BS ISO 22262-2:2014 PDF

1   Scope This part of ISO 22262 specifies procedures for quantification of asbestos mass fractions below approximately 5 %, and quantitative determination of asbestos in vermiculite, other industrial minerals and commercial products that incorporate these minerals. This part of ISO 22262 is applicable to the quantitative analysis of:

a) any material for which the estimate of asbestos mass fraction obtained using ISO 22262-1 is deemed to be of insufficient precision to reliably classify the regulatory status of the material, or for which it is considered necessary to obtain further evidence to demonstrate the absence of asbestos ;

b) resilient floor tiles, asphaltic materials, roofing felts and any other materials in which asbestos is embedded in an organic matrix ;

c) wall and ceiling plasters, with or without aggregate;

d) mineral products such as wollastonite, dolomite, calcite, talc or vermiculite, and commercial products containing these minerals.

This part of ISO 22262 is primarily intended for application to samples in which asbestos has been identified at estimated mass fractions lower than approximately 5 % by weight. I...
