Abstract
The objective of the study was to select deodorants for use in aircraft chemical toilets, and also to develop a group of minimum performance characteristics for deodorant chemicals acceptable to the U. S. Air Force. An air dilution technic obtaining threshold odor values leading to odor control factors was found to be the most satisfactory method for deodorant evaluation. This technic utilized an osmometer developed especially for the purpose. Olfactory anaesthesia and the masking power of deodorants are two other important parameters that can be readily evaluated with the osmometer. (Author Modified Abstract)
