Wet volume gives an indication of the degree of loftiness and openness of asbestos fiber.

1.1 This test method covers the appraisal of asbestos fiber groups 4 to 7 in terms of their occupied volumes when immersed in water.

1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
