Abstract

<p>We evaluated the particle collection efficiencies of four types of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)-coated glass fiber filters. The efficiencies were tested with 10 sizes of monodispersed aerosols from 30 to 500 nm. The efficiencies</p><p>corresponding to each particle size were obtained by measuring particle number concentrations upward and downward of the filter set in the NWPS-254 sampler. The results showed that each filter satisfied the efficiency of more than</p><p>95% for particle size of 300 nm under the Working Environment Measurement Standards of Japan. On the other</p><p>hand, the efficiencies ranged from 87.0% to 99.7% when particle size was approximately 100 nm.</p>
