Bragg optics (monoch

17、romators) create very intense mono-energetic radiation. Acombination of a selected X-ray tube (typically a Pd or Ag anode) with a highly ordered pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) Bragg opticcan be used to create monochromatic radiation of the characteristic radiation of the anode material of the X-ray tube.

23、. Significance and Use5.1 This test method provides measurement of total sulfur in automotive, No. 2 heating, and jet fuels with a minimum of samplepreparation. A typical analysis time is 200180 to 300360 s per sample.5.2 The quality of automotive, No. 2 heating, and jet fuel can be related to the a

24、mount of sulfur present. Knowledge of sulfurconcentration is necessary for processing purposes. There are also regulations promulgated in federal, state, and local agencies thatrestrict the amount of sulfur present in some fuel.5.3 If this test method is applied to petroleum materials with matrices

25、significantly different from the calibration materialsspecified in this test method, the cautions and recommendations in Section 6 should be observed when interpreting the results.2For referenced ASTM standards, visit the ASTM website, www.astm.org, or contact ASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.or

Interferences6.1 When the elemental composition (excluding sulfur) of samples differs significantly from the standards, errors in the sulfurdetermination can result. F

27、or example, differences in the carbon-hydrogen ratio of sample and calibration standards introduceerrors in the determination.6.2 M-85 and M-100 are fuels containing 85 and 100 % methanol, respectively. They have a high oxygen content leading tosignificant absorption of sulfur Ka radiation. Such fue

28、ls can, however, be analyzed using this test method provided either thatcorrection factors are applied to the results (when calibrating with white oils) or that the calibration standards are prepared to matchthe matrix of the sample.6.3 In general, petroleum materials with compositions that vary fro

29、m the calibration samples as specified in Section 11 can beanalyzed with standards made from base materials that are of the same or similar composition. Thus a gasoline may be simulatedby mixing isooctane and toluene in a ratio that approximates the expected aromatic content of the samples to be ana

30、lyzed.Standards made from this simulated gasoline can produce results that are more accurate than results obtained using white oilstandards.7.
