11、plestested using this test method have also had used oils and otherproducts blended with them. These variations in color andcomposition have a significant effect upon absorbance charac-teristics of the samples in the region of the visible spectrumwhere azo dyes absorb. Standard operating procedures

12、tocorrect for these background variations would involve runninga neat (undyed) sample and subtracting out the backgroundabsorbance. In most situations involved with the application ofthis test method, however, neat material is not available, so nobackground corrections can be made.4.2.2 The second d

Significance and Use5.1 This test method was developed to provide for theenforcement of 26 CFR 48.4082-1(b), which mandates that alltax-exempt diesel fuels be dyed with an amount of Solvent Red164 at a concentration that is spectrally equivalent to 3.

18、9 lb/103bbl (11.1 mg/L) of Solvent Red 26. It is employed to verify thatthe correct amount of Solvent Red 164 is being added totax-exempt product at terminals or refineries prior to sale, andto detect the presence of Solvent Red 164 in taxed productintended for on-road use.5.1.1 Solvent Red 26 is th

19、e azo dye shown in Fig. 1.Itisthestandard against which the concentration of Solvent Red 164 ismeasured because it is available in a certified pure form.Solvent Red 164 is identical in structure to Solvent Red 26except that it has hydrocarbon (alkyl) chains incorporated toincrease its solubility in

20、diesel and burner fuels. The exactcomposition of Solvent Red 164 will vary from manufacturerto manufacturer and lot to lot depending upon the extent ofalkylation that occurs during production; however, its visiblespectrum is virtually identical to the spectrum of Solvent Red26. Solvent Red 164 is em

21、ployed in the field (instead ofSolvent Red 26) to dye tax-exempt diesel and burner fuelsbecause of its higher solubility and relatively low cost.6.
