At the highest metrological level, natural gas standards are commonly prepared gravimetrically as PSMs (primary standard mixtures). This international key comparison is a repeat of CCQM-K1e-g. The mixtures concerned contain nitrogen, carbon dioxide and the alkanes up to butane. The only difference with CCQM-K1e-g is the addition of iso-butane to the list. The results usually agree within 1% (or better) with the key comparison reference value. For ethane, nitrogen and carbon dioxide, the agreement is within 0.5% (or better), and for methane within 0.1% (or better) of the KCRV.Main text.

The mixtures concerned contain nitrogen, carbon dioxide and the alkanes up to butane. The only difference from CCQM-K1e-g is the addition of iso-butane to the list. The agreement of the results in this key comparison is very good. For all parameters, with a few exceptions, the results agree within 0.5% (or better) with the key comparison reference value. For methane, the results are generally within 0.1% (or better) of the KCRV.Main text. To reach the main text of this paper, click on Final Report.
