STANDARD REFERENCE MATERIALS: MAJOR CATEGORIES

Standard Reference Materials: Major Categories

The following is essentially a list of the main entries in the table of contents of the current edition of NBS Miscellaneous Publication 260, Standard Reference Materials; Catalog and Price List of Standard Materials Issued by the National Bureau of Standards (See list of publications on page 133), to which the reader is referred for further information. Misc. Pub. 260 contains a descriptive listing of the many different standard materials issued by NBS for calibrating measurement systems or for producing scientific data that can be referred to a common base. A schedule of prices and amounts, as well as directions for ordering, is included. For composition standards, summary tables of analyses are presented to indicate the type of standards presently available. Announcements of new standard reference materials will be made in the Federal Register, in scientific and trade journals, and in the Techanical News Bulletin of the National Bureau of Standards. The current status of the various standard materials will be indicated by an insert sheet available quarterly from the Bureau. Standards of certified chemical composition:

Steels (chip and solid)

Cast iron (chip); white cast iron (solid)

Steel-making alloys

Nonferrous alloys (chip)

Copper-base alloys (solid)

APPENDIX C

FEE LIST

(As of October 1965)

The following tabulation lists the fees that have been established for measurement services described in the schedules that make up the main text of this publication. The items included here are identified in the schedules by a single asterisk (*) in the Fee column.

For further information on NBS policy in regard to fees, see Part 200 above, especially sections 200.110 and 200.111, and the various sections with the title "General" (see Contents).

Items carrying the suffix "z" are automatically excluded from the list, since these services, and consequently also the fees for them, vary according to the requirements of the individual case, as agreed upon in advance by the client and the NBS laboratory concerned.

Also omitted are fees for electrical measurement services in the high-frequency and microwave regions. Concerning these, see schedules 201.800 and 201.900, above.

Revisions of this list will be made from time to time and it is planned to publish them separately. Purchasers of the present publication can receive the up-dated fee lists without charge by sending in the post card provided below, on last page.
