9. Precision and Bias
9.1 Up to 5 % loss in mass, the results obtained may be considered as correct within 0.5. Above 5 % loss in mass, the numerical limit of error increases 0.01 for every 0.5 % increase in loss by volatilization as shown in Table 1.
9.2 Bias - The procedure in Test Method D6 has no bias because the value of the loss on heating of oil and asphaltic compounds test, is defined in terms of the test method.
