10、 reference standard sample.The spectrometerrecords in a nondestructive fashion the absolute concentrationof hydrogen atoms in the reference standard and test sample.The absolute hydrogen concentrations reported by the integra-tor on the NMR instrument for the standard and test specimensare used as a
