe the inside of the filter holder with the filter pad
to ensure all residue is captured. Transfer the glass fibre filter pad to a suitable size glass vial with
screw cap. Transfer the entire contents of impinger to the glass vial containing the filter pad and cap.

Introduction
In many countries regulation of vapour products require reporting for carbonyl compounds in
emissions. Therefore, there is a necessity to have an International Standard in place to get reliable/
comparable data for selected carbonyls in vapour product emissions.
[3]
The method in this document is based upon the CORESTA recommended method CRM 96 (Draft)
which was written on the basis of the results obtained in an interlaboratory study conducted in 2019
involving 11 laboratories
Carbonyl compounds are known to be derived from the thermal degradation of the base ingredients
[4][5]
of the e-liquid formulations. Therefore, the experimental design parameters used to collect the
aerosolised vapour should be evaluated and documented for each analysis.

Vapour products — Determination of selected carbonyls in
vapour product emissions
WARNING — The use of this document can involve hazardous materials, operations and
equipment. This document does not purport to address all the safety problems associated with
its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this document to establish appropriate safety and
health practices, and determine the applicability of any other restrictions prior to use.
1 Scope
This document specifies a method for the determination of the amount of selected carbonyl compounds
(formaldehyde and acetaldehyde) as their 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazones in vapour product emissions
using reversed phase liquid chromatography coupled with Ultraviolet or Diode Array detector (LC-UV
or LC-DAD).
This document does not include the analysis of other carbonyl compounds, such as acrolein and
crotonaldehyde, due to previous work indicated issues associated with stability of these compounds
[6]
and inconsistencies in deliveries of these compounds in emissions from vapour products .

4 Principle
The vapour product emissions are generated and collected on a vaping machine according to
ISO 20768. The trapping system that is used to trap carbonyls consists of a pad holder containing a
Glass fibre filter pad (as specified in ISO 24197) in series with an impinger containing an acidified
solution of 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) in 1:1 acetonitrile: water. Post-vaping, the glass fibre
pad is combined with the impinger solution and shaken mechanically for 20 minutes. An aliquot of
the sample extract is subsequently neutralised with pyridine and analysed by reversed phase liquid
chromatography with Ultra Violet or Diode Array detector (LC-UV or LC-DAD). The carbonyl content
in the vapour product emissions is calculated based on an external calibration curve containing the
prederivatized DNPH carbonyl compounds. Results are expressed as the weight of carbonyl per puff,
per aerosol collected mass (ACM) or per puff block as warranted.

5.9 Solution Preparation: Prepare appropriately proportioned amounts of the solutions listed
below. All solutions must be equilibrated to room temperature prior to use. Use graduated cylinders and
calibrated pipettes to combine components.
5.9.1 10 % H PO
3 4
Prepare by bringing 118 ml of 85 % H PO (5.3) to 1 l water. Vendor prepared 10 % H PO may be used
3 4 3 4
instead. Store at room temperature.
5.9.2 DNPH Trapping solution, prepared with DNPH-HCL (5.8)
Dissolve 1,0 g DNPH-HCl (5.8) in 500 ml of ACN (5.1), combine with 40 ml of 10 % H PO (5.9.1) and
3 4
bring to 1 l with water. Mix solution to ensure all the DNPH-HCl dissolves and no crystals remain.
Solution should be prepared fresh weekly, stored at room temperature and protected from light.
NOTE Alternative preparation of trapping solution with DNPH containing 30 % water is provided in Annex A.
5.9.3 DNPH Neutralised trapping solution (if dilutions are required)
Transfer 50 ml of DNPH trapping solution to a suitable size glass bottle and add 2,5 ml of pyridine. Mix
solution thoroughly.
5.10 Preparation of Standards
All solutions shall be equilibrated to room temperature prior to use.
5.10.1 HPLC calibration standards and working solutions
The calibration should cover the concentration range of interest. Annex B provides a suitable
concentration range that can be used for the analysis, however, it can be adjusted depending on the
level of carbonyls detected in the samples. The user shall ensure the low calibration standard has a
sufficient signal to noise ratio for accurate quantitation (≥10:1) and that the calibration curve is linear.
5.10.2 Primary carbonyl standards
Weigh the hydrazones as described in Annex B into individual 25 ml volumetric flasks and dissolve in
acetonitrile. Record the concentrations of the free aldehyde equivalents in µg/ml.
5.10.3 Secondary carbonyl standards
Pipette predetermined volumes (Annex B) of each primary hydrazone standard into a 25 ml volumetric
flask and dilute to the mark with acetonitrile.
NOTE Stock solutions of the individual DNPH derivatized carbonyls can be purchased at the required levels.
5.10.4 Carbonyl working standards
Take appropriate volumes (0,05 ml to 5 ml) of the secondary carbonyl standard (5.10.3) and dilute to
10 ml with acetonitrile to prepare calibration standards with approximate carbonyl concentrations
(see Annex B).
Transfer to auto-sampler vials and cap.
Stability and storage time should be evaluated by the laboratory.
