Estimates of the non‐uniqueness of the ITS‐90 are reported based on comparisons of capsule‐style standard platinum resistance thermometers at more than eighty temperatures between 13.8033 K and 273.16 K. Using the measurements reported here, as well as those of Ward and Compton and Head, we conclude that the non‐uniqueness takes on its largest value (± 0.4 mK) in the range from 83.8058 K to 234.3156 K. This result may have been anticipated due to the fact that the argon and mercury fixed points are separated in temperature by more than 150 K, with no intermediate calibration points. Discussions concerning the details of the temperature scale that will eventually replace the ITS‐90 must consider this fact if the non‐uniqueness is to be minimized. At the present time, however, there are no candidate fixed points within this temperature range that are realizable to the required level of accuracy for inclusion into a revised International Temperature Scale.
