CHEMICAL measurements, performed under nominally identical
conditions, yield differing data. The results of corrosion tests
are no exception. Sometimes the difference between values is
less than the measurement accuracy and cannot be detected. At
other times the difference approaches the magnitude of the
values. Unfortunately, corrosion test data tend to be in the
latter category more often than in the former. Paper ID:
