Exposure potential for rosin-derived compounds, including volatile and semivolatile organic compounds produced during electronics soldering operations using rosin-based fluxes and rosin core solders, was investigated. A reaction system was constructed for trapping emission products. Particulate matter was collected on filters, and volatile organic compounds were collected on sorbent tube media for analysis by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/ MS). Comparisons were made between reaction system ...
