5、nt range covered in the precision sectionareimportant,and careful consideration needs to be given to theseaspects before an ILS is launched.1.3 This guide does not concern itself with the developmentof test methods but rather with gathering the informationneeded for a test method precision statement
6、.1.4 This guide is concerned with test methods which yield asingle numerical figure as the test result,although the singlefigure may be the result of a calculation from a set ofmeasurements.1.5 This guide is designed for tests of properties that arestable,such that bulk samples can be homogenized an
7、dsub-samples can be prepared that will be identical and stablefor the duration of the ILS testing period.This guide is notdesigned for unstable properties or for properties that make itdifficult to obtain stable,representative samples for an ILSconducted at multiple laboratory sites.1.6 This guide r
