Novel eco-friendly methodology to determine polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in polyurethane foam for air monitoring: Application to spatial and temporal distribution survey.

This study aimed at developing a new method for the extraction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in polyurethane foam (PUF). In the field of PAH monitoring, passive samplers using PUF disks are widely used. However, current extraction methods are time and solvent consuming.
