Abstract
The thermocouple calibration program at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) resides within the Chemical Science and Technology Laboratory (CSTL). As discussed in Chapter 5, CSTL is one of seven research laboratories at NIST. CSTL’s mission is to provide the chemical measurement infrastructure for enhancing the productivity and competitiveness of U.S. industry, assuring equity in trade, and improving public health, safety, and environmental quality. Such measurement technology is germane to industrial research and development, product application, improvements in the design and manufacturing of quality products, proof of performance, and marketplace transactions that include the successful entry of U.S. products into international markets.
