| Abstract |
The design of this dosimeter incorporates a tube diffusion element, liquid absorption reservoir (0.08M tetrachloromercurate) and a porous plastic mass transfer element. Laboratory and field tests confirmed that the dosimeter was reliable for SO2 concentrations between 2.5 and 15ppm. Exposed dosimeters require refrigeration and analysis within 24h. A colorimetric method (NIOSH method 160) is used for analysis. Estimated overall accuracy for the method is approximately ±10%. |
