22、2015(E)IntroductionRespirable crystalline silica (RCS) is a hazard to the health of workers in many industries through exposure by inhalation. Industrial hygienists and other public health professionals need to determine the effectiveness of measures taken to control workers exposure. The collection

23、 of samples of air during a work activity and then measuring the amount of respirable crystalline silica is often done to assess an individuals exposure, the effectiveness of controls or their respiratory protection. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis of crystalline silica in a sample of respirable du

24、st collected on a filter is the principle technique employed in many countries to measure and estimate exposure to RCS. X-ray diffraction is able to clearly distinguish the polymorphs of crystalline silica.This part of ISO 16258 specifies the analysis procedure for the measurement of RCS where the d

25、ust is recovered from the collection substrate and deposited onto a filter for analysis. Many different types of sampling apparatus are used to collect respirable dust, according to the occupational hygiene convention. This part of ISO 16258 is designed to accommodate the variety of samplers and col

26、lection substrates available to analysts. This part of ISO 16258 is to be used in conjunction with ISO 24095 which promotes best practice for these analyses.vi ISO 2015 All rights reservedBS ISO 16258-2:2015Workplace air Analysis of respirable crystalline silica by X-ray diffraction Part 2: Method b

27、y indirect analysis1 ScopeThis part of ISO 16258 specifies the analysis of RCS in samples of air collected on collection substrates (i.e. filters or foams) by X-ray diffraction, when using an analytical approach where dust from the sample collection substrate (i.e. filter or foam) is recovered, trea

28、ted and deposited on another filter for analysis by the instrument. This part of ISO 16258 includes information on the instrumental parameters, sensitivity of different sampling apparatus, the use of different filters, sample treatment to remove interference and correction for absorption effects. In

29、 this part of ISO 16258, the expression respirable crystalline silica includes the most common polymorphs quartz and cristobalite. The less common polymorphs of crystalline silica, such as tridymite, are not included within the scope of this part of ISO 16258 because a standard reference material is

30、 not available. Under certain circumstances (i.e. low filter dust loads, low silica content), the analytical approach described in this method may not fulfil the expanded uncertainty requirements of EN 4827. Guidance for calculation of uncertainty for measurements of RCS is given in ISO 24095.2 Norm

47、Note 1 to entry: The limit of detection can be calculated as three times the standard deviation of blank measurements.

48、16258-2:2015(E)Note 2 to entry: The LOD can be used as a threshold value to assert the presence of a substance with a known confidence.Note 3 to entry: Many analysis procedures require laboratories to calculate an LOD by multiplying the standard deviation of measurements of a number of blank samples

49、 (10) by three. Readers should note that there is some doubt about the relationship between signal and the mass when RCS is measured at very low masses and a specific formula to determine the LOD using statistics based on a normal distribution is not given in this guidance. The test samples used for calibration are not matrix matched and reporting an LOD based on three standard deviations of the background noise may give an optimistic impression of the capability of method when analysing real samp
