Abstract

ISO 15900:2009 provides guidelines on the determination of aerosol particle size distribution by means of the analysis of electrical mobility of aerosol particles. This measurement is usually called “differential electrical mobility analysis for aerosol particles”. This analytical method is applicable to particle size measurements ranging from approximately 1 nm to 1 µm. ISO 15900:2009 does not address the specific instrument design or the specific requirements of particle size distribution measurements for different applications, but includes the calculation method of uncertainty.
