This document specifies terms and definitions that are related to air quality (see 3.1.1.1). These are either general terms or are used in connection with the sampling (see 3.3.3.1) and measurement of gases, vapours (see 3.1.5.8) and airborne particles (see 3.2.2.1) for the determination of air quality. The terms included are those that have been identified as being fundamental because their definition is necessary to avoid ambiguity and ensure consistency of use. An alphabetical index of the terms is provided in Annex A. This document is applicable to all International Standards, ISO Technical Reports, ISO Technical Specifications, and ISO Guides related to air quality.

3.1 General terms 3.1.1 Terms describing air quality 3.1.1.1 air quality features of the air which have an impact on humans (e.g., safety and health) and/or the environment Note 1 to entry: Air quality is typically expressed in terms of the presence or absence of air pollution (3.2.1.2) (e.g. emissions (3.2.1.4) or conversions resulting from emissions, e.g., ozone), using one or more measurements. Note 2 to entry: The concept of air quality can be used in reference to ambient air (3.1.1.3), indoor air (3.1.1.5), or workplace air (3.1.1.7). 3.1.1.2 air quality standard specified attribute of the air intended to prevent or minimize impacts on humans (e.g. safety and health) and/or the environment Note 1 to entry: Air quality standards are frequently defined statistically by setting a limit to the concentration of an air pollutant (3.2.1.1) over a specified averaging time (3.1.1.9). Note 2 to entry: Air quality standards can have legal or advisory status in one or more jurisdictions.
3.1.3.4 nanoparticle material with all three dimensions in the size range from approximately 1 nm to 100 nm 3.1.3.5 nanostructured particle particle with structural features smaller than 100 nm, which can influence its physical, chemical and/or biological properties Note 1 to entry: A nanostructured particle can have a maximum dimension substantially larger than 100 nm. EXAMPLE A 500 nm diameter agglomerate (3.1.3.6) of nanoparticles (3.1.3.4) would be considered a nanostructured particle. 3.1.3.6 agglomerate <aerosols> group of particles held together by relatively weak forces, including van der Waals forces, electrostatic forces and surface tension 3.1.4 Terms related to exposure 3.1.4.1 breathing zone space around the nose and mouth from which air is inhaled Note 1 to entry: Technically, the breathing zone corresponds to a hemisphere (generally accepted to be 30 cm in radius) extending in front of the human face, centred on the midpoint of a line joining the ears. The base of the hemisphere is a plane through this line, the top of the head and the larynx. This technical description is not applicable when measuring air within respiratory protective equipment. 3.1.4.2 inhalation exposure situation in which a chemical agent (3.1.2.2) or biological agent (3.1.2.1) is present in the air that is inhaled by a person 3.1.4.3 dermal exposure contact between a chemical agent (3.1.2.2) or biological agent (3.1.2.1) and human skin.BS ISO 4225 pdf download.
