AbstractAbstract
[en] A set of filter standards were prepared by suspending NIES Vehicle Exhaust Particulate onto Teflon filters. To improve the adhesion of particles, a thin layer of mineral oil was applied as an aerosol to the deposit side of the filters. The suspension apparatus was designed to ensure sample homogeneity (particle size and deposit) and elemental analysis provided an information value which confirmed elemental homogeneity between filters. Participating laboratories were sent a set of two filter standards, one fine and one coarse loaded, and two filter blanks. Performance was evaluated by comparison with the information values and on how one laboratory compared with another. Overall, the participating laboratories showed agreement within expected errors, with the exception of a few elements for each of the laboratories. Evaluation rankings ranged form excellent to poor.
