Significance and Use3.1 Calcium chloride is available in
8、various forms andpurities. A major use is the de-icing and dust control of roads.It is also used in the coal industry for dustproofing andfreezeproofing, in foods, in electrolytic cells, and in refrigera-tion brines. The test methods listed in 1.2 provide proceduresfor analyzing calcium chloride to
9、determine if it is suitable forits intended use.4. Reagents4.1 Purity of ReagentsReagent grade chemicals shall beused in all tests. Unless otherwise indicated, these shallconform to the specifications of the Committee on AnalyticalReagents of the American Chemical Society, where suchspecifications a
10、re available.4Other grades may be used, pro-vided it is first ascertained that the reagent is of sufficientlyhigh purity to permit its use without lessening the accuracy ofthe determination.4.2 Purity of WaterUnless otherwise indicated, referencesto water shall be understood to mean Type II or Type

Precision and Bias16.1 The following criteria should be used for judging theacceptability of results (see Note 2).16.1.1 Repeatability (Single Analyst)The standard devia-tion of results (each the average of duplicates), obtained by thesame analyst
34、 on different days, has been estimated to be0.139 % absolute at 28 degrees of freedom. Two such valuesshould be considered suspect (95 % confidence level) if theydiffer by more than 0.4 %.16.1.2 Reproducibility (Multilaboratory)The standard de-viation of results (each the average of duplicates), obt
35、ained byanalysts in different laboratories, has been estimated to be0.229 % absolute at 6 degrees of freedom. Two such valuesshould be considered suspect (95 % confidence level) if theydiffer by more then 0.8 % absolute.NOTE 2The precision statements are based on an interlaboratory studyperformed in
36、 1970 on two samples of solid calcium chloride. Eightlaboratories participated in the study analyzing each sample in duplicateon each of two days. Practice E180 was used in developing these precisionstatements.716.2 The bias of the test method has not been determined.MAGNESIUM CHLORIDE, POTASSIUMCHL
