Significance and Use5.1 Test Method D2462 for testing for moisture in wool isconsidered satisfactory for acceptance testing of commercialshipments since current estimates of between-laboratory pre-cision are acceptable.5.1.1 In case of a dis

17、pute arising from differences inreported test results when using Test Method D2462 foracceptance testing of commercial shipments, the purchaser andthe supplier should conduct comparative testing to determine ifthere is a statistical bias between their laboratories. Competentstatistical assistance is

18、 recommended for the investigation ofthe bias. As a minimum, the two parties should take a group oftest specimens that are as homogenous as possible and that arefrom a lot of the type material in question. The test specimensshould be assigned in equal numbers to each laboratory fortesting. The avera

19、ge results from the two laboratories should becompared using Students t-Test for unpaired data and anacceptance probability level chosen by the two parties beforethe test is begun. If a bias is found, either its cause must befound and corrected or the purchaser and the supplier mustagree to interpre

20、t future test results in light of the known bias.5.2 This test method is the preferred method for all suitablesamples of wool where it is important to obtain a result freefrom the possible biases, introduced by the conditions dis-cussed in 5.3 and 5.4.5.3 This test method is free from the interferen

21、ces caused bydifferent conditions of ambient atmosphere such as might affectthe results of oven-drying.Aslight amount of residual moisturemay be retained in a specimen subjected to oven-dryingbecause of the relative humidity of the ambient air; however,the amount of moisture retained may be estimate

22、d frompublished data.45.4 This test method is free from the interference caused bynonaqueous volatile material. Such material, when present, iserroneously measured as moisture by oven-drying methods, theextent of the error depending upon the amount and character-istics of any added oils or finishes.

23、5.5 This test method is relatively cumbersome, timeconsuming, and costly compared to oven-drying, and is notrecommended for routine process control, in-plant evaluations,or for other purposes where a high degree of accuracy is notnecessary. The cost of operation can be reduced somewhat byredistillin

24、g the used toluene, which is then suitable for reusewithout further treatment.5.6 Unlike an oven-drying method, any moisture gained orlost by a specimen after its mass has been determined willappear as a direct error in the final result. Since one of theprincipal uses of the method is to determine t

25、he averagemoisture present in large lots of wool or wool products exposedto variable atmospheric conditions, numerous laboratorysamples and test specimens are common. To avoid errors of thetype mentioned above, this procedure includes provisions forstabilizing the sample(s) in the laboratory atmosph

26、ere so that,during the time necessary for selecting, weighing, and trans-ferring the specimens to flasks, gain or loss of moisture whichcannot be accounted for will be minimized. A further advan-tage of the stabilizing process is realized in cases where theinterest is solely in the average moisture

27、content of the sample,and the actual moisture content within the sample is highlyvariable. By stabilizing the sample before selecting thespecimens, equal precision can be achieved with fewer speci-mens.6.
