2、 case 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 test method is intended as a screening test todetermine if the solids in a paint c

7、 Method for Detection of Lead in Paint andDried Paint Films3. Summary of Test Method3.1 A weighed quantity of the paint sample is diluted(solvent-reducible paints in methyl isobutyl ketone and water-reducible paints in water) and then aspirated into the burner ofan atomic absorption spectrometer. Le

Significance and Use4.1 Current U.S. regulations restrict the amount of lead thatmay be present in consumer paint products to less than 0

9、.06 %based on the total solids. This test method provides a rapidmeans for screening paints to determine compliance with thoseregulations. The test method may be adjusted to meet regula-tions with a different limit on lead content.5. Apparatus5.1 Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer, consisting of an

Determine thenonvolatile content of the base paint and choose quantities ofthe lead compound so that the lead concentrations of thestandard paints will be approximately 300, 600, and 900 g/gbased on the nonvolatile content.7. Calibration and Standardization7.1 Pre

19、pare at least three solvent-reducible or water-reducible standard paint specimens (see 6.4) that bracket theexpected lead concentration in the sample to be tested. Fol-lowing the procedure in 8.2 dilute the standards for aspiration.7.2 Operational instructions for atomic absorption spectro-photomete

20、rs vary with different models. Consult the manufac-turers literature for establishing optimum conditions for thespecific instrument used.7.3 Turn the instrument on and set the wavelength to the283.3-nm lead line. Apply the current recommended by themanufacturer to the lead source lamp. Allow the ins

21、trument towarm up for about 15 min and set the slit width. Adjust the airand acetylene pressure or flow rates and ignite the burner inaccordance with the manufacturers instructions.Abackgroundcorrector should be used.7.4 Aspirate each of the diluted standard paints and recordthe corresponding absorb

22、ance readings. Aspirate MIBK orwater, as appropriate, between standards. (WarningIt isimportant that MIBK or water be aspirated immediately aftereach diluted standard paint to minimize fouling of theaspirator/nebulizer system which could change the aspirationrate and absorbance reading. Continued re

23、sponse for lead whileaspirating MIBK or water may indicate contamination of theburner head with pigment and require cleaning of the burnerhead.)NOTE 1To be certain that the diluted paint specimen remains homo-geneous during aspiration, the flask containing the specimen may bestirred continuously wit
