Precision and Bias510.1 This precision and bias section h
35、as been prepared inaccordance with Practice D 4483. Refer to Practice D 4483 forterminology and other statistical calculation details.10.2 The precision results in this precision and bias sectiongive an estimate of the precision of this test method with thematerials (rubbers) used in the particular
36、interlaboratory pro-gram as described below. The precision parameters should notbe used for acceptance/rejection testing of any group ofmaterials without documentation that they are applicable tothose particular materials and the specific testing protocols thatinclude these test methods.10.3 A Type
37、1 interlaboratory test program was conductedto evaluate precision. Both repeatability and reproducibility areshort term; a period of a few days separates test results. Eachdetermination (measurement) is a test result.10.4 Three different materials, (grades of HNBR), withdifferent degrees of unsatura
38、tion were used for the interlabo-ratory program. These were tested in seven laboratories on twodifferent days one week apart. On each test day duplicate testvalues were obtained. The analysis for precision followed thegeneral procedure as set forth inAnnexA5 of Practice D 4483.Each cell of the Pract
39、ice D 4483 Table 1 basic data formatcontained four values (two test days, two test results each day).The estimates for the repeatability parameters therefore containtwo undifferentiated sources of variation: replicates withindays and between days. The final precision parameters aregiven in Table 1 o
40、f this test method.10.5 The precision of this test method may be expressed inthe format of the following statements that use what is calledan “appropriate value” of r, R, (r), or (R), that is, that valueobtained from Table 1 to be used in decisions about test resultsof this test method.10.6 Repeatab
41、ilityThe repeatability, r, of this test methodhas been established as the appropriate value for any parameteras tabulated in Table 1. Two single test results obtained in thesame laboratory, under normal test method procedures, thatdiffer by more than this tabulated r must be considered asderived fro
42、m different or nonidentical sample populations.10.7 ReproducibilityThe reproducibility, R, of this testmethod has been established as the appropriate value for anyparameter as tabulated in Table 1. Two single test resultsobtained in two different laboratories, under normal testmethod procedures, tha
43、t differ by more than this tabulated Rmust be considered as derived from different or nonidenticalsample populations.10.8 Repeatability and reproducibility expressed as a per-centage of the mean level (r) and (R) have equivalent applica-tion statements as 10.6 and 10.7 for r and R. For the (r) and (
44、R)statements, the difference in the two single test results isexpressed as a percentage of the arithmetic mean of the two testresults.10.9 BiasIn test method terminology, bias is the differ-ence between an average test value and the reference (or true)test property value. Reference values do not exi
45、st for this testmethod since the value (of the test property) is exclusivelydefined by the test method. Bias, therefore, cannot be deter-mined.NOTE 1Appearance of a band at wavenumber 696 cm1in theinfrared spectrum indicates inadequate purification.NOTE 2Some grades of hydrogenated nitrile rubber ex
46、hibit an addi-tional nitrile band at wavenumber 2214 cm1. In this case, calculate A(ACN) = A (2236) + A (2214) and use A (ACN) for further calculations.NOTE 3Sr= within-laboratory standard deviation; r = repeatability(in measurement units); (r) = repeatability (as percent of material aver-age); SR=
47、between-laboratory standard deviation; R = reproducibility (inmeasurement units); (R) = reproducibility (as percent of material average).11.
