Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers th

3、e determination of individualhydrocarbon components of spark-ignition engine fuels andtheir mixtures containing oxygenate blends (MTBE, ETBE,ethanol, and so forth) with boiling ranges up to 225C. Otherlight liquid hydrocarbon mixtures typically encountered inpetroleum refining operations, such as bl

4、ending stocks (naph-thas, reformates, alkylates, and so forth) may also be analyzed;however, statistical data was obtained only with blendedspark-ignition engine fuels.1.2 Based on the cooperative study results, individual com-ponent concentrations and precision are determined in therange of 0.01 to

5、 approximately 30 mass %. The procedure maybe applicable to higher and lower concentrations for theindividual components; however, the user must verify theaccuracy if the procedure is used for components with concen-trations outside the specified ranges.1.3 The test method also determines methanol,

6、ethanol,t-butanol, methyl t-butyl ether (MTBE), ethyl t-butyl ether(ETBE), t-amyl methyl ether (TAME) in spark ignition enginefuels in the concentration range of 1 to 30 mass %. However,the cooperative study data provided sufficient statistical datafor MTBE only.1.4 Although a majority of the indivi

7、dual hydrocarbonspresent are determined, some co-elution of compounds isencountered. If this test method is utilized to estimate bulkhydrocarbon group-type composition (PONA) the user of suchdata should be cautioned that some error will be encountereddue to co-elution and a lack of identification of

8、 all componentspresent. Samples containing significant amounts of olefinic ornaphthenic (for example, virgin naphthas), or both, constitu-ents above n-octane may reflect significant errors in PONAtype groupings. Based on the gasoline samples in the inter-laboratory cooperative study, this procedure

9、is applicable tosamples containing less than 25 mass % of olefins. However,some interfering coelution with the olefins above C7is pos-sible, particularly if blending components or their higherboiling cuts such as those derived from fluid catalytic cracking(FCC) are analyzed, and the total olefin con

10、tent may not beaccurate.1.4.1 Total olefins in the samples may be obtained orconfirmed, or both, if necessary, by Test Method D 1319(volume %) or other test methods, such as those based onmultidimensional PONA type of instruments.1.5 If water is or is suspected of being present, its concen-tration m

11、ay be determined, if desired, by the use of TestMethod D 1744, or equivalent. Other compounds containingoxygen, sulfur, nitrogen, and so forth, may also be present, andmay co-elute with the hydrocarbons. If determination of thesespecific compounds is required, it is recommended that testmethods for

12、these specific materials be used, such as TestMethods D 4815 and D 5599 for oxygenates, and D 5623 forsulfur compounds, or equivalent.1.6 Annex A1 of this test method compares results of thetest procedure with other test methods for selected compo-nents, including olefins, and several group types fo

13、r severalinterlaboratory cooperative study samples. Although benzene,toluene, and several oxygenates are determined, when doubtfulas to the analytical results of these components, confirmatoryanalyses can be obtained by using specific test methods.1.7 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded

14、 as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are provided forinformation purposes only.1.8 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use.

Helium carrier gas transports the vaporized samplethrough the column, in which it is partitioned into individualcomponents which are sensed with a flame ionization detectoras they elute from the end o

22、f the column. The detector signalis recorded digitally by way of an integrator or integratingcomputer. Each eluting component is identified by comparingits retention time to that established by analyzing referencestandards or samples under identical conditions. The concen-tration of each component i

Though t

26、heiruse is not required, careful review of this test method willdemonstrate the usefulness of a gas chromatograph equippedwith these features. These features will replace the need tocarry out the manual calculations that must be performed aslisted in 8.1 and 8.2.6.2 Inleta capillary split/splitless
