GB/T 41914.2-2022 covers how the properties of fine bubbles in a liquid are named, expressed and sorted - the quality of the liquid medium in which any measurement is made, the use of a size index and a number concentration index, the classification of bubbles by size, and a second classification by the speed at which they rise. Fine bubble technology has spread quickly across a diverse range of fields, and the same suspension can be described in two incompatible ways by two suppliers, so a claim about bubble size or concentration cannot be set against another one unless the terms behind both, and the state of the liquid they were measured in, have been fixed first. Rising velocity earns its own classification because it separates bubbles that reach the surface and are gone from ultrafine bubbles that stay in suspension, which is the property the technology is bought for; an informative annex records observations of how the number of ultrafine bubbles in a liquid holds up over time.

Foreword
This document was issued on 30 December 2022 by the State Administration for Market Regulation; Standardization Administration of the PRC and takes effect on 1 July 2023.
It is a GB/T standard: recommended rather than compulsory, but it is the text a Chinese reviewer applies when assessing a submission.
It is classified under ICS 07.030, Chinese classification A20.
Introduction
In recent years, with the development of bubble measurement technology, the characterization of microbubbles and ultrafine bubbles has become possible. Using these techniques, it was found that the
Fine bubbles remain near steady state for several months.
Micro-bubble technology is a new technology, which has been applied in many fields so far. Therefore, for such a diverse technical field
Establishing proper terminology is critical to commercial trade and product acceptance by a wide range of microbubble users.
To facilitate better communication between users of fine bubbles, this document introduces media (e.g. water) quality standards, as well as particle size indices and number concentration indices.
number. This document also provides an explanation for the classification of fine bubbles by size characteristics and ascent velocity.
It should be pointed out that the motion behavior of bubbles in the medium can be caused by buoyancy or the random Brownian motion caused by the thermal drive/fluctuation process.
Make a decision. Therefore, larger bubbles exhibit buoyancy behavior (float up), while smaller bubbles remain in the liquid medium for random motion.
GB/T 41914 "General Rules for the Use and Measurement of Micro-bubble Technology" aims to apply to the general application of micro-bubble technology.
The principles and requirements for standardization are proposed to be composed of five parts.
--- Part 1.Terminology. The purpose is to define terms and definitions in the field of microbubble technology.
--- Part 2.Classification of fine bubble properties. The purpose is to establish the quality of the liquid medium and the generality of the size and concentration of fine bubbles.
rules and expressions.
--- Part 3.Micro-bubble generation method. The purpose is to describe the microbubble generation method.
--- Part 4.Microbubble bed terms. The purpose is to define the bubble bed of dissolved air flotation (DAF) and its role in the dissolved air flotation process.
Terms related to properties.
--- Part 5.Shelled fine bubbles. The purpose is to establish the concept system of shelled fine bubbles.

4 Basic principle of micro-bubble usage and measurement
4.1 Micro-bubble technology standard system
The purpose of this document is to provide an overall framework and guidelines for those who develop microbubble technical standards, and to facilitate communication among microbubble users.
flow. In order to formulate consistent standards, the following three-level standard system has been established.
a) The first level (Basic Standards) contains general terms, basic concepts and principles that can be used for the measurement and use of micro-bubble technology. This article
Components are an integral part of these base standards and are the basis for the next two levels.
b) The second layer (measurement standards) contains various measurement methods used to characterize e.g. bubble diameter, number concentration index, as well as sampling and sample
