| Özet |
| This study was conducted in a kindergarten classroom in the Ayancik district of Sinop province, Türkiye, and examined indoor air quality under five scenarios. The measured parameters included formaldehyde, TVOC (total volatile organic compounds), PM10 and PM2. 5 (particulates), humidity, temperature, airflow velocity, and illumination level. The study found that using wood and plastic materials, such as toys, tables, and chairs, significantly influenced the indoor air quality in the kindergarten environment. Wood materials reduced formaldehyde, TVOC, and particulate matter (PM) levels. Formaldehyde levels ranged from 0.03 to 0.22 ppm, TVOC values from 0.001 to 0.003 mg/m?, PM10 levels from 16 to 52 µg/m?, and PM2. 5 levels from 15 to 46 µg/m?. In Scenario 5, the lowest levels of formaldehyde and TVOC were recorded. These findings offer important insights for improving air quality in kindergartens and … |
