1、Designation: D1839 11D1839 14Standard Test Method forAmyl Nitrate in Diesel Fuels1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D1839; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in par

2、entheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of 0.1 to 0.5 volume % amyl nitrate in diesel fuels.NOTE 1This test method has been used for the determin

3、ation of hexyl nitrate in diesel fuels, but has not been cooperatively tested for such samples.For the determination of hexyl nitrate, use standards containing nitrate esters of primary hexanol. Use a density of 0.97 in calculating results.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as stan

4、dard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the app

5、licability of regulatorylimitations prior to use.2. Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2D1193 Specification for Reagent WaterD4057 Practice for Manual Sampling of Petroleum and Petroleum Products3. Summary of Test Method3.1 This test method is based on the simultaneous hydrolysis of the ester in

6、 62.5 % sulfuric acid and nitration of m-xylenol bythe nitric acid liberated. The nitroxylenol is distilled from the reaction mixture and reacted with sodium hydroxide to form theyellow sodium salt. Residual diesel fuel is removed by ether extraction. The color is measured spectrophotometrically at

7、452 nm,and the concentration of amyl nitrate is determined by reference to a standard curve.4. Significance and Use4.1 In diesel fuel, the presence of alkyl nitrates such as amyl nitrate, hexyl nitrate, or octyl nitrate causes a higher residue valuethan observed in untreated fuel, which can lead to

8、erroneous conclusions as to the coke forming propensity of the fuel. Thepresence of such alkyl nitrate in the fuel can be determined using this test method. This test method can be used to determine theamount of amyl nitrate that has been added to diesel fuels to improve cetane number. This test met

9、hod is applicable as a basis forjudging compliance with specifications covering amyl nitrate.5. Interferences5.1 Nitrate esters, inorganic nitrate ions, and nitrogen oxides will interfere to give high results.6.

(USPC), Rockville, MD.FIG. 1 Distillation ApparatusD1839 1427.8 m-Xylenol SolutionDilute 4 mL of m-xylenol (2,4-dimethylphenol5) to 100 mL with acetone. Prepare fresh each day.8. Sampling8.1 Samples shall be ta

24、ken in accordance with the appropriate instructions in Practice D4057.9. Preparation of Calibration Curve9.1 Prepare a series of standard samples containing a known amount of amyl nitrate in diesel fuel, covering the range of 0.2to 2.0 mg of amyl nitrate per gram (Note 3). Weigh 0.5-g portions of th

25、ese standards, to the nearest 0.1 mg, into the Squibb-typeseparatory funnels and treat as described in Section 10. Calculate the milligrams of amyl nitrate in each standard by multiplyingthe weight of the standard taken by the corresponding concentration of amyl nitrate. Construct a calibration curv

26、e by plottingabsorbance values as the ordinate and corresponding milligrams of amyl nitrate per 50 mL as the abscissa.NOTE 3Experience with the method indicates that different base stocks of diesel fuels do not cause variations in the results. If low results are obtainedfor a particular fuel, prepar

27、e standards using the fuel in question to check the reaction and recoveries.10. Procedure10.1 Weigh into a separatory funnel a sample of diesel fuel to the nearest 0.1 mg, not exceeding 2 mL (Note 4), and notcontaining more than 1.0 mg of amyl nitrate. Add 2 mL of the m-xylenol solution and shake th

28、oroughly. Add 50 mL of H2SO4.Shake for 30 min on the automatic shaking machine. Transfer the contents of the separatory funnel to the round-bottom flask andwash the funnel with 100 mL of water, combining this rinse with the solution in the flask.NOTE 4Incomplete reaction will take place if more than

29、 2 mL of sample is used.10.2 With the apparatus assembled as shown in Fig. 1, distill the sample into a 50-mL volumetric flask containing 5 mL ofNaOH solution. Collect 40 mL of distillate. Cool, and dilute to volume with water, allowing any floating diesel fuel to be abovethe mark.NOTE 5When the sol

30、ution is not yellow, check the pH. When it is not alkaline, add additional NaOH solution.10.3 Transfer the solution to a separatory funnel and extract with several portions of ether to remove the diesel fuel thatotherwise would cause a turbid water layer.10.4 Filter the water layer through a coarse-

31、texture paper into an absorption cell and measure its absorbance at 452 nm withrespect to water (Note 6). Subtract a blank (Note 7) from the reading and read the milligrams of amyl nitrate from the calibrationcurve (Section 8).NOTE 6The color developed is stable for several hours. It obeys Beers law

32、 over the range from 0.2 to 2.0 mg of amyl nitrate.NOTE 7Obtain a blank by performing the analysis on the samples of diesel fuel and the reagents without the amyl nitrate present. A blank of 0.019absorbance can be used since it is the average obtained on a number of representative diesel fuels.11. C
