Summary of Test Method4.1 A gas chromatograph equipped with a methylsiliconeWCOT column is interfaced to a Fourier transform infraredspectrometer. The sample is injected through a cool on-columninjector capable of injecting a small sample siz

18、e withoutoverloading the column.4.2 Calibration is performed using mixtures of specifiedpure oxygenates and aromatic hydrocarbons on a mass basis.Volume % data is calculated from the densities of the indi-vidual components and the density of the sample. Multipointcalibrations consisting of at least

19、five levels and bracketing theconcentration of the specified individual aromatics is required.Unidentified aromatic hydrocarbons present which have notbeen specifically calibrated for are quantitated using theresponse factor of 1,2,3,5-tetramethylbenzene and summedwith the other calibrated aromatic

Significance and Use5.1 Test methods to determine oxygenates, benzene, and thearomatic content of gasoline are necessar

21、y to assess productquality and to meet new fuel regulations.5.2 This test method can be used for gasolines that containoxygenates (alcohols and ethers) as additives. It has beendetermined that the common oxygenates found in finishedgasoline do not interfere with the analysis of benzene and otherarom

22、atics by this test method.6. Apparatus6.1 Gas Chromatograph:6.1.1 System equipped with temperature programmable gaschromatograph suitable for cool-on-column injections. Theinjector must allow the introduction of small (for example, 0.1L) sample sizes at the head of the WCOT column or aretention gap.

23、 An autosampler is mandatory.6.1.2 WCOT column containing a methylsilicone stationaryphase which elutes the aromatic hydrocarbons according totheir boiling points.Acolumn containing a relatively thick filmof stationary phase, such as 4 to 5 m, is recommended toprevent column sample overload.6.2 FTIR

24、 Spectrometer:6.2.1 This test method requires a light-pipe GC/FTIR sys-tem (Fig. 1). No data have been acquired with matrix-isolationor other deposition type systems.6.2.2 The spectrometer must be equipped with a mercury-cadmium-telluride (MCT) detector capable of detecting from atleast 4000 cm-1 to

25、 550 cm-1.6.2.3 The lower limit of 550 cm-1 is necessary for theaccurate determination of benzene. Fig. 2 gives an acceptableinfrared spectra of benzene.7. Reagents and Materials7.1 Carrier GasHelium and hydrogen have been usedsuccessfully. The minimum purity of the carrier gas used mustbe 99.85 mol

26、e %. Additional purification using commerciallyavailable scrubbing reagents is recommended to remove traceoxygen which may deteriorate the performance of the GCWCOT column.7.2 Dilution Solventsn-heptane and methylbenzene (tolu-ene) used as a solvent in the preparation of the calibrationmixture. Reag

27、ent grade. All at 99 % or greater purity. Freefrom detectable oxygenates and aromatics which may interferewith the analysis.7.2.1 Toluene should be used as a solvent only for thepreparation of C9+ components and must be free from inter-fering aromatics. (WarningThe gasoline samples and sol-vents use

28、d as reagents such as heptane and toluene areflammable and may be harmful or fatal if ingested or inhaled.Benzene is a known carcinogen. Use with proper ventilation.Safety glasses and gloves are required while preparing samplesand standards.)FIG. 1 Light-Pipe GC/FTIR SystemFIG. 2 Vapor Phase Spectru

Dewar may beconnected through an electronic solenoid to the MCT coolingreservoir for unattended operation. (WarningHelium andhydrogen are suppli

31、ed under high pressure. Hydrogen can beexplosive and requires special handling. Hydrogen monitorsthat automatically shut off supply to the GC in case of seriousleaks are available from GC supply manufacturers.)7.5 Spectrometer Purge Gas,N2dry air has not been tested,but should be adequate.NOTE 1The

32、FTIR spectrometer can be protected by installing appro-priate filters to remove volatile oils or contaminants that may be presentin commercial low quality nitrogen supplies. A liquid nitrogen dewar maybe used as a source for the nitrogen purge.7.6 Standards for Calibration and Identification, all at

33、 99 %or greater purity (Table 1 and Table 2). If reagents of highpurity are not available, an accurate assay of the reagent mustbe performed using a properly calibrated GC or other tech-niques. The concentration of the impurities which overlap theother calibration components must be known and used t

34、ocorrect the concentration of the calibration components. Be-cause of the error that may be introduced from impuritycorrections, the use of only high purity reagents is stronglyrecommended. Standards are used for calibration as well forestablishing the identification by retention time in conjunction

35、with spectral match.8. Sampling8.1 Make every effort to ensure that the sample is represen-tative of the fuel source from which it is taken. Follow therecommendations of Practice D4057 or its equivalent whenobtaining samples from bulk storage or pipelines. Sampling tomeet certain regulatory specific

36、ations may require the use ofspecific sampling procedures. Consult appropriate regulations.8.2 Take appropriate steps to minimize the loss of lighthydrocarbons from the gasoline sample while sampling andduring analyses. Upon receipt in the laboratory chill the samplein its original container to 0 to

37、 5C (32 to 40F) before andafter a sample is obtained for analysis.8.3 After the sample is prepared for analysis with internalstandard(s), chill the sample and transfer to an appropriateautosampler vial with minimal headspace. Re-chill the remain-der of the sample immediately and protect from evapora

38、tion forfurther analyses, if necessary.9. Calibration Procedure9.1 Preparation of Calibration StandardsPrepare multi-component calibration standards using the compounds listed inTable 1 and Table 2 by mass according to Practice D4307.Prepare calibration solutions as described in 9.1-9.1.4 for eachse

39、t.Adjust these concentrations, as necessary, to ensure that theconcentrations of the components in the actual samples arebracketed by the calibration concentrations. Solid componentsare weighed directly into the flask or vial. The specifiedvolumes of each calibration component are weighed into 100mL

40、 volumetric flasks or 100 mL septum capped vials. Preparea calibration standard as follows. Cap and record the tareweight of the 100 mL volumetric flask or vial to 0.1 mg.Remove the cap and carefully add components to the flask orvial starting with the least volatile component. Cap the flaskand reco

41、rd the net mass (Wi) of the aromatic component addedto 0.1 mg. Repeat the addition and weighing procedure for eachcomponent. Similarly add the internal standard and record itsnet mass (Ws) to 0.1 mg. Store the capped calibration standardsin a refrigerator at 0 to 5C (32 to 40F) when not in use.NOTE

42、2Mix all calibration solutions for at least 30 s on a Vortexmixer after preparation or equivalent. Highly precise sample roboticsample preparation systems are available commercially.

48、ach component are pipetted into respective 100 mLvolumetric flasks or vials while accurately recording themasses. For example, for Set 1, into flask one add 1.0 mLMTBE, 1.0 mL DIPE, 1.0 mL ETBE, 1.0 mLTAME; into flasktwo add 3.0 mL MTBE, 3.0 mL DIPE, 3.0 mL ETBE, 3.0 mLTAME; and so forth. Add the ox

49、ygenate in reverse order oftheir boiling points. The above procedure produces six calibra-tion solutions for each set with the concentrations of eachanalyte at 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, and 20 volume %. 10.0 mL of DME(internal standard) is then added at constant volumes to eachflask or vial while recording its mass. The flasks or vials arethen filled to 100 mL total volume with toluene. It is notnecessary to weigh the amount of solvent added since thecalculations are based on the absolute masses of the calibrationcomponents and the internal standard components.
