Summary of Test Method3.1 The sample to be evaluated is to be ground and theresulting mixture placed in the appropriate NIR cell and thespectra taken.3.2 The data will then be compar

5、ed to a reference file andthe value of shive reported as weight percent.4. Significance and Use4.1 Few standards exist to objectively determine flax qual-ity. Shive is the woody core of the stem and has an importanteffect on quality determination. Shive content will vary de-pending on the stage of p

6、rocessing and can determine in whatproducts the fiber can be used. Spectroscopic data provide anaccurate, precise and rapid determination of the amount ofshive in flax fiber.4.1.1 If there are differences of practical significance be-tween reported test results for two or more laboratories,comparati

7、ve tests should be performed by those laboratories todetermine if there is a statistical bias between them, usingcompetent statistical assistance. As a minimum, test samplesthat are as homogeneous as possible are drawn from thematerial from which the disputed test results were obtained,and are rando

8、mly assigned in equal numbers to each labora-tory. These results from the two laboratories should be com-pared using a statistical test for unpaired data, a possibilitylevel chosen prior to the testing series. If a bias is found, eitherits cause must be found and corrected, or future test results fo

9、rthat fiber sample type must be adjusted in consideration of theknown bias.4.2 This test method gives data on shive content of rettedflax fiber which can be used as a basis for: (1) estimating thenet amount of manufacturing fiber obtainable from retted flaxfiber; (2) along with other measurements, p

Care should be taken not to loose any free shive.7.3.2 Each 2-g aliquot is to be ground for 3 min in a SPEX8000 mixer mill.

Preparation of Apparatus8.1 Turn on 6500 and computer and allow enough time forwarm up that 11.1 is satisfied.8.2 Start software.8.3 Begin scan program running diagnostics checking ofsignal to noise ratio and wave length accuracy.8.4 Enter routine scan mode.9. Calibration and Stan

18、dardization9.1 The NIR instrument should be standardized with acalibration set which contains samples with a shive contentranging from 0 to 100 %. This set can be prepared by handseparating fiber and shive, grinding each fraction and preparingblended shive/fiber samples of known composition samples

19、ofknown weight. A calibration equation will be prepared fromthese samples through the use of Partial Least Squares (PLS1),Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) or another suitable statis-tical procedure. These are standard chemometric algorithmswhich will be part of the instrument software package obtain

20、edfrom the manufacturer.9.2 To verify or to account for a difference in particle sizeproduced by a second grinder, a second set of standard sampleswill be run which has been ground using a grinder to providea uniform particle size. These data will be plotted and aslope/bias correction to the spectra

21、l data obtained to accountfor differences in particle size produced by the grinder.9.3 Alternatively the calibration file from the USDA instru-ment can be transferred to the host instrument. This isaccomplished by using a set of standardization samples ob-tained from the manufacturer (Foss in this c

22、ase) and scanningthem on both instruments. A standardization file is built withthe standardization routines in the instrument software andapplied to the calibration file. This file becomes the calibrationfor the host instrument and a deterministic model developed asdescribed in 9.1.310. Conditioning
