24、. Summary5.1 Summaries of the various testing procedures are in-cluded in the referenced test methods, or in pertinent sectionsof this specification.6. Significance and Use6.1 Acceptance TestingThe test methods in SpecificationD3218 for the determination of the properties of polyolefinmonofilaments

25、are considered satisfactory for acceptance test-ing of commercial shipments of polyolefin monofilaments,unless specified in the individual test method. These testmethods are the best available and are used extensively in thetrade.6.1.1 If there are differences or practical significance be-tween repo

26、rted test results for two laboratories (or more)comparative test should be performed to determine if there is astatistical bias between them, using competent statistical assis-tance. As a minimum, test samples that are as homogeneous aspossible, drawn from the material from which the disparate testr

27、esults were obtained, and randomly assigned in equal numbersto each laboratory for testing. The test results from the twolaboratories should be compared using a statistical test forunpaired data, at a probability level chosen prior to the testingseries. If a bias is found either its cause must be fo

28、und andcorrected or future test results for that material must beadjusted in consideration of the known bias.7. Sampling and Number of Specimens7.1 Take samples as directed in the applicable materialspecification, or as agreed upon by the purchaser and thesupplier. In the absence of an applicable ma

29、terial specification,or other agreement, take a lot sample and laboratory samples asdirected in Practice D2258.NOTE 2An adequate specification or other agreement between thepurchaser and the supplier requires taking into account variability betweenshipping units, between packages, or ends within a s

30、hipping unit, andbetween specimens from a single package so as to provide a sampling planwith a meaningful producers risk, consumers risk, acceptable qualitylevel, and limiting quality level.7.2 The required number of specimens is covered in thereferenced methods, or in the pertinent sections.8.
