21、 the require-ments of Table 1.NOTE 1Most of the requirements cited are based on the best technicalinformation currently available. Requirements for sulfur, phosphorus, andlead are based on the use of gasoline defined in Specification D 4814 andthe understanding that control of these elements will af

As greater experience is gained from fielduse of Ed75-Ed85 vehicles and further vehicle hardware developments forthe use of ethanol content fuels occurs, it is expected that many of

23、 theserequirements will change.4.1.1 Vapor pressure is varied for seasonal and climaticchanges by providing three vapor pressure classes for fuelethanol (Ed75-Ed85). The seasonal and geographical distribu-tion for three vapor pressure classes is shown in Table 2. Class1 encompasses geographical area

It shall be clear and bright atthe ambient temperature or 21C (70F), whichever is higher.5.2 The specification defines only a basic purity for fuelethanol (Ed75Ed

46、85). The product shall be free of any adul-terant or contaminant that can render the material unacceptablefor its commonly used applications.6. Sampling, Containers, and Sample Handling6.1 The reader is strongly advised to review all intended testmethods prior to sampling to better understand the im

47、portanceand effects of sampling technique, proper containers, andspecial handling required for each test method.6.2 Correct sampling procedures are critical to obtain asample representative of the lot intended to be tested. Useappropriate procedures in Practice D 4057 for manual methodsampling and i

48、n Practice D 4177 for automatic sampling, asapplicable.6.3 The correct sample volume and appropriate containerselection are important decisions that can impact test results.Refer to Practice D 4306 for aviation fuel container selectionfor tests sensitive to trace contamination. Refer to PracticeD 58

49、54 for procedures on container selection and samplemixing and handling. Where practical, fuel ethanol(Ed75Ed85) should be sampled in glass containers. If samplesmust be collected in metal containers, do not use solderedmetal containers. This is because the soldering flux in thecontainers and the lead in the solder can contaminate thesample. Plastic containers should be avoided.6.4 A minimum sample size of about 1 L (1 US qt) isrecommended.7. Test Methods7.1 Determine the requirements enumerated in this specifi-cation
