Ordering Information4.1 The purchasing agency shall:4.1.1 Indicate the season and locality in which

27、 the fuel is tobe used,4.1.2 If requested, ensure that the methanol concentrationmeets the requirements for an alternative fuel for United Statesfederal fleets.4.1.3 For further information, see Annex A1 of this speci-fication.5. Methanol Fuel Blends Performance Requirements5.1 Methanol fuel blends

28、shall conform to the requirementsin Table 1.NOTE 1Most of the requirements cited in Table 1 are based on the besttechnical information currently available. As greater experience is gainedfrom field use of methanol-capable vehicles, some of these requirementswill change.5.1.1 The components used to p

29、roduce methanol fuel blendsare limited to methanol and gasoline blendstock as defined in5.2.5.1.2 The intentional addition of lead or phosphorus com-pounds to methanol fuel blends is not permitted.5.2 Gasoline blendstocks used shall meet the requirementsof Table 2. The gasoline blendstock may contai

30、n aliphaticethers as blending components that are used in automotivefuels in some countries outside of North America.5.3 Vapor pressure is varied for seasonal and climaticchanges by providing three vapor pressure classes for methanolfuel blends as follows:(1) Class 1 encompasses geographical areas w

31、ith 6 htenth-percentile minimum ambient temperature of greater than5 C (41 F).(2) Class 2 encompasses geographical areas with 6 htenth-percentile minimum temperatures of greater than 5 C(23 F) but less than or equal to 5 C (41 F).(3) Class 3 encompasses geographical areas with 6 htenth-percentile mi

32、nimum ambient temperature less than orequal to 5 C (23 F).5.3.1 There is a 10 % probability that the highest tempera-ture of the six coldest consecutive hourly temperature readingsD5797 162of a 24 h day will be colder than the 6 h tenth percentileminimum ambient temperature.5.3.2 See 5.4.2 for seaso

34、phical distribu-tion for the three vapor pressure classes is shown in AnnexA1,Table A1.1.5.5 Regulatory and Other Requirements Outside the UnitedStates:5.5.1 Users of this specification are advised to consult withthe applicable regulatory agency for specific requirements fortheir jurisdictions.5.5.2

35、 Users of the specification in geographical areas out-side the United States need to determine the 6 h tenth percentileminimum ambient temperatures for their geographic areas andtimes of year in order to select the appropriate classes of fuel.5.6 Use of unprotected aluminum in methanol fuel blenddis

36、tribution and dispensing equipment will introduce insolublealuminum compounds into the fuel causing plugged vehiclefuel filters. Furthermore, this effect can be exaggerated evenwith protected aluminum by elevated fuel conductivity causedby contact with a nitrile rubber dispensing hose. Therefore,unp

37、rotected aluminum and an unlined nitrile rubber dispensinghose should be avoided in methanol fuel blend distribution anddispensing systems.4,56. Workmanship6.1 The finished fuel blend shall be visually free ofsediment, suspended, or undissolved matter. It shall be clearand bright at the fuel tempera

38、ture at the point of custodytransfer or at a lower temperature agreed upon by the purchaserand seller.NOTE 2Finished fuel should be resistant to phase separation orundissolved matter at the lowest temperatures to which it is likely to besubjected, dependent on the time and place of its intended use.

39、 SeeSpecification D4814, Table X7.1 for guidance.NOTE 3Solubility is temperature dependent. As this fuel cools, somehigh molecular weight additives can become insoluble.6.2 The specification defines only a basic purity for metha-nol fuel blend (M51M85). The product shall be free of anyadulterant or

40、contaminant that can render the material unac-ceptable for its commonly used applications.6.2.1 Manufacturers and blenders of methanol fuel blend(M51M85) shall avoid methanol (for example, improperlyrecycled methanol), or hydrocarbon blend components con-taminated by silicon-containing materials, or

41、 both. Siliconcontamination of gasoline, denatured ethanol, and their blendshas led to fouled vehicle components (for example, sparkplugs, exhaust oxygen sensors, catalytic converters) requiringparts replacement and repairs. Test Method D7757 is a proce-dure for determining silicon that might be app

Sampling, Containers, and Sample Handling7.1 The reader is strongly advised to review all intended

49、 testmethods prior to sampling to better understand the importanceand effects of sampling technique, proper containers, andspecial handling required for each test method.7.2 Correct sampling procedures are critical to obtain asample representative of the lot intended to be tested. Useappropriate procedures in Practice D4057 for manual methodsampling and in Practice D4177 for automatic sampling asapplicable.7.3 The correct sample volume and appropriate containerselection are important decisions that can impact test results.Refer to
