Submicron aerosols: a review
Description
Submicron aerosols, ranging in particle diameter from 0.1 μm to 0.001 μm, and in number concentration from 10,000 to 100,000 per cm3, are more or less continuously suspended in the atmosphere we breathe. They usually require in situ measurement of concentration and size distribution with instruments such as diffusion batteries and condensation nucleus counters. Laboratory measurements require the development of submicron aerosol generators. The development of several of these devices and their use in the laboratory and field to measure radioactive as well as inactive aerosols is described
