NOTE For small test portions, tins and watch glasses can be suitable. 6 Preparation of test portion The laboratory sample shall be reduced as specified in EN 932-2 to produce a test portion. Calculate the minimum mass of the test port

11、 the United Kingdom involving 13 laboratories. The results of the exercise obtained by applying the oven dried method once to a single test portion were: Repeatability r1= 0,11 + 0,079 X where X is the mean value of the water content. Definitions of r1and X are given in EN 932-6. DIN EN 1097-5:2008-
