Legislation originating from the EU
When the UK left the EU, legislation.gov.uk published EU legislation that had been published by the EU up to IP completion day (31 December 2020 11.00 p.m.). On legislation.gov.uk, these items of legislation are kept up-to-date with any amendments made by the UK since then.

III. Method of quantitative analysis of ternary fibre mixtures by a combination of manual separation and chemical separation U.K.
Wherever possible, manual separation shall be used, taking account of the proportions of components separated before proceeding to any chemical treatment of each of the separate components.
III.1.PRECISION OF THE METHODSU.K.
The precision indicated in each method of analysis of binary fibre mixtures relates to the reproducibility (see Chapter 2 relating to methods for quantitative analysis of certain binary textile fibre mixtures).
Reproducibility refers to the reliability, i.e. the closeness of agreement between experimental values obtained by operators in different laboratories or at different times using the same method and obtaining individual results on specimens of an identical homogeneous mixture.
Reproducibility is expressed by confidence limits of the results for a confidence level of 95 %.
By this is meant that the difference between two results in a series of analyses made in different laboratories would, given a normal and correct application of the method to an identical and homogeneous mixture, exceed the confidence limit only in five cases out of 100.
To determine the precision of the analysis of a ternary fibre mixture the values indicated in the methods for the analysis of binary fibre mixtures which have been used to analyse the ternary fibre mixture are applied in the usual way.
Given that in the four variants of the quantitative chemical analysis of ternary fibre mixtures, provision is made for two dissolutions (using two separate specimens for the first three variants and a single specimen for the fourth variant) and, assuming that E1 and E2 denote the precision of the two methods for analysing binary fibre mixtures, the precision of the results for each component is shown in the following table:
| Component fibre | Variants | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2 and 3 | 4 | |
| a | E1 | E1 | E1 |
| b | E2 | E1 + E2 | E1 + E2 |
| c | E1 + E2 | E2 | E1 + E2 |
If the fourth variant is used, the degree of precision may be found to be lower than that calculated by the method indicated above, owing to possible action of the first reagent on the residue consisting of components b and c, which would be difficult to evaluate.
III.2.TEST REPORTU.K.
III.2.1.Indicate the variant(s) used to carry out the analysis, the methods, reagents and correction factors.U.K.
III.2.2.Give details of any special pre-treatments (see I.6).U.K.
III.2.3.Give the individual results and the arithmetic mean, each to the first decimal place.U.K.
III.2.4.Wherever possible, state the precision of the method for each component, calculated according to the table in Section III.1.U.K.

Timeline of Changes
This timeline shows the different versions taken from EUR-Lex before exit day and during the implementation period as well as any subsequent versions created after the implementation period as a result of changes made by UK legislation.
The dates for the EU versions are taken from the document dates on EUR-Lex and may not always coincide with when the changes came into force for the document.
For any versions created after the implementation period as a result of changes made by UK legislation the date will coincide with the earliest date on which the change (e.g an insertion, a repeal or a substitution) that was applied came into force. For further information see our guide to revised legislation on Understanding Legislation.
