20、 Method4.1 An appropriate filter is pre-weighed to the nearest 1 10-8kg (0.01 mg), outgassed, and the background surface areameasured prior to nanoparticle collection in an inhalationexposure chamber. A sufficient amount of nanoparticles (toprovide at least the minimum surface area required for reli

21、ableresults for the instrument used) are collected on the filter, thefilter with particles is post-weighed, outgassed, and totalsurface area measured. The surface area concentration of theairborne nanoparticles in the exposure chamber is estimated bysubtracting the background filter surface area fro

22、m the totalsurface area of the filter with nanoparticles and normalized bythe volume of air sampled, with the final result expressed asm2/m3(LeBouf et al., 2011) (5).4.2 Multipoint BET AnalysesVolume of gas adsorbed at77 K (liquid nitrogen temperature) is determined as 10-6m3(cm3) corrected to stand

23、ard temperature and pressure for aminimum of five relative pressures within the linear BETtransformation range of the physical adsorption isothermcharacteristic of the filter and/or nanoparticle. The linear rangeis that which results in a least squares correlation coefficient of0.999 or greater for

24、the relationship between BET transforma-tion and relative pressure. Typically, the linear range includesrelative pressures between 0.05 and 0.30.4.3 It is important to use an analytical balance to determinethe sample mass. The physical adsorption instrument measuresthe total amount of gas adsorbed o

25、nto the sample underanalysis. The sample mass is then used to normalize themeasured adsorption results.Any error in the sample mass willaffect the final BET surface area.4.4 Calculations are based on the BET equation, as requiredby the instrument being used for the determination. Theinstrument press

26、ure tolerance (pressure range that must bemaintained within a sample cell to accept a valid data point) is6.6 Pa. In this standard, the cross-sectional area for the kryptonadsorbate is taken to be 2.02 10-19m2(ISO 9277); however,some instrument software may use a different default value.Assuch, the

27、cross-sectional area of the krypton adsorbate used incalculations should be reported with the BET surface arearesults.5. Significance and Use5.1 A tiered strategy for characterization of nanoparticleproperties is necessary to draw meaningful conclusions con-cerning dose-response relationships observ

28、ed during inhalationtoxicology experiments. This tiered strategy includes charac-terization of nanoparticles as produced (that is, measured as thebulk material sold by the supplier) and as administered (that is,measured at the point of delivery to a test subject) (Oberdorsteret al., 2005) (6).5.2 Te

29、st Methods B922 and C1274 and ISO Standards 9277and 18757 exist for determination of the as produced surfacearea of bulk metal and metal oxide powders. During thedelivery of metal and metal oxide nanoparticles in inhalationexposure chambers, the material properties may undergochange and therefore ha

30、ve properties that differ from thematerial as produced. This test method describes the determi-nation of the as administered surface area of airborne metaland metal oxide nanoparticles in inhalation exposure chambersfor inhalation toxicology studies.6. Interferences6.1 This test method can be used t

31、o determine the internaland external surface of nanoparticles only after the surfaceshave been cleaned of any physically adsorbed molecules (forexample, water or volatile organic compounds) which preventphysical adsorption of the gas probe molecules used to measuresurface area. Therefore, it is nece

32、ssary to remove theseadsorbed contaminants prior to surface area analysis(Anderson, 1975; Gregg and Sing, 1982) (2, 3). Outgassing isperformed by evacuating the sample (typically at 10-1Pa) andcan be accelerated by using elevated temperatures, provided noirreversible sample changes occur. Outgassing

33、 is completewhen duplicate surface area analyses produce results withinexpected instrument repeatability limits.7. Apparatus7.1 Commercial instruments employing low temperature(77 K) krypton adsorption are available from several manufac-turers for the measurement of specific surface area by physical

34、adsorption. Use of krypton is required due to the low overallsurface area of particle-laden samples and the need to accu-rately measure the background surface area of the filter usedfor sample collection. Some instruments are automated ver-sions of the classical vacuum apparatus. Others make use ofb

35、alanced adsorption technology. Additionally, commercial in-struments are available which measure physical adsorptionbased on the dynamic flow method.7.2 Analytical Balance, having a sensitivity of110-8kg.E2864 1327.3 Degassing Equipment, capable of maintaining a sampledegas temperature of 120 6 10C.

Instru-ment manufacturers may also produce reference materials.10.2 Background Filter Surface Area:NOTE 4As an alternative to determining the background surface areafor each TEPC filter sample, an average background surface area can bedetermined from a representative sam

43、ple of filters from each lot. Thebetween-lot filter surface area variability for TEPC filters (0.037 mdiameter,410-7m pore size) accounted for 65 % of the total variabilitywhereas the within lot-filter variability accounted for 35 % of the totalvariability in one laboratory. The within lot filter re

44、peatability standarddeviation has been determined to be 0.03 (pooled relative standarddeviation) in that same laboratory.10.2.1 The user must verify the background surface area forthe particular type and lot of filter used.10.2.2 Handle a filter on the edges only using metaltweezers, pass through a

45、static charge neutralizer, and recordthe mass reading on a calibrated analytical balance capable ofreading to110-8kg.NOTE 5If desired, a control filter can be weighed and handled inexactly the same manner as the experimental filter to verify that the filterhandling steps do not result in gravimetric

46、 errors.10.2.3 Equilibrate the filter in the same temperature- andhumidity-controlled environment as the balance prior to weigh-ing.10.2.4 Wearing clean nitrile gloves roll the filter into acylinder having a diameter narrow enough to insert it into theglass sample cell.NOTE 6The filter can be wrappe
