15、.1 This test method provides a means of automaticallyseparating and collecting atmospheric particulate and acidicgaseous fluoride samples.5.2 Since the samples are collected on dry tapes,thesamples are in a form which allows elution of the fluoridecontent with a small volume of eluent.Consequently,t
16、hemethod allows analyses of air samples taken for a time periodas short as several minutes.6.Interferences6.1 Particulate metallic salts,such as those of aluminum,iron,calcium,magnesium or rare-earth elements,may reactwith and remove some or all of the acidic gaseous fluoride onthe prefilter.If interfering quantities of such particulate metal-lic salts are present,the use of Test Methods D3268 isrecommended because the acidic fluoride gases are collectedprior to the filter.6.2 Acid aerosols or g
