The
main aim of WP PC is the definition and analysis of the specification
for the sprayable formulation MNM dispersion and standardized textiles
used as impaction plates.
The first objectives of WP PC are to coordinate the collaboration with
the suppliers of MNM and textiles, to acquire the most appropriate
products with controlled quality. The following task is then to provide
formulations for the implementation of the MNM and to produce
dispersions following strict protocols. A detailed description of the
application procedures will be the basis for the measurements conducted
in WP E. Concurrent, textiles will be produced exhibiting different
surface modifications, which will be used as impaction plates for
spraying processes in WP E. To obtain real data about the behaviour of
the MNM, at least three types of textiles (cotton, polyester and
cotton/polyester) will be acquired and treated. The textiles will be
fully characterized and considered as standardized impaction plates to
study and model the MNM fate. Besides other methods for
characterization, ICP-MS operated in the so-called single particle mode
(sp-ICP-MS) will be used as one of the most sensitive technologies for
the detection of metal and metal oxide nanoparticles and to determine
the particle number concentration and the size of the nanoparticles
(ISO-NP TS 19590 – new project approved).
