Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 analyte, na substance of interest when performing aquantitative analysis.3.1.1.1 DiscussionFor the purposes of this test method,analytes are considered to be those items listed in Column 1 ofTable 1.4. Description of Referee Analyses4.1
17、 Referee AnalysesWhen conformance to chemicalspecification requirements is questioned, perform refereeanalyses as described in 4.1.1. The reference test methods thatfollow in Sections 7-22, or other test methods qualifiedaccording to 5.4, the Performance Requirements for Rapid TestMethods Section, a
18、re required for referee analysis. A cementshall not be rejected for failure to conform to chemicalrequirements unless all determinations of constituents involvedand all necessary separations prior to the determination of anyone constituent are made entirely by these methods. Whenreporting the result
19、s of referee analyses, specify which testmethods were used.4.1.1 Referee analyses shall be made in duplicate and theanalyses shall be made on different days. If the two results donot agree within the permissible variation given in Table 1, thedetermination shall be repeated until two or three result
20、s agreewithin the permissible variation. When two or three results doagree within the permissible variation, their average shall beaccepted as the correct value. When an average of either two orthree results can be calculated, the calculation shall be based onthe three results. For the purpose of co
21、mparing analyses andcalculating the average of acceptable results, the percentagesshall be calculated to the nearest 0.01 (or 0.001 in the case ofchloroform-soluble organic substances), although some of theaverage values are reported to 0.1 as indicated in the testmethods. When a blank determination
22、 (See Note 1) is speci-fied, one shall be made with each individual analysis or witheach group of two or more samples analyzed on the same dayfor a given analyte.NOTE 1A blank determination is a procedure which follows all stepsof analysis but in the absence of a sample. It is used for detection and
23、compensation of systematic bias.5. Qualification for Different Analyses5.1 Certified Reference MaterialsA Certified ReferenceMaterial (CRM) must be used in the qualification of testmethods and analysts. Acceptable reference cements are NISTCRMs, or other reference cements traceable to the NISTCRMs.
24、The reference cement must have an assigned value forthe analyte being determined. Traceability consists of docu-mentary evidence that the assigned values of the referencecement are compatible with the certified values of NISTCRMs. To demonstrate traceability for a given analyte, per-form a referee a
25、nalysis (as defined in 4.1) on the proposedreference cement, using a NIST CRM for demonstration ofprecision and accuracy. The reference cement is acceptable ifits assigned value agrees with the average referee value withinTABLE 1 Maximum Permissible Variations in ResultsA(Column 1)Analyte(Column 2)M

Prepare three standards, each in duplicate: Standard A shall be selectedPortland cement; Standard B shall be Standard A containing 2.00 % CertifiedCaCO3(such as NIST 915a); Standard C shall be Standard A containing 5.00 %Certified CaCO3. Weigh and pr
33、epare two separate specimens of each standard.Assign the CO2content of Standard A as the average of the two valuesdetermined, provided they agree within the required limit of Column 2.Assign CO2values to Standards B and C as follows: Multiply the Certified CaCO3value (Y) forCO2(from the certificate
34、value) by the mass fraction of Certified CaCO3added tothat standard (percentage added divided by 100); multiply the value determined forStandard A by the mass fraction of Standard A in each of the other standards (thatis, 0.98 and 0.95 for Standards B and C, respectively); add the two values forStan
35、dard A and for Standard B, respectively; call these values B and C.Example:B=0.98A+0.02Y.C=0.95A+0.05Y.Where for Certified CaCO3,ifY=39.9%B = 0.98A + 0.80 % by mass.C = 0.95A + 2.00 % by mass.Maximum difference between the duplicate CO2values for Standards B and C,respectively, shall be 0.17 and 0.2
36、4 % by mass. Averages of the duplicate valuesfor Standards B and C shall differ from their assigned values (B and C) by no morethan 10 % of those respective assigned values.Gw = weight, in grams, of samples used for the test.C114 11b2the limits given in column 3 ofTable 1. If the reference cement,as
37、 supplied, has no documented guarantee of homogeneity,establish its homogeneity by analyzing at least six randomlyselected samples. No result shall deviate from the assignedvalue by more than the limits given in column 2 of Table 1.Anacceptable reference cement must be accompanied by a docu-ment sho
38、wing the data produced in demonstrating traceabilityand homogeneity.5.2 Requirements for Qualification TestingQualified testmethods are required whenever testing is performed for thefollowing reasons: (1) for Referee analyses; (2) for analysesintended for use as a basis for acceptance or rejection o
39、f acement; or, (3) for manufacturers certification. When Refer-ence Methods are used, qualification testing of the analyst isrequired as described in 5.2.1. When Rapid Methods are used,qualification testing of both the analyst and the test method arerequired as described in 5.2.1 and 5.4. Such demon
40、stration maybe made concurrently with analysis of the cement being tested.The requirements for qualification of a test method and analystare summarized in Table 2.5.2.1 Qualification of the analyst shall be demonstrated byanalysis of each analyte of concern using at least one CRMcement in duplicate,
41、 no matter what test method is used (Note2). Duplicate samples shall be tested on different days. Theanalyst is considered qualified when the difference between theduplicate results does not vary by more than the value listed inColumn 2 of Table 1 and the average of the two samples agreeswith the ce
42、rtificate value of the CRM within the limits listed inColumn 3 of Table 1 after correction for minor componentswhen needed. The same test methods to be used for analysis ofcement being tested shall be used for analysis of the CRMcement. If either of the two requirements listed above are notmet, iden
43、tify and correct any problems or errors found in theprocedure. Repeat the determinations until a set of duplicateresults agree within the permissible variations. Requalificationof the analyst is required every two years.NOTE 2When qualifying a Rapid Method with seven CRMs inaccordance with 5.4.2, th
44、e analyst performing the qualification of the testmethod may simultaneously qualify for the requirement of 5.2.1.5.2.2 Qualification data demonstrating that the same opera-tor or analyst making the acceptance determination obtainedprecise and accurate results with CRM cements as per 5.2.1shall be ma
45、de available on request to all parties concernedwhen there is a question of acceptance of a cement. If the CRMused is not a NIST cement, the traceability documentation ofthe CRM used shall also be made available on request.5.3 Alternative AnalysesThe alternative test methods pro-vide, in some cases,
46、 procedures that are shorter or moreconvenient to use for routine determination of certain constitu-ents than are the reference test methods (Note 3). Longer, morecomplex procedures, in some instances, have been retained asalternative test methods to permit comparison of results bydifferent procedur
47、es or for use when unusual materials arebeing examined, where unusual interferences may be sus-pected, or when unusual preparation for analysis is required.Test results from alternative test methods may be used as abasis for acceptance or rejection when it is clear that a cementdoes or does not meet
48、 the specification requirement. Anychange in test method procedures from those procedures listedin Sections 7-30 requires method qualification in accordancewith 5.4, the Performance Requirements for Rapid Test Meth-ods Section.NOTE 3It is not intended that the use of reference test methods beconfine
49、d to referee analysis. A reference test method may be used inpreference to an alternative test method when so desired. A reference testmethod must be used where an alternative test method is not provided.5.3.1 Duplicate analyses and blank determinations are notrequired when using the alternative test methods. If, however,a blank determination is desired for an alternative test method,one may be used and it need not have been obtained concur-rently with the analysis. The final results, when corrected forblank values, should, in either case, be so designated.5.4 Performance Re
