29、tory Information)X1. SIGNIFICANCE OF STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS FOR KEROSINEX1.1 ColorAn indication of the overall purity of theproduct, and is a useful parameter in ensuring the freedomfrom trace contamination with heavier products which mayrender the kerosine to be unsuitable for designated criticala

30、pplications. Kerosine that is subjected to long term storage,excessive heat, or both, particularly in summer storage inabove ground tanks, can become unsuitable for use due todegradation and associated loss of Saybolt Color quality. Somecontaminants can adversely affect the performance of kerosine,p

31、articularly in wick-fed, unvented applications like 1-K spaceheaters. Detection of these contaminants may require addi-tional testing, such as sulfur content or distillation. Unlessgross contamination is present, these tests may not readilyidentify the presence of contamination.X1.1.1 Red DyeKerosin

32、e sold exempt from federal motorfuel excise tax sold from terminals may contain the dye SolventRed 164 at a concentration spectrally equivalent to 3.9 lb per1000 barrels of the solid dye standard Solvent Red 26, whererequired in the United States of America (for example, by 26CFR, Part 48). If clear

33、, undyed fuel is desired for tax-exemptapplications, the Internal Revenue Service has provided otheroptions, such as blocked pumps, for consideration. The addi-tion of red dye makes it more difficult to detect contaminationby visual inspection. Kerosine subjected to dying must meetthe minimum Saybol

34、t Color of +16 prior to the introduction ofred dye.X1.2 Mercaptan SulfurMercaptans are limited to pre-clude undesirable side-reactions and to minimize the unpleas-ant odor.X1.3 Doctor TestThe doctor test is an indirect indicationof Mercaptan levels.X1.4 SulfurLimited sulfur content of kerosine may b

35、erequired for special uses or to meet legal requirements forsulfur dioxide emissions.X1.5 DistillationAn indication of the volatility of a fuel.The maximum 10 % and final boiling point limits specifiedestablish a suitable boiling range to readily vaporize thekerosine in normal applications.X1.6 Flas

36、h PointThe flash point of kerosine is usedprimarily as an index of fire hazards. The minimum permis-sible flash point is usually regulated by federal, state, ormunicipal laws and is based on accepted practice in handlingand use.X1.7 Freezing PointThe temperature at which crystals ofhydrocarbons form

37、ed on cooling disappear when the tempera-ture of the fuel is allowed to rise. The waxy crystals may clogthe wick in wick-fed systems and can block filter passages infuel handling systems.X1.8 ViscosityThe measure of internal resistance to flow,and an indication of flowability and lubricity.X1.9 Burn

38、ing QualityAn indication of the kerosine per-formance in critical applications. The inherent burning qualitypotential of the bulk fuel, as determined by conventionalparameters such as smoke point, luminometer number, orhydrogen content, cannot always be fully realized due to theadverse overriding ef

39、fect of trace quantities of certain sulfur,oxygen, or nitrogen compounds that can be present in somekerosines. Thus, the burning quality of kerosine must beevaluated by designation of a suitable bench-type burning test.X1.9.1 Burning tests are essentially performance tests andare a direct method for

40、 determining the quality of the kerosinesfor the specific purpose for which they are intended. However,it is not possible to make tests in all kinds of commercialequipment, or under all the combinations of such factors aslocation, time, temperature, humidity, air currents, and clean-liness. These di

41、fficulties are partially overcome by selectingequipment for the burning test that is known to be severe (TestMethod D 187), and by extending the test beyond the typicaltime interval between cleanings of the lamp in its usual service.X1.9.2 The most important features in Test Method D 187are the shap

42、e and size of the flame. Changes in flame size orshape are generally caused by changes in the portion of thewick adjacent to the flame. Some wick crusts are bushy andincrease flame size; others tend to enclose the surface of thewick and cause flame shrinkage. The worst type of deposit is anirregular

43、 one, sometimes localized as mushroom formations,that produces a distorted flame and usually causes smoking,which is quite objectionable to the user.X1.9.3 The condition of the chimney at the end of theburning test is also important. Illuminating kerosine should notcause objectionable smoke deposit

44、on the chimney. An appre-ciable black sooty deposit is obviously objectionable, but theoperator must always assure himself that it is not caused bydrafts or improper testing techniques. A heavy whitish depositnearly always forms when a new chimney is put into service.X1.10 CorrosionAn indication of

45、the tendency to corrodecopper and copper-alloy components that may be present in thekerosine handling and burner systems.X1.11 Microbial ContaminationRefer to Guide D 6469for a discussion of this form of contamination.D3699063X1.12 Potential Application ConcernsX1.12.1 Red DyeIt is recommended that

46、1-K kerosineused in unvented, wick-fed applications like space heaters beclear and undyed. Red dye can mask the presence of contami-nants like diesel. Some of these contaminants may adverselyaffect the performance of unvented, wick-fed space heaters.Elevated sulfur content, higher aromatics, and ole

47、fin content,associated with diesel contamination, are known to increaseperformance problems with wick-fed, unvented applicationsand can be detrimental to health. Additionally, insufficienthealth testing on red-dyed 1-K for use in unvented, wick-fedapplications, like 1-K space heaters, has also resul

48、ted in arecommendation for the exclusion of red-dyed 1-K usage atthis time. Once additional testing is conducted, a review will bemade and reconsideration given to red-dyed 1-K.X1.12.2 Other Additives and Potential BlendingComponentsThrough field experiences and laboratory data,it has been demonstra

49、ted that certain additives or non-kerosineblending components, or both, can negatively impact burnquality performance in unvented, wick-fed space heaters.Negative performances have been observed in wick-fed appli-cations when 1K kerosine contains nitrate-containing cetaneimprovers at 500 wppm or higher, contains certain lubricityadditives at 5000 wppm or higher, and when biodiesel isblended at 20 vol% or higher. The listing of these materials andtheir respective treat/blend rates is not intended to imply thatlower levels of these materials, o
