Convert ppm and mg/m3

    To convert from ppm to mg/m3, the equation is as follows:

    • Concentration (mg/m3 ) = 0.0409 x concentration (ppm) x molecular weight 

    To convert from mg/m3 to ppm, the equation is as follows:

    • Concentration (ppm) = 24.45 x concentration (mg/m3 ) ÷ molecular weight

    For formaldehyde:
    Molecular weight - 30.031 g/mol
