2014 Collaborative Study for the Determination of Repeatability and Reproducibility of CRM 77

PTM Technical Report

June 2015

A study on repeatability and reproducibility was conducted in 2013 to be able to finalise the CORESTA Recommended Method (CRM) No. 77 for publication. The initial study covered banded lower ignition propensity (LIP) cigarette papers and a tipping base paper with higher diffusion capacity. This report covers the second study carried out in 2014 to verify the results obtained in 2013 and to extend the range of repeatability and reproducibility data to diffusion capacities higher than 0.5 cm/s.
