8、ts for Analysis:6.1.1 Mix the aerosol paint container thoroughly for about15 min, using a shaker similar to the Eberbach shaker shown inFig. 1, at the low speed setting. It is essential that the samplesbe well mixed to obtain valid results.6.1.2 Remove the cap and actuator from the can. Put the capo

Puncture thebottom of the can near the edge with a very sharp ice pick.Slowly remove the ice pick from the hole. Leave the hol

Precision and Bias8.1 PrecisionEstimates are based on an interlaboratorystudy in which 1 operator in each of 5 laboratories analyzed induplicate on 2 different days 1 sample of a water-borne aerosol
19、containing 69 to 72 % organic volatiles. The coatings werecommercially supplied. The results were analyzed in accor-dance with Practice E 180. The within laboratory coefficient ofvariation was found to be 1.67 % relative at 9 df and thebetween laboratory coefficient of variation was 2.14 % relativea
20、t 7 df. Based on these coefficients, the following criteriashould be used for judging the acceptability of results at the95 % confidence level.8.1.1 RepeatabilityTwo results, each the mean of dupli-cate determinations, obtained by the same operator on differentdays should be considered suspect if th
