3、rmation in the Summary of Changes section was corrected editorially in November 2015.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of the boilingrange distribution of petroleum products. The test method isapplicable to petroleum products and fractions having a finalboiling point of 538 C (1
4、000 F) or lower at atmosphericpressure as measured by this test method. This test method islimited to samples having a boiling range greater than 55.5 C(100 F), and having a vapor pressure sufficiently low to permitsampling at ambient temperature.NOTE 1Since a boiling range is the difference between
5、 twotemperatures, only the constant of 1.8 F C is used in the conversion ofthe temperature range from one system of units to another.1.1.1 Procedure A (Sections 614)Allows a largerselection of columns and analysis conditions such as packedand capillary columns as well as a Thermal ConductivityDetect
6、or in addition to the Flame Ionization Detector. Analysistimes range from 14 min to 60 min.1.1.2 Procedure B (Sections 1523)Is restricted to only3 capillary columns and requires no sample dilution. Inaddition, Procedure B is used not only for the sample typesdescribed in Procedure A but also for the
7、 analysis of samplescontaining biodiesel mixtures B5, B10, and B20. The analysistime, when using Procedure B (Accelerated D2887), is reducedto about 8 min.1.2 This test method is not to be used for the analysis ofgasoline samples or gasoline components.

Terminology3.1 DefinitionsThis test method makes reference to manycommon gas chromatographic
17、procedures, terms, and relation-ships. Detailed definitions of these can be found in PracticesE260, E355, and E594.3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 area slice, nthe area, resulting from the integrationof the chromatographic detector signal, within a specifiedretention time in
18、terval. In area slice mode (see 6.3.2), peakdetection parameters are bypassed and the detector signalintegral is recorded as area slices of consecutive, fixed durationtime intervals.3.2.2 corrected area slice, nan area slice corrected forbaseline offset, by subtraction of the exactly correspondingar

