20、0 cm (referred to as the “small wipe”).NOTE 1Large wipes are intended for use on larger areas (for example,1000 cm2). Small wipes are intended for use on smaller areas (forexample, 100 cm2).6.1.5 ThicknessDry wipes (wipes without the moisteningagent) shall have a mean thickness of at least 0.005 cm,

21、 but nogreater than 0.05 cm (see 8.6).6.1.6 MassThe coefficient of variation in mass of drywipes in a lot shall not exceed 10 %.6.1.7 Beryllium RecoveriesThe mean beryllium recover-ies from wipes spiked with Certified Reference Materials(CRMs) shall be 100 6 20 % at the 95 % confidence level inaccor

22、dance with 8.2.NOTE 2It is not imperative that the wipe be completely dissolvedwhen digested/extracted in accordance with a standard beryllium testmethod to meet the recovery criterion. However, the digestion/extractionsolution that is to be analyzed should be free of suspended particulates andgelat

The mass of beryllium-containing material (particu

24、late ordust) loaded per surface area to be sampled shall be0.50 6 0.05 g for the large wipe and 0.050 6 0.005 g for thesmall wipe. The minimum collection efficiency of at least 95 %of the individual wipes shall be 75 %, as measured against theknown mass of beryllium loaded on the test surface prior

27、. Backgroundberyllium in unspiked wipes (see 6.1.1) shall be measured inaccordance with the same procedure. A minimum of sevensamples per each concentration level (unspiked, 0.020 6 0.002g, 0.10 6 0.02 g, 0.20 6 0.02 g, 1.5 6 0.2 g, 3.0 6 0.2g, and 6.0 6 0.2 g) shall be tested (see 6.1.1 and 6.1.7),

28、using wipes randomly selected from each lot in accordancewith Practice E105.8.1.1 Compute the mean and coefficient of variation foreach set of samples. See Practice E691 for details regardingstatistical computations. Compare with the requirements of6.1.1 and 6.1.7.8.2 Collection EffciencyCollection

29、efficiency of beryl-lium shall be measured in the following manner:8.2.1 A delineated area of the vinyl or urethane-coated tiletest surface (minimum area 1000 cm2for large wipes and 100cm2for small wipes as in 6.1.8) is loaded with a known mass(0.50 6 0.05 g for large wipes and 0.050 6 0.005 g for s

30、mallwipes) of CRM particulate or dust (see 6.1.7) and then wipedin accordance with Practice D6966.8.2.2 An equivalent alternative procedure consists of manu-ally distributing a known amount (mass) of beryllium-containing CRM uniformly onto the vinyl tile test surface of1000 cm2(large wipe) or 100 cm

31、2(small wipe) minimum area,and then wiping the applicable surface with the appropriatelysized wipe in accordance with Practice D6966.8.2.3 The collection efficiency is determined by comparingthe amount of beryllium collected in the wipe against the totalamount of beryllium loaded onto the area of in

32、terest on the testsurface (in accordance with 8.2.1 or 8.2.2). A minimum ofseven wipes, randomly selected from the lot in accordance withPractice E105, shall be tested for each beryllium level.8.2.4 For the measurement of beryllium content, the wipesshall be digested/extracted and the beryllium cont

Examine

34、the wipe for the presence of tears. Followthis procedure for a minimum of seven wipes, randomlyselected from the lot of wipe material in accordance withPractice E105. If at least 95 % of the wipes tested reveal notears, then the ruggedness test is deemed successful.8.4 Moisture ContentMoisture conte

35、nt (see 6.1.3)ofwipes shall be determined by weighing the wipe before andafter quantitative drying (to the nearest 0.01 g), and calculatingD7707 112the difference.
