Abstract
Evaluations of odour intensity of the air polluted with cyclohexane (A), cyclohexanone (B) and cyclohexane with admixtures of cyclohexanone (mixtures MI, M2 and M3; x8 = 0.14; 0.05 and 0.02 respectively) were made. Empirical parameters of psychophysical equations (Weber-Fechner' and Stevens') were determined. Total concentrations of the mixtures were within the range C = 1500-3500 ppm. The interaction constant av= 115-132° was estimated for the mixtures. Verification of known models of odour interaction led to the conclusion that possible application of the models for prediction of odour intensity of the air polluted with mixtures of cyclohexane and hexane is limited.
