1、Designation: F 51 00 (Reapproved 2007)Standard Test Method forSizing and Counting Particulate Contaminant In and OnClean Room Garments1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 51; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of originaladoption or, in the case of

2、revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A superscriptepsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of detachableparticulate contaminant 5 m or larger, i

3、n and on the fabric ofclean room garments.1.2 This test method does not apply to nonporous fabricssuch as Tyvekt or Gortext. It only applies to fabrics that areporous such as cotton or polyester.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The inch-pound values given in paren

4、theses are forinformation only.1.4 This test method provides not only the traditional opticalmicroscopic analysis but also a size distribution and surfaceobscuration analysis for particles on a fine-textured membranefilter or in a tape lift sample. It utilizes transmitted illuminationto render all p

5、articles darker than the background for gray leveldetection. Particles collected on opaque plates must be trans-ferred to a suitable membrane filter.1.5 This standard may involve hazardous materials, opera-tions, and equipment. This standard does not purport toaddress all of the safety concerns, if

6、any, associated with itsuse. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard toestablish appropriate safety and health practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Test

9、 Method4.1 Filtered air is drawn through five designated 0.01-m2(1.5-in.2or approximately 0.01-ft2) areas of a single thicknessof the garment fabric at a rate of 14 L/min (0.5 cfm) for aperiod of 1 min for each area.4.2 The air drawn through the garment subsequently passesthrough a membrane filter d

10、isk, impinging the entrainedparticles upon the filter surface.4.3 The filter disk is then examined microscopically forparticles removed from the garment.4.4 For particles larger than 5 m, use optical analysis. Forparticles smaller than 5 m, use automated image analysis.4.5 Cleaning and counting tech

11、niques are in accordancewith those established in Section 10.5. Significance and Use5.1 The test method for particulate sizing and numbers ongarments is nondestructive and may be used to evaluate thecontamination levels of fibers and particles on and in cleanroom garments. The test may be used for e

12、valuating thecleanliness levels of new or newly cleaned garments. It alsomay be used to evaluate the extent of fiber and particulatecontamination on garments that have been worn, if necessary.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee E21 on SpaceSimulation and Applications of Spa
