| Popis: | Continuously the automotive industry tries to satisfy customers expectations in comfort requirements. To the traditional requests like visual or tactile aspects, a new dimension appear to be an important criteria for customer’s choice: smell. Due to their manufacturing process and to their petrochemical compounds based, many rubbers and foams used in automotive materials result in a “new car odour” mostly enjoyed but sometimes felt as unpleasant by customers. The present paper describes and compares two electronic noses (ENs) using mass spectrometry (MS) detector based on fingerprint MS to analyse these emitted compounds: an upgraded gas chromatography (GC)/MS using MSstat software and a dedicated device. Modified traditional GC/MS system appears to be an interesting alternative method to get chemical sensor device which provides results as good as the dedicated one. |
