Mix well and determine the pH. Calculate the differencein pH from the initial

Report10.1 Report the following information:10.1.1 The pH of the sample shall be reported to the nearest0.05 pH unit.10.1.2 The pH difference figure (Delta pH) shall be reportedto the

22、 nearest 0.05 pH unit.11. Precision and Bias11.1 This test method is adopted from the leather tanningindustry where it has long been in use and approved fordissemination as a standard method before the inclusion ofprecision and bias statements was mandated. The pH of WetBlue can change significantly

23、 over time after removal from thechrome-tanning vessel. This change happens because chemicalreactions involving the basicity of the chromium sulfatecomplex continue to occur within the Wet Blue. The amountand rate of these pH changes is dependent on the specificprocesses and materials used to manufa

24、cture the Wet Blue. Theuser is cautioned to verify that the precision and bias (orreproducibility) of this method is adequate for the contem-plated application.11.2 A real world precision statement was determinedthrough statistical examination4of 145 results from 9laboratories, on 16 materials over

25、nearly 2 years. Practice E691was followed for the design and analysis of the data. The termsbelow (repeatability and reproducibility) are used as specifiedin Practice E177.11.2.1 Repeatability (r)The difference between repetitiveresults obtained by the same operator in a given laboratoryapplying the

26、 same test method with the same apparatus underconstant operating conditions on identical test material withinshort intervals of time would in the long run, in the normal andcorrect operation of the test method, exceed the followingvalues only in one case in 20.11.2.2 Reproducibility (R)the differen

Nine laboratories participated in thisstudy, testing

29、16 Wet Blue samples. Every “test result” repre-sents an individual determination. The laboratories were askedto report a single test result for 13 materials and duplicate testresults for 3 materials. Except for the absence of replicate testresults from all of the study materials, Practice E691 wasfo

30、llowed for the design and analysis of the data; the details aregive in an ASTM research report.411.3.1 Repeatability (r)The difference between repetitiveresults obtained by the same operator in a given laboratoryapplying the same test method with the same apparatus underconstant operating conditions

36、f beingcorrect, however the precision statistics obtained in this ILSmust not be treated as exact mathematical quantities which areapplicable to all circumstances and uses. The limited numberof materials for which replicate results were reported essen-tially guarantees that there will be times when

37、differencesgreater than predicted by the ILS results will arise, sometimeswith considerably greater or smaller frequency than the 95 %probability limit would imply. Consider the repeatability limitas a guide, and the associated probability of 95 % as only arough indicator of what can be expected.11.

38、4 BiasNo information can be presented on the bias ofthe procedure in Test Method D6657 for measuring pH becauseno material having an accepted reference value was included inthe analysis.11.5 The precision statement was determined through sta-tistical examination of 145 results, from 9 laboratories,

39、on 16materials over nearly 2 years.12.
