Development of an appropriate trapping method for the analysis of metals in aerosols is one of the more challenging tasks for inorganic analytical chemists. Concentrations of many potentially harmful metal constituents of the aerosols generated by these devices are relatively low (μg/g range), so analysts must control environmental contamination of metals in trapped aerosol from the collection devices and ancillary materials used during sample preparation. The issue of contamination makes the use of materials commonly used to trap samples for organic constituents inappropriate for accurate and reliable measurement of metal constituents. In the search for appropriate trapping materials and methods, several approaches have failed because of other problems such as resistance to airflow that is necessary to activate the devices and form an aerosol. This white paper will review selected approaches to trapping aerosols for analysis of metal constituents with appropriate materials and identify problems that have been solved or that remain to be solved before the development of an ideal high-throughput method for aerosol metals analysis.

In this work, two recently published nitinol fatigue datasets with relevance for cardiovascular medical devices are used to probe a range of comparative metrics. Results highlight the importance of selecting an appropriate metric as well as the importance of test planning as both can affect the final conclusion regarding the similarity of two datasets. Additionally, an unsuccessful attempt was made to predict high cycle fatigue strength based on low cycle (i.e., censored) fatigue data using a Coffin-Manson relation, which reinforces the importance of conducting fatigue tests to as many cycles as the intended device lifetime. Lessons learned from this set of analyses can inform future standards work as well as engineering practice.</p>","PeriodicalId":17109,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Testing and Evaluation","volume":"54 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13063156/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147674485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
