Abstract :
The health, comfort and safety of a passenger are closely related to the air quality in a vehicle. In this paper, the research is performed to reduce VOC pollution inside the vehicle. The influence of VOC content of parts such as rubber, plastic, foaming on interior air quality is introduced. Moreover, the VOC pollution of parts, such as weather strip, central console and seat, is analyzed and solutions are presented accordingly. The improved effects are also described to ensure that the passenger is safe and healthy when driving a car.
