Description

An inhalable particulate matter (PM10) sampler is the necessary device for monitoring PM10 in air. The accuracy of the device is a primary character in evaluation of the apparatus' metrological performance. Spherical standard particulate matter is ideal for the calibration of samplers. Five kinds of monodisperse microsphere size particulate matters which are made from polystyrene crosslinked with divinylbenzene were developed and certified. The technical specifications of the developed standard particulate matters meet the requirements for cutting test of inhalable particulate matter PM10 sampler. (authors)
