  • Title: Release of acetic acid and furfural from cork products.
    Author: Salthammer T, Fuhrmann F.
    Journal: Indoor Air; 2000 Jun; 10(2):133-4. PubMed ID: 11980103.
    Abstract:
    Cork samples were exposed to different temperatures and volatile ingredients were analyzed using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Thermal treatment at 180 degrees C yielded considerable amounts of furfural and acetic acid. In accordance with previous investigations it was concluded that both compounds are produced under thermal stress from degradation of polyoses.
