Protocols for airborne sampling and analysis of carbon nanotubes (or CNT) and carbon nanofibers (or CNF) are provided by NIOSH. This short video from Maxxam will address the protocol for collecting two filter samples – one for characterization using TEM and one for analysis of elemental carbon. Collecting a sample is only one component in exposure assessment; consult with an industrial hygienist experienced in conducting nanomaterial exposure assessments and risk management.
