ASTM D3266 - 91(2011) standard test method for automated separation and collection of particulate and acidic gaseous fluoride in the atmosphere (Double paper tape sampler method)

This test method provides a means of automatically separating and collecting atmospheric particulate and acidic gaseous fluoride samples. Since the samples are collected on dry tapes, the samples are in a form which allows elution of the fluoride content with a small volume of eluent. Consequently, the method allows analyses of air samples taken for a time period as short as several minutes. ...
