1、Designation: D6600 00 (Reapproved 2017)Standard Practice forEvaluating Test Sensitivity for Rubber Test Methods1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6600; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of

2、last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers testing to evaluate chemicalconstituents, chemical and physical properties of compoundingmaterial

3、s, and compounded and cured rubbers, which mayfrequently be conducted by one or more test methods. Whenmore than one test method is available, two questions arise:Which test method has the better (or best) response to ordiscrimination for the underlying fundamental property beingevaluated? and Which

4、 test method has the least error? Thesetwo characteristics collectively determine one type of technicalmerit of test methods that may be designated as test sensitivity.1.2 Although a comprehensive and detailed treatment, asgiven by this practice, is required for a full appreciation of testsensitivit

5、y, a simplified conceptual definition may be givenhere. Test sensitivity is the ratio of discrimination power for thefundamental property evaluated to the measurement error oruncertainty, expressed as a standard deviation. The greater thediscriminating power and the lower the test error, the better

6、isthe test sensitivity. Borrowing from the terminology inelectronics, this ratio has frequently been called the signal-to-noise ratio; the signal corresponding to the discriminationpower and the noise corresponding to the test measurementerror. Therefore, this practice describes how test sensitivity

7、,generically defined as the signal-to-noise ratio, may be evalu-ated for test methods used in the rubber manufacturingindustry, which measure typical physical and chemicalproperties, with exceptions as noted in 1.3.1.3 This practice does not address the topic of sensitivity forthreshold limits or mi

Summary of Practice4.1 This practice develops the necessary terminology andthe required concepts for defining and evaluating test sensitiv-ity for test methods. Sufficient background information ispresented to place the standard on a firm conceptual andmath

29、ematical foundation. This allows for its broad applicationacross both chemical and physical testing domains. The devel-opment of this practice draws heavily on the approach andtechniques as given in the referenced literature.3,44.2 After the introduction of some general definitions, abrief review of

30、 the measurement process is presented, suc-ceeded by a development of the basic test sensitivity concepts.This is followed by defining two test sensitivity classifications,absolute and relative test sensitivity and two categories, (1) fora limited measured property range and (2) for an extendedprope

31、rty range evaluation. For an extended property range foreither classification, two types of test sensitivity may exist, (1)uniform or equal sensitivity across a range of properties or (2)nonuniform sensitivity which depends on the value of themeasured properties across the selected range.4.3 Annex A

32、1 is an important part of this practice. Itpresents recommendations for using linear regression analysisfor test sensitivity evaluation and recommendations for evalu-ating the precision of test sensitivity.4.4 Appendix X1 is also an important adjunct to thispractice. It gives two examples of relativ

33、e test sensitivitycalculations: (1) for a limited range or spot check program and(2) for an extended range test sensitivity program with adependent (nonuniform) test sensitivity. Appendix X2 givesbackground on transformation of scale often needed for ex-tended range sensitivity and for improved unde

34、rstanding, italso gives the derivation of the absolute test sensitivity for asimple analytical chemical test.5. Significance and Use5.1 Testing is conducted to make technical decisions onmaterials, processes, and products. With the continued growthin the available test methods for evaluating scienti

35、fic andtechnical properties, a quantitative approach is needed to selecttest methods that have high (or highest) quality or technicalmerit. The procedures as defined in this practice may be usedfor this purpose to make testing as cost effective as possible.5.2 One index of test method technical meri

The precision is usually expressed as some multipleof the test measurement standard deviation for a defined testingdomain.

The relationship must be

39、specific for any particular measuring process or test, and, ifthere are two different processes or tests for evaluating the FP,the relationship is generally different for each test.7. Development of Test Sensitivity Concepts7.1 Test DomainThe scope of any potential test sensitivityevaluation program

40、 should be established. Is the evaluation fora limited local testing situation, that is, one laboratory or testlocation? Or are the results to be applied on a global basisacross numerous domestic or worldwide laboratories or loca-tions? If local testing is the issue, the test measurements areconduct

41、ed in one laboratory or location. For global testing, aninterlaboratory test program (ITP) must be conducted. Two ormore replicate test sensitivity evaluations are conducted ineach participating laboratory and an overall or average testsensitivity is obtained across all laboratories. In the context

42、ofan ITP for global evaluation, each replicate sensitivity evalu-ation is defined as the entire set of operations that is requiredto calculate one estimated value for the test sensitivity. Foradditional background on the assessment of precision for thetest sensitivity values attained, see A1.2 and a

43、lso PracticeD4483.7.2 Test Sensitivity ClassificationThere are two classifica-tions for test sensitivity.7.2.1 Class 1 is absolute test sensitivity, or ATS, where theword absolute is used in the sense that the measured propertycan be related to the FP by a relationship that gives absolute ordirect v

44、alues for FP from a knowledge of the MP. In evaluatingtest sensitivity for this class, two or more CMs are used eachhaving documented values for the FP.7.2.2 Class 2 is relative test sensitivity, or RTS, where thetest sensitivity of Test Method 1 is compared to Test Method 2,on the basis of a ratio,

45、 using two or more RMs with differentMP values. This class is used for physical test methods whereno FPs can be evaluated.7.3 Absolute Test SensitivityIn this section absolute ordirect test sensitivity is defined in a simplified manner by theuse of Fig. 1.7.3.1 Development of Absolute Test Sensitivi

46、tyFig. 1 isconcerned with two types of properties: (1) an FP (or singlecriterion or constituent), the value of which is established bythe use of a CM and (2) an MP obtained by applying the testmethod to the CM. A relationship or functionality existsbetween the MP and FP that may be nonlinear. In the

47、application of a particular test, FP1corresponds to MP1andFP2corresponds to MP2. Over a selected region of therelationship, designed by points a and b, the slope, K, of theillustrated curve is approximated by the relationship K =(MP)/(FP). If the test measurement standard deviation forMP denoted as

48、SMP, is constant over this a to b range, theabsolute test sensitivity designated as Ais defined by Eq 1.A5?K ?/SMP(1)The equation indicates that for the selected region of interest,test sensitivity will increase with the increase of the numerical(absolute) value of the slope,|K|andsensitivity will i

Thus, Amay be usedas a criterion of technical merit to select one of a number of testmethods to measure the FP provided that a functionalrelationship, MP = f (FP), can be established for each testmethod.7.3.2 Absolute test sensitivity may not be uniform orconstant across a broad range of MPor FPvalues.
