Precision and Bias11.1 Table 1 is based on a round robin8,9conducted in 1976in accordance with Practice E 691, involving five materialstested by five
31、 laboratories. For each material, all the sampleswere prepared at one source, but the individual specimens wereprepared at the laboratories which tested them. Each test resultwas the average of two individual determinations. Each labo-ratory obtained two test results for each material.NOTE 2The expl
32、anations of r and R (11.2-11.2.3) only are intended topresent a meaningful way of considering the approximate precision of thistest method. The data in Table 1 should not be applied to acceptance orrejection of materials, as these data apply only to the materials tested inthe round robin and are unl
33、ikely to be rigorously representative of otherlots formulations, conditions, materials, or laboratories. Users of this testmethod should apply the principles outlined in Practice E 691 to generatedata specific to their materials and laboratory (or between specificlaboratories). The principles of 11.
34、2-11.2.3 then would be valid for suchdata.11.2 Concept of r and R in Table 1If Srand SRhave beencalculated from a large enough body of data, and for test resultsthat were averages from testing two specimens for each testresult, then:11.2.1 RepeatabilityTwo test results obtained within onelaboratory
35、shall be judged not equivalent if they differ by morethan the r value for that material. The r value is the intervalrepresenting the critical difference between two test results forthe same material, obtained by the same operator using thesame equipment on the same day in the same laboratory.11.2.2
36、ReproducibilityTwo test results obtained by differ-ent laboratories shall be judged not equivalent if they differ bymore than the R value for that material. The R value is theinterval representing the critical difference between two testresults for the same material, obtained by different operatorsu
37、sing different equipment in different laboratories. Only fivelaboratories participated in this round robin, making this valuesomewhat questionable.11.2.3 Any judgment in accordance with 11.2.1 or 11.2.2would have an approximate 95 % (0.95) probability of beingcorrect, provided that the correct numbe
38、r of laboratories hadparticipated.11.3 There are no recognized standards by which to estimatebias of this test method.12.

DISTILLATION OF CYCLOHEXANONEA1.1 The distillation of the cyclohexanone is important,particularly if the
42、refractive index of the solvent is above1.4500 at 20C. To obtain the required purity,a5to10-platecolumn is recommended. Columns in excess of 1 plate arerequired.A1.2 As a measure of the purity of the cyclohexanone, thesolvent should have a refractive index in the range from 1.4498to 1.4499 at 20C.A1
43、.3 It is preferable to use up the freshly distilled cyclo-hexanone within 1 week. The solvent should still be good fora longer time period if (1) the liquid has not taken on a yellowtint, (2) the refractive index has not increased above 1.4500, or(3) the viscosity is 1.95 mm2/s (1.95 cSt) or less.SU
