Abstract

Meaningful measurements of surface texture can only be made on surfaces free from dirt and contaminants. A literature review of cleaning techniques designed to remove surface contaminants has been conducted. Experimental work to assess the efficacy of current NPL cleaning processes has also been carried out. The alternative methods of cleaning offered no significant advantage over existing NPL techniques. The NPL cleaning processes were found to be suitable for the preparation of samples for surface texture measurements.
