Summary of Test Method4.1 The boiling range distribution determination by distilla-tion is simulated by the use of gas chromatography.

21、 Anon-polar open tubular (capillary) gas chromatographic col-umn is used to elute the hydrocarbon components of the samplein order of increasing boiling point.4.2 A sample aliquot is diluted with a viscosity reducingsolvent and introduced into the chromatographic system.Sample vaporization is provid

22、ed by separate heating of thepoint of injection or in conjunction with column oven heating.4.3 The column oven temperature is raised at a specifiedlinear rate to affect separation of the hydrocarbon componentsin order of increasing boiling point. The elution of samplecomponents is quantitatively det

23、ermined using a flame ioniza-tion detector. The detector signal is recorded as area slices forconsecutive retention time intervals during the analysis.4.4 Retention times of known normal paraffin hydrocarbons,spanning the scope of the test method, are determined andcorrelated to their boiling point

24、temperatures. The normalizedcumulative corrected sample areas for each consecutive re-corded time interval are used to calculate the boiling rangedistribution. The boiling point temperature at each reportedpercent off increment is calculated from the retention timecalibration.5. Significance and Use

25、5.1 The boiling range distribution of medium and heavypetroleum distillate fractions provides an insight into thecomposition of feed stocks and products related to petroleumrefining processes (for example, hydrocracking, hydrotreating,visbreaking, or deasphalting). The gas chromatographic simu-latio

26、n of this determination can be used to replace conventionaldistillation methods for control of refining operations. This testmethod can be used for product specification testing with themutual agreement of interested parties.5.2 This test method extends the scope of boiling rangedetermination by gas

27、 chromatography to include medium andheavy petroleum distillate fractions beyond the scope of TestMethod D2887 (538 C).5.3 Boiling range distributions obtained by this test methodhave not been analyzed for correlation to those obtained by lowefficiency distillation, such as with Test Method D86 or D

43、 Reagents and Materials7.1 Carrier GasHelium, hydrogen, or nitrogen of highpurity. The use of alternative carrier gases hydrogen andnitrogen is described in Appendix X2.(WarningHelium andnitrogen are compressed gases under high pressure)Additionalpurification is recommended by the use of molecular s
