1、Designation: D 7220 06An American National StandardStandard Test Method forSulfur in Automotive Fuels by Polarization X-rayFluorescence Spectrometry1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 7220; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,

2、 in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method specifies an energy-dispersive X-rayfluorescence (EDXRF) metho

3、d for the determination of totalsulfur in automotive fuels with a concentration range of 6mg/kg to 50 mg/kg.1.1.1 The pooled limit of quantitation of this test method asobtained by statistical analysis of inter laboratory test results is6 mg/kg sulfur.1.2 A fundamental assumption in this test method

4、 is that thestandard and sample matrix is well matched. Matrix mismatchcan be caused by C/H ratio differences between samples andstandards or by the presence of other heteroatoms.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The preferred concentration units are mg/kg sulfur.1

5、.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2. Referenced Do

Also, it is recommended to take care not to leave the test samplein the instrument after the measurement process has finished. If thespectrometer is equipped wi

Calculation or Interpretation of Results13.1 When using the drift correction monitor described in8.3, calculate a correction factor for changes

22、 given by the spectral decon-volution of the sulfur Ka line after subtracting the backgroundspectrum.13.2.1 The use of the factor F to correct the counting rate ofsulfur is optional.13.3 Calculate the sulfur content of the sample by insertingthe corrected net counting rate in the chosen calibration

31、QC procedure, a portion of the whitemineral oil used to make up the calibration standards should beanalyzed in order to confirm the instrument blank value has notchanged since the initial calibration.X1.2 Prior to routine use of this test method, the usershould determine the average value and contro

See Practice D 6299 and MNL 7.9X1.3 The QC results should be recorded and monitored bycontrol charts or other statistically equivalent techniques todetermine the statistical control status of the total testingprocess. See Practice D 6299 and MNL 7.9X1.4 The frequency of co

33、ntrol testing is dependent on thecriticality of the quality being measured, the demonstratedstability of the testing process, and customer requirements.Generally, a QC sample should be analyzed each testing daywith routine samples. The QC frequency should be increased ifa large number of samples are

34、 routinely analyzed. However,when it is demonstrated that the testing is under statisticalcontrol, the QC testing frequency may be reduced. The QCsample testing precision should be periodically checked againstthe ASTM method precision to ensure data quality. SeePractice D 6299 and MNL 7.9X1.5 It is
