7、Terminology D123.4. Significance and Use4.1 This specification for fineness is intended as a guide forproduction, preparation, and marketing (Note 1) by comparingthe average fiber diameter of a measured specimen with thefineness specifications for the various types listed in Table 1.The standard dev
8、iation which expresses measured variabilityof a specimen may be compared with the average shown inTable X2.1.NOTE 1Test Method D2130 does not include any values for theprecision to be expected in the testing of alpaca fibers. In an interlabora-tory test in which six laboratories each made one test o
9、n each of six typesamples, HTB-CB, HAXB-CB, HAAB-CB, HAB-CB, HLPB-CL, andHSKB-CL, the coefficient of variation of the average fiber diametersbetween laboratories, including test variation, was 3.2, 4.7, 3.8, 4.5, 2.2,and 0.93 % for the respective alpaca types.5. Specification5.1 The fineness of vari
