VOC Explanation: From reference 2 "The control of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) has been a concern in this country for decades and has been mandated for the past 20 years. The Clean Air Act of 1990 created standards to protect public health by requiring sources to control emissions from hazardous air pollutants." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2010-05-30 19:16:56 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Just found the following: "Tidlige var det også krav til kjemikalier som inneholdt organiske løsemidler med merking av et YL-tall (yrkeshygienisk luftbehov) og YL-gruppe (Regler omkring YL-merkingen). Dette kravet falt bort 01.07.2005. Noen leverandører merker likevel sine produkter med YL-tall på frivillig basis. Produkter som klassifiseres som billakkprodukter skal med virkning fra 01.01.2007 være merket med VOC tall. VOC tallet angir innhold av løsemidler i gram pr. ltr. produkt i bruksferdig stand." from http://www.handboka.no/Vgs/Veiled/Nbf/bilskave5.htm Example sentence(s):
