KEY COMPARISON

The key comparison CCQM-K18 was started in order to evaluate the equivalence of metrology institutes as a follow-up of the previous study CCQM-P52. As a sample a carbonate buffer solution was used with a composition slightly different to the usual one. There were 13 institutes participating in the comparison using a primary method for pH measurement. The fair agreement between the results reflects increased difficulty in measurement, where the buffer composition may slightly change during the measurement and extrapolation to the start time of measurement is usually necessary.
