| Significance and Use | ||

5.1?This test method provides a means of evaluating exposures to benzene-soluble particulate matter in a concentration range that can be related to occupational exposures. |

| 1. Scope | ||
|
1.1?This test method describes the sampling and gravimetric determination of benzene-soluble particulate matter that has become airborne as a result of certain industrial processes. This test method can be used to determine the total weight of benzene-soluble materials and to provide a sample that may be used for specific and detailed analyses of the soluble components. 1.2?The limit of detection is 0.05 mg/m3 by sampling a 1 m3 volume of air. Note 1:?Other volatile organic solvents have been used for
this determination and whereas a less toxic solvent for this
analysis might be desirable, the substitution of a solvent other
than benzene is unwise at this time. A tremendous volume of
environmental sampling data based on benzene-soluble determinations
has been accumulated over many years in several
industries.1.3?The
values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other
units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.4?This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.5?This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. |