A nonpolarpacked or open tubular (capillary) gas chromatographic col-umn is used to elute the hydrocarbon comp
25、onents of the samplein order of increasing boiling point. The column temperature israised at a reproducible linear rate and the area under thechromatogram is recorded throughout the analysis. Boilingpoints are assigned to the time axis from a calibration curveobtained under the same chromatographic
26、conditions by ana-lyzing a known mixture of hydrocarbons covering the boilingrange expected in the sample. From these data, the boilingrange distribution can be obtained.4.2 Procedure A and Procedure B yield essentially the sameresults. See Sections 14 and 23, and the accompanying researchreports.5.
27、 Significance and Use5.1 The boiling range distribution of petroleum fractionsprovides an insight into the composition of feedstocks andproducts related to petroleum refining processes. The gaschromatographic simulation of this determination can be usedto replace conventional distillation methods fo
28、r control ofrefining operations. This test method can be used for productspecification testing with the mutual agreement of interestedparties.5.2 Boiling range distributions obtained by this test methodare essentially equivalent to those obtained by true boilingpoint (TBP) distillation (see Test Met
29、hod D2892). They are notequivalent to results from low efficiency distillations such asthose obtained with Test Method D86 or D1160.5.3 Procedure B was tested with biodiesel mixtures andreports the Boiling Point Distribution of FAME esters ofvegetable and animal origin mixed with ultra low sulfur di
30、esel.Procedure A6. Apparatus6.1 ChromatographThe gas chromatograph used musthave the following performance characteristics:6.1.1 DetectorEither a flame ionization or a thermalconductivity detector may be used. The detector must havesufficient sensitivity to detect 1.0 % dodecane with a peakheight of
31、 at least 10 % of full scale on the recorder underconditions prescribed in this test method and without loss ofresolution as defined in 9.3.1. When operating at this sensitiv-ity level, detector stability must be such that a baseline drift ofnot more than 1 % of full scale per hour is obtained. Thed
32、etector must be capable of operating continuously at atemperature equivalent to the maximum column temperatureemployed. Connection of the column to the detector must besuch that no temperature below the column temperature exists.NOTE 2It is not desirable to operate a thermal conductivity detector at
33、a temperature higher than the maximum column temperature employed.Operation at higher temperature generally contributes to higher noiselevels and greater drift and can shorten the useful life of the detector.6.1.2 Column Temperature ProgrammerThe chromato-graph must be capable of linear programmed t
34、emperatureoperation over a range sufficient to establish a retention time ofat least 1 min for the IBP and to elute compounds up to aboiling temperature of 538 C (1000 F) before reaching theupper end of the temperature program. The programming ratemust be sufficiently reproducible to obtain retentio
35、n timeD2887 1512repeatability of 0.1 min (6 s) for each component in thecalibration mixture described in 7.8.6.1.3 Cryogenic Column CoolingColumn starting tem-peratures below ambient will be required if samples with IBPsof less than 93 C (200 F) are to be analyzed. This is typicallyprovided by addin
36、g a source of either liquid carbon dioxide orliquid nitrogen, controlled through the oven temperature cir-cuitry. Excessively low initial column temperature must beavoided to ensure that the stationary phase remains liquid. Theinitial temperature of the column should be only low enough toobtain a ca
37、libration curve meeting the specifications of themethod.6.1.4 Sample Inlet SystemThe sample inlet system mustbe capable of operating continuously at a temperature equiva-lent to the maximum column temperature employed, or providefor on-column injection with some means of programming theentire column
38、, including the point of sample introduction, up tothe maximum temperature required. Connection of the columnto the sample inlet system must be such that no temperaturebelow the column temperature exists.6.1.5 Flow ControllersThe gas chromatograph must beequipped with mass flow controllers capable o
39、f maintainingcarrier gas flow constant to 61 % over the full operatingtemperature range of the column. The inlet pressure of thecarrier gas supplied to the gas chromatograph must be suffi-ciently high to compensate for the increase in column back-pressure as the column temperature is raised. An inle
40、t pressureof 550 kPa (80 psig) has been found satisfactory with thepacked columns described in Table 1. For open tubularcolumns, inlet pressures from 10 kPa to 70 kPa (1.5 psig to10 psig) have been found to be suitable.6.1.6 MicrosyringeA microsyringe is needed for sampleintroduction.NOTE 3Automatic
41、 sampling devices or other sampling means, such asindium encapsulation, can be used provided: the system can be operatedat a temperature sufficiently high to completely vaporize hydrocarbonswith atmospheric boiling points of 538 C (1000 F), and the samplingsystem is connected to the chromatographic

43、Table 1.6.3 Data Acquisition System:6.3.1 RecorderA 0 mV to 1 mV range recording potenti-ometer or equivalent, with a full-scale response time of 2 s orless may be used.6.3.2 IntegratorMeans must be provided for determiningthe accumulated area under the chromatogram. This can bedone by means of an e
44、lectronic integrator or computer-basedchromatography data system. The integrator/computer systemmust have normal chromatographic software for measuring theretention time and areas of eluting peaks (peak detectionmode). In addition, the system must be capable of convertingthe continuously integrated
45、detector signal into area slices offixed duration. These contiguous area slices, collected for theentire analysis, are stored for later processing. The electronicrange of the integrator/computer (for example, 1 V, 10 V) mustbe within the linear range of the detector/electrometer systemused. The syst
46、em must be capable of subtracting the area sliceof a blank run from the corresponding area slice of a samplerun.NOTE 4Some gas chromatographs have an algorithm built into theiroperating software that allows a mathematical model of the baselineprofile to be stored in memory. This profile is automatic
47、ally subtractedfrom the detector signal on subsequent sample analyses to compensate forany baseline offset. Some integration systems also store and automaticallysubtract a blank analysis from subsequent analytical determinations.7. Reagents and Materials7.1 Purity of ReagentsReagent grade chemicals
