Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope *1.1 This test method covers a procedure for the determina-tion of total vapor pressure of pet

3、roleum products usingautomatic vapor pressure instruments. The test method issuitable for testing samples with boiling points above 0C(32F) that exert a vapor pressure between 7 and 110 kPa (1.0and 16 psi) at 37.8C (100F) at a vapor-to-liquid ratio of 4:1.The test method is applicable to gasolines c

4、ontaining oxygen-ates. No account is made of dissolved water in the sample.NOTE 1Because the external atmospheric pressure does not influencethe resultant vapor pressure, this vapor pressure is an absolute pressure at37.8C (100F) in kPa (psi). This vapor pressure differs from the truevapor pressure

5、of the sample due to some small vaporization of the sampleand dissolved air into the air of the confined space.1.1.1 Some gasoline-oxygenate blends my show a hazewhen cooled to 0 to 1 C. If a haze is observed in 8.5, it shallbe indicated in the reporting of results. The precision and biasstatements

6、for hazy samples have not been determined (seeNote 6).1.2 This test method is a modification of Test MethodD 5191 (Mini Method) in which the test chamber is atatmospheric pressure prior to sample injection.1.3 This test method covers the use of automated vaporpressure instruments that perform measur

7、ements on liquidsample sizes in the range from 1 to 10 mL.1.4 This test method is suitable for the determination of thedry vapor pressure equivalent (DVPE) of gasoline andgasoline-oxygenate blends by means of a correlation equation(see 13.2). The calculated DVPE is considered equivalent tothe result

8、 obtained on the same material when tested by TestMethod D 4953.1.5 The values stated in acceptable SI units are regarded asstandard. The values given in parentheses are provided forinformation only.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its

Sampling8.1 General Requirements:8.1.1 The extreme sensitivity of vapor pressure measure-ments to losses through evaporation and the resulting changesin co

30、mposition is such as to require the utmost precaution andthe most meticulous care in the handling of samples.8.1.2 Obtain a sample and test specimen in accordance with10.3 of Practice D 4057, except do not use 10.3.1.8 of PracticeD 4057, Sampling by Water Displacement, for fuels containingoxygenates

31、. Use a 1-L (1-qt) sized container filled between 70to 80 % with sample.8.1.3 Perform the vapor pressure determination on the firsttest specimen withdrawn from a sample container. Do not usethe remaining sample in the container for a second vaporpressure determination. If a second determination is n

32、ecessary,obtain a new sample.8.1.4 Protect samples from excessive temperatures prior totesting. This can be accomplished by storage in an appropriateice bath or refrigerator.8.1.5 Do not test samples stored in leaky containers. Discardand obtain a new sample if leaks are detected.3The following inst

33、ruments have been found satisfactory for use in this testprocedure as determined by interlaboratory testing: Herzog Mini Reid VaporPressure Model MP970available from Varlen Instruments, Inc., 2777 WashingtonBlvd., Bellwood, IL 60104 and ABB Model 4100available from ABB ProcessAnalytics, Lewisburg, W

35、peiaand National Formulary, U.S. Pharmacopeial Convention, Inc. (USPC), Rockville,MD.D 548228.1.6 Do not store samples in plastic (polyethylene,polypropylene, and so forth) containers since volatile materialsmay diffuse through the walls of the container.8.2 Sampling TemperatureCool the sample conta

36、iner andcontents in an ice bath or refrigerator to the 0 to 1C (32 to34F) range prior to opening the sample container. Allowsufficient time to reach this temperature. Verify the sampletemperature by direct measurement of the temperature of asimilar liquid in a similar container placed in the cooling

37、 bathor refrigerator at the same time as the sample.8.3 Verification of Sample Container FillingWith thesample at a temperature of 0 to 1C, take the container from thecooling bath or refrigerator and wipe dry with an absorbentmaterial. If the container is not transparent, unseal it and usinga suitab

38、le gage, confirm that the sample volume equals 70 to80 % of the container capacity (see Note 3). If the sample iscontained in a transparent glass container, verify that thecontainer is 70 to 80 % full by suitable means (see Note 3).8.3.1 Do not perform a vapor pressure test on the sample ifthe conta

39、iner is filled to less than 70 volume % of the containercapacity.8.3.2 If the container is more than 80 volume % full, pourout enough sample to bring the container contents within the 70to 80 volume % range. Do not return any sample to thecontainer once it has been withdrawn.NOTE 3For non-transparen

40、t containers, one way to confirm that thesample volume equals 70 to 80 % of the container capacity is to use adipstick that has been pre-marked to indicate the 70 and 80 % containercapacities. The dipstick should be of such material that it shows wettingafter being immersed and withdrawn from the sa

41、mple. To confirm thesample volume, insert the dipstick into the sample container so that ittouches the bottom of the container at a perpendicular angle, beforeremoving the dipstick. For transparent containers, using a marked ruler orcomparing the sample container to a like container that has the 70

42、and80 % levels clearly marked, has been found suitable.8.3.3 Reseal the container, if necessary, and return thesample container to the cooling bath or refrigerator.8.4 Air Saturation of the Sample in the Sample Container:8.4.1 Non-transparent ContainersWith the sample againat a temperature between 0

43、 and 1C, take the container fromthe cooling bath or refrigerator, wipe it dry with an absorbentmaterial, remove the cap momentarily, taking care that nowater enters, reseal, and shake it vigorously. Return it to thecooling bath or refrigerator for a minimum of 2 min.8.4.2 Transparent ContainersSince

44、 8.3 does not requirethat the sample container be opened to verify the samplecapacity, it is necessary to unseal the cap momentarily beforeresealing it so that samples in transparent containers are treatedthe same as samples in non-transparent containers. Afterperforming this task, proceed with 8.4.

45、1.8.4.3 Repeat 8.4.1 twice more. Return the sample to the bathor refrigerator until the beginning of the procedure.8.5 Verification of Single Phase SamplesAfter drawing atest specimen and injecting it into the instrument for analysis,check the remaining sample for phase separation. If the sampleis c

46、ontained in a transparent container, this observation can bemade prior to sample transfer. When the sample is contained ina non-transparent container, mix the sample thoroughly andimmediately pour a portion of the remaining sample into aclear glass container and observe for evidence of phaseseparati

47、on. A hazy appearance is to be carefully distinguishedfrom separation into two distinct phases. The hazy appearanceshall not be considered grounds for rejection of the fuel. If asecond phase is observed, discard the test and the sample. Hazysamples may be analyzed (see Report section).9. Preparation

48、 of Apparatus9.1 Prepare the instrument for operation in accordance withthe manufacturers instructions.9.2 Prepare the sample introduction accessories, if required,in accordance with the manufacturers instructions.9.3 Chill the sample syringe to between 0 and 4.5C (32 and40F) in a refrigerator or ic

49、e bath. Avoid water contaminationof the syringe reservoir by suitably sealing the outlet of thesyringe during the cooling process.9.4 Clean and dry the test chamber in accordance with themanufacturers instructions. With the test chamber sealed,observe that the instrument display is stable and does notexceed 0.00 6 0.20 kPa (0.00 6 0.03 psi).9.5 If in doubt of the cleanliness of the cell, refer to thecleaning procedure in the manufacturers instructions, or if thedisplay does not return to zero, refer to the calibrationprocedure in the m
