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 design
32、ated criticalapplications. 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
33、 of kerosine,particularly 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
34、Red DyeKerosine sold exempt from federal motorfuel excise tax sold from terminals may contain the dye SolventRed 164 at a concentration spectrally equivalent to at least 3.9lb of the solid dye standard Solvent Red 164 per thousandbarrels of kerosine, where required in the United States ofAmerica (fo
35、r example, by 26 CFR Part 48). If clear, undyedfuel is desired for tax-exempt applications, the Internal Rev-enue Service has provided other options, such as blockedpumps, for consideration. The addition of red dye makes itmore difficult to detect contamination by visual inspection.Kerosine subjecte

38、erosine in normal applications.X1.6 Flash 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 temperatu
39、re at which crystals ofhydrocarbons formed 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 Viscosity The measure of internal resistance to flow,and an indicati
40、on of flowability and lubricity.X1.9 Burning 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
41、 realized due to theadverse overriding effect 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 per
42、formance tests andare a direct method for 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,
43、 air currents, and clean-liness. These difficulties are partially overcome by selectingequipment for the burning test that is known to be severe (TestMethod D187), and by extending the test beyond the typicaltime interval between cleanings of the lamp in its usual service.X1.9.2 The most important f
44、eatures in Test Method D187are the shape 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. T
45、he worst type of deposit is anirregular 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 shoul
46、d notD3699 13b13cause objectionable smoke deposit 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
47、 put into service.X1.10 Corrosion An indication of the tendency to cor-rode copper and copper-alloy components that may be presentin the kerosine handling and burner systems.X1.11 Microbial ContaminationRefer to Guide D6469for a discussion of this form of contamination.X1.12 Potential Application Co
48、ncernsX1.12.1 Red DyeIt is recommended that 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.Elevat
49、ed sulfur content, higher aromatics, and olefin 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 resulted 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 Additiv
