Interferences5.1 A number of substances and class of compounds asso-ciated with condensation or oxidation-reduction reactions in-terfere in the determination of water

32、by Karl Fischer. In crudeoils, the most common interferences are mercaptans andsulfides. At levels of less than 500 g/g (ppm) (as sulfur) theinterference from these compounds is insignificant.
