MEASURAND   Mass fraction of Platinum in autocatalyst

The key comparison reference value and degrees of equivalence were calculated using the Decision Tree for Key Comparisons as explained on page 16 of the Final Report.

The key comparison reference value xR and its associated standard uncertainty uR is calculated using the Bayesian procedure (Hierarchical Gauss Gauss).

 

        xR = 1893.0 mg/kg     uR =  6.8 mg/kg

The degree of equivalence of laboratory i relative to the key comparison reference value xR is given by a pair of terms, both expressed in mg/kg:

Di = (xi - xR) and its expanded uncertainty Ui at a 95 % level of confidence is calculated as explained on page 18 of the Final Report.
