The loss of mass on drying of the sample, expressed as a percentage by mass, is given by:
×
=
mass, in g of the dish and its lid after process 5.2;
=
mass, in g of the dish, its lid and the test portion before drying (process 5.3);
=
mass, in g of the dish, its lid and the test portion after drying (process 5.4.3 or 5.4.4).
Calculate the loss on drying to the nearest 0,01 %.
The difference in results between two determinations carried out simultaneously or in rapid succession on the same sample, by the same analyst, under the same conditions, shall not exceed 0,1 g of moisture per 100 grams of product.
This repeatability interval should be achieved in 95 % of the times that the method is carried out.
