Standard Test Method for Identification and Quantification of Lead in Paint and Similar Coating Materials using Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry (EDXRF)

Importancia y uso:

5.1 This test method provides for analysis of Pb in applied paint using measurement times on the order of several minutes. It can be used to determine whether the sample of applied paint has an areal mass of Pb either substantially less than a specification limit, and therefore does not exceed it, or substantially above the specified limit, and therefore exceeds it.

5.2 If the value obtained with this test method falls close to a specification limit, a more precise test method may be required to positively determine whether Pb content does or does not exceed the specified limit.
