Main text The CCQM key comparison K73.2018 is a follow-up comparison of CCQM-K73. It was performed to demonstrate the capability of the participating institutes to measure the amount content of H+ in hydrochloric acid of 0.1 mol·kg−1 molality. 16 NMIs participated in this comparison. The comparison was coordinated by PTB. The sample showed a slight but significant instability by loss of water of around 0.11 μmol kg−1d−1 corresponding to 0.02 % over the measurement period. Therefore, the results were corrected for this instability. The results of this key comparison show good equivalence between the majority of participants. The equivalence is significantly better compared to the first comparison CCQM-K73. To reach the main text of this paper, click on Final Report.

The CCQM-K34.2016 key comparison for determination of the purity of potassium hydrogen phthalate was organized jointly by the inorganic analysis and electrochemical analysis working groups of CCQM to repeat CCQM-K34 for supporting CMC claims of participating metrology institutes in assaying the amount content of monoprotic weak acid. National Institute of Metrology P.R.China (NIM) acted as the coordinating laboratory of this comparison. Twelve NMIs participated in this key comparison. With the exception of one laboratory that used NaOH-titration, all participants used coulometry. In general a good overlap of results was observed, the suitability of coulometry for assay of high purity materials was demonstrated again, and some possible technical problems were highlighted. The comparison tested the capabilities and methods used for assay of high purity materials. Good result indicates good performance in assaying the purity (amount content) of solid weak acids.

Main text This key comparison is being performed to evaluate the degree of equivalence of measurement procedures to support the participants' claims of Calibration and Measurement Capabilities (CMCs) and to evaluate the capabilities of participants for the determination of the pH of carbonate buffer solutions. This is the fourth APMP key comparison on pH measurement following APMP.QM-K9/P16 (phosphate), APMP.QM-K19/P25 (borate) and APMP.QM-K91/P29 (phthalate). The results have the linkage to CCQM-K18.2016 (carbonate buffer) and were evaluated by comparing the results of the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) and the National Metrology Institute of Japan (NMIJ) performing Harned cell method. The results of PTB and NMIJ were used for the definition of the Key Comparison Reference Value (KCRV). The ensuing pH value was calculated based on the Bates-Guggenheim convention to compare the results of primary and secondary methods. In this comparison measurements of pH were performed only at the temperature of 25 °C. The results demonstrated by most participants are in better agreement than those in CCQM-K18.2016.

The APMP.QM-K91 was organised by TCQM of APMP to test the abilities of the national metrology institutes in the APMP region to measure a pH value of a phthalate buffer. This APMP comparison on pH measurement was proposed by the National Metrology Institute of Japan at the APMP-TCQM meeting held September 22–23, 2014. After approval by TCQM, the comparison has been conducted by NMIJ. The comparison is a key comparison following CCQM-K91. The comparison material was a phthalate buffer of pH around 4.0 and the measurement temperatures were 15 °C, 25 °C and 37 °C. This is the third APMP key comparison on pH measurement and the fifth APMP comparison on pH measurement following APMP.QM-P06 (two phosphate buffers) in 2004, APMP.QM-P09 (a phthalate buffer) in 2006, APMP.QM-K9/APMP.QM-P16 (a phosphate buffer) in 2010-2011 and APMP.QM-K19/APMP.QM-P25 (a borate buffer) in 2013-2014. The results can be used further by any participant to support its CMC claim at least for a phthalate buffer. That claim will concern the pH method employed by the participant during this comparison and will cover the used temperature(s) or the full temperature range between 15°C and 37 °C for the participant which measured pH values at the three temperatures.
