Thermal and mass spectroscopy techniques will show the different VOC(s) with their corresponding evolution with respect to time and temperature and any other conditions.

volatile organic compound (VOC) definitions, standards and methodologies for its evaluation, vary in different regions of the world and continue to evolve.
Below I suggest to you some notes that I hope can be useful to you in the "operative" choices :
- VOC Test Methodology

- ASTM and ISO VOCs in Coatings - Method Comparison Matrix

- Direct Methods for Analyzing Volatile Organic Compounds in Coatings
