Materials and Manufacture4.1 The pipets shall be fabricated from borosilicate glass,Type I, Class A or B; or soda-lime glass, Type II, as defined inSpecification E 438.5. Design5.1 ShapePipets shall be straight and of one-piece con-struction
7、. Any cross section of a pipet taken in a planeperpendicular to the longitudinal axis shall be circular.5.2 Delivery TipsDelivery tips shall be made with agradual taper of 10 to 25 mm for capacities up to 2 cm3inclusive, and 15 to 30 mm for the 5-cm3and 10-cm3size(s).The tip end shall be reasonably
8、perpendicular to the longitu-dinal axis of the pipet and shall be firepolished.5.3 Top EndThe 10-cm3and 25-cm3pipet shall have a topend tooled to a diameter of 7 to 9 mm and shall have an overalllength of 15 to 25 mm from the top. The top end shall besuitable for plugging with filtering material. Al
9、l top ends shallbe reasonably perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of thepipet, and shall be firepolished.5.4 Dimensions and Outflow TimesThe limiting dimen-sions and outflow times shall be as shown in Table 1. Outflowtimes shall be determined on unplugged pipets, using distilledwater at 25 6 5C,
10、and by means of a stopwatch.6. Markings6.1 Graduation MarkingsGraduation lines shall be be-tween 0.2 and 0.5 mm in width, and in a plane perpendicular tothe longitudinal axis of the pipet and parallel to each other. Amain graduation line shall extend at least three-fifths of the wayaround the pipet.
11、 The values of all main graduation lines shallbe in Arabic numerals directly above the line referenced.Intermediate graduation lines shall extend at least one-fifth ofthe way around the pipet, and least graduation lines shallextend at least one-seventh of the distance around the pipet.The 0 graduati
12、on line shall be at least 90 mm below the top ofthe pipet on all sizes.6.2 Identification MarkingsEach pipet shall be markedwith the manufacturers or vendors name or trademark, itscapacity, the symbols “TD” (for “to deliver”) and “20C,” andeither a wide band or two narrow bands on the mouthpiece end
13、to signify that the last drop must be blown out to achieve fulldelivery.6.3 CapacityThe pipet capacity, expressed in cubic cen-timetres or millilitres, shall be stated on the package. Theexpected deviation from the stated capacity shall be based on1This specification is under the jurisdiction of AST

Determination of Accuracy and Coefficient ofVariation7.1 Randomly select a minimum of 30 pipets and testgravimetrically, using distilled water.7.1.1 Accuracy
17、The accuracy shall be within the limits ofTable 2 and shall be determined as follows:A 5 X2 V1!/V13 100 (1)where:A = accuracy, %,X= mean of sample measurements, cm3, andV1= stated capacity of pipet, cm3.7.1.2 Coeffcient of VariationThe coefficient of variationshall be within the limits of Table 2 an
18、d shall be determined asfollows:CV 5100 SX(2)S 5 =(X 2 X!2!/n 2 1!# (3)where:CV = coefficient of variation, %,S = standard deviation,X = individual sample measurement, cm3,X= mean of sample measurements, cm3, andn = number of pipets measured.8.
