Description

A new method for sample preparation of individual aerosol particle in SPM analysis was developed. Aerosol particles were collected directly on the polyvinyl butyral (PVB) foil by using air sampler. Microscopic observation indicates that the particles were separated completely and the interval of particles was reasonable. The SPM experiment proves that PVB foils have excellent stability under proton microbeam bombardment and are a suitable backing material for supporting the single particle for SPM analysis.
