Standard Practice for Development of Microplastic Reference Samples for Calibration and Proficiency Evaluation in All Types of Water Matrices with High to Low Levels of Suspended Solids

2023
D19 Committee

Summary

This ASTM standard practice provides procedures for creating reference microplastic particle samples for use in calibrating and evaluating microplastic detection methods. Standardized reference materials are essential for ensuring that different laboratories produce consistent and comparable microplastic measurement results.

Significance and Use 5.1 These procedures can be used to generate microplastic particles as a simulation of microplastic particles found in the natural environment. Suitable uses may include evaluation of microplastic detection and imaging methods. Use of
