Abstract
Traceability is an essential property of a measurement result. However, it is recognized that the results of chemical measurements can be lacking in this property. In this paper we try to show how to understand and establish traceability in chemical measurement. The traceability connotation and the necessity of tracing back to SI units are described by means of comparability well-known. The roles and interrelationships of quality assurance, accreditation, calibration, reference material, analytical method, comparison and uncertainty in establishing traceability are explained with the aid of a block diagram. The paper also includes diagrams illustrating the Chinese situation and experience of establishing traceability for chemical measurement in China.
