Procedure7.1 For sample analysis, add 50 mL of isopropyl alcohol toa 250-ml Erlenmeyer flask, add 5 drops of ph
18、enolphthaleinindicator solution and titrate to a pink end point with alcoholicKOH solution.7.1.1 Swirl flask contents gently during titration. The endpoint should last for 10 to 15 s. Stopper the flask until thesample is added to minimize CO2contamination.7.2 Pour a weighed sample (about 50.00 6 0.0

Precision and Bias49.1 Repeatability (Single Analyst): At a mean value of0.0018 mg-KOH/g the standard deviation of results (each theaverage of triplicates obtained by the same analyst on twodifferent days) ha
26、s been estimated to be 0.0010 mg-KOH/g atthree degrees of freedom. Two such values should be consid-ered suspect (95 % confidence level) if they differ by more than0.0045 mg-KOH/g.9.2 Reproducibility (Multilaboratory): At a mean value of0.0018 mg-KOH/g the standard deviation of results (each theaver
27、age of triplicates in three different laboratories), obtainedby analysts in different laboratories, has been estimated to be0.0036 mg-KOH/g at two degrees of freedom.
