The standard ASTM E1753-22 Use of Qualitative Chemical Speckle Test Kits for the Detection of Lead in Dry Paint Films specifies a method for detecting lead content in dry paint films using qualitative chemical speckle test kits. This method uses specific reagents to generate visual speckles using chemical reactions to quickly and easily detect the presence of lead in coatings. This standard provides an effective tool for the detection of lead content in coatings in construction, decoration, toys, and Miscellaneous related fields, especially for small-scale or on-site inspections that are not easy to analyze with complex instrumentation. This standard practice helps relevant personnel ensure that Coatings comply with environmental protection and safety health regulations, reducing the risk of lead poisoning.
