The preparation process including material collection, dried, pulverize, sieve, homogenization and preliminary test was described in detail. The more effective grinding methods were established to achieve the median particle size of 22μm.展开更多

The experimental methods were described in detail. The results show that IAEA 396A/M Vienna urban dust is homogeneous enough for small sample analysis of standard reference material (SRM).展开更多
