1、Designation:D696618Standard Practice forCollection of Settled Dust Samples Using Wipe SamplingMethods for Subsequent Determination of Metals1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6966;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the cas
2、e of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This practice covers the collection of settled dust onsurfaces using the wipe sampling method.The
3、se samples arecollected in a manner that will permit subsequent extractionand determination of target metals in the wipes using labora-tory analysis techniques such as atomic spectrometry.1.2 This practice does not address the sampling designcriteria(that is,sampling plan which includes the number a
4、ndlocation of samples)that are used for clearance,hazardevaluation,risk assessment,and other purposes.To provide forvalid conclusions,sufficient numbers of samples should beobtained as directed by a sampling plan,for example,inaccordance with Guide D7659.1.3 This practice contains notes that are exp
5、lanatory and arenot part of the mandatory requirements of this practice.1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It
