Although the laboratory procedures, reagents required and materials used are all specified within these documents, there are severalopportunities for test operators to take liberties within the testing and obtain unauthentic results.This paper discusses common pitfalls and some surprising results associated withcommon variances that would appear, at first glance, to be innocuous for the standard test methods TL8135 and NACE TM0208.
