This program was initiated in an attempt to get agreement among the various interested parties as to the factors needed to design a standardized laboratory test to determine the electrochemical efficiency of aluminum anode materials. The primary standard by which the laboratory results were to be judged was a series of field tests on full sized anodes. Briefly, each participant was free to perform the laboratory test that was thought to reproduce best the field test results. Other considerations in selecting a standard test would be the duration of the test and the ease and cost factors associated with it.
