Methods for the SI-traceable value assignment of the purity of organic compounds (IUPAC Technical Report)

cover
Metrological traceability to the SI of the result of an analysis for an organic compound is achieved through a calibration hierarchy anchored in a primary calibrator of the compound, the mass fraction content of which is established in a manner traceable within a stated uncertainty to the SI. The source material may be a pure substance Certified Reference Material (CRM) or a laboratory may choose to value assign a pure material with valid methods. The report describes the approach, performance and applicability of the principal methods used to determine organic purity – mass balance, quantitative NMR, thermal methods and other direct assay techniques. A statistical section reviews best practice for combination of data, value assignment as the upper limit values corresponding to 100% purity are reached and how to report and propagate the standard uncertainty associated with the assigned values.
