Extract

Three new fly ash standard reference materials (SRM's) have been produced by CTL under contract with the U.S. National Bureau of Standards (NBS). Each unit of the SRM's consists of approximately ten grams of well-blended fly ash hermetically sealed in a glass vial. Twenty-thousand vials of each SRM were produced. The SRM's will be certified for major and minor chemical elements, loss on ignition, and for the percentage residue on the No. 325 standard sieve. The SRM's are suitable for use in developing new methods of chemical and physical analysis, for checking the performance of instruments and analysts, and for research into the composition and properties of fly ash.
