IMPROVED METHOD FOR ANALYZING AN UNKNOWN MATERIAL AS A BLEND OF KNOWN MATERIALS CALCULATED SO AS TO MATCH CERTAIN ANALYTICAL DATA AND PREDICTING PROPERTIES OF THE UNKNOWN BASED ON THE CALCULATED BLEND

摘要

The current invention is an improvement to the method of US 6,662,116 B2. Specifically, the current invention provides means for comparing the quality of property predictions made using different sets of known (reference) materials and different inspection inputs such that the most accurate prediction is obtained. Further, the current invention increases the flexibility of using viscosity data in the method of US 6,662,116 B2.
