The key comparison reference values are basically obtained from the weighted means of the results, including a consistency check, as explained on page 9 of the Final Report. They are denoted xR with standard uncertainties uR. |
For each pycnometer, the degree of equivalence of laboratory i with respect to the key comparison reference value is computed as indicated in the headings of Tables 16 to 18. They are expressed in relative terms. |
Pair-wise degrees of equivalence are available from Section 9 of the Final Report. |
