1-0 SCQES&HIBPQSE
Ib is method is applicable to the identification and quantitation of small (typically 1-20 micrometer) asbestifonn minerals in powdered talc. Samples may be previously screened w ith light microscopy or x-ray diffraction techniques.

5.0 SB N SrnvITY
This method is capable o f detectings single fiber aa small as lm icrcaneter(m m )km gby 0.075 mm wide in ti entire T E M fidd, which results in a theoretical detection lim it of 10-5w eight percent Such fibers usually canbe identified readily by SAED and EDXRA. The mass of a fiber w ith the above dimensions is 1.1 x 10`u g firr chrysolile and 1.5 x 10*14g for amphibole.
6.0 LIMIT OF QUANTIFIABLE DETBCTEQN
The detection o f five or mote asbestifonn
o f one variety in an analysis constitute a quantifiable level of
detection. W hen no asbestifonn minerals are detected, a representative fiber size is used to calculate a detection
lim it A representative fiber size is 3 ram longby 0.2 mm wide by 0.06 m m thick, which is considerably larger
than tte sm allest fiber that esatbe detected (see section 5, SENSITIVnY). b u t is more lypical o f small asbestos
fibers that are detected in talc analyses. The mass o f five such fibers is calculated as follows:
3 mm x 02 mm x 0.06 mm 0.036mm5per fiber x 3.3E-12 g / mm* 1.2 B-13 g p er fiber

to make two sample grids per talc sample.
NOTE: Do not expel tte remaining 0.2 m l ssqK oaian from fee micmpipette tip. it tends to sputter and frequently destroys the stability o ffee sample drop.
12.6 Transfer slide w ith grids to a desiccator. (Drying time is 2-3 hours.) Do not leave the grids on the slide fo r more than one day as the double-stick tape may adhere too tightly.
NOTE: The talcrwater ratio may reed to be varied fcr some samples. Preparation o f talc samples w ith a significantly finer or co a rw particle size results in large differences in particle coverage on the
TEM grid.
