3、essure instruments to determine the total vapor pressureexerted in vacuum by air-containing, volatile, liquid petroleumproducts, including automotive spark-ignition fuels with orwithout oxygenates (see Note 1). This test method is suitablefor testing samples with boiling points above 0C (32F) thatex
4、ert a vapor pressure between 7 and 130 kPa (1.0 and 18.6psi) at 37.8C (100F) at a vapor-to-liquid ratio of 4:1.Measurements are made on liquid sample sizes in the rangefrom 1 to 10 mL. No account is made for dissolved water in thesample.NOTE 1An interlaboratory study was conducted in 2008 involving
5、11different laboratories submitting 15 data sets and 15 different samples ofethanol-fuel blends containing 25 volume %, 50 volume %, and 75volume % ethanol. The results indicated that the repeatability limits ofthese samples are with in the published repeatability of this test method.on this basis,
6、it can be concluded that D5191 is applicable to ethanol-fuelblends such as Ed75 and Ed85 (Specification D5798) and other ethanol-fuel blends with greater than 10 v% ethanol. See ASTM RR: D021694filed with ASTM for supporting data.2NOTE 2Samples can also be tested at other vapor-to-liquid ratios,temp

If a haze is observed in 8.5, it shallbe indicated in the reporting of results. The precision and biasstatements for hazy samples have not been determined (see

Summary of Test Method4.1 A known volume of chilled, air-saturated sample isintroduced into a thermostatically controlled, evacuated testchamber, or a test chamber with a moveable piston thatexpands the volume after sample introduction, the internalv
24、olume of which is five times that of the total test specimenintroduced into the chamber. After introduction into the testchamber, the test specimen is allowed to reach thermal equi-librium at the test temperature, 37.8C (100F). The resultingrise in pressure in the chamber is measured using a pressur
25、etransducer sensor and indicator. Only total pressure measure-ments (sum of the partial pressure of the sample and the partialpressure of the dissolved air) are used in this test method,although some instruments can measure the absolute pressureof the sample as well.4.2 The measured total vapor pres
26、sure is converted to a dryvapor pressure equivalent (DVPE) by use of a correlationequation (see Eq 1 in 14.2).5. Significance and Use5.1 Vapor pressure is a very important physical property ofvolatile liquids.5.2 The vapor pressure of gasoline and gasoline-oxygenateblends is regulated by various gov
27、ernment agencies.5.3 Specifications for volatile petroleum products generallyinclude vapor pressure limits to ensure products of suitablevolatility performance.5.4 This test method is more precise than Test MethodD4953, uses a small sample size (1 to 10 mL), and requiresabout 7 min to complete the t

41、ctions 7.3, 7.4, 7.7, and 7.8(blended by mass with pentane) are suggested for verificationof instrument performance (see Section 11), based on thereference fuels analyzed in the 2003 interlaboratory study(ILS)7(see Table 1). Such reference fuels are not to be used forinstrument calibration. Table 1

Sampling8.1 General Requirements:8.1.1 The extreme sensitivity of vapor pressure measure-ments to losses through evaporation and the resulting changesin composition is such as to require the utmost precaution andthe most meticulous care in the drawing and handlin
46、g ofsamples.8.1.2 Obtain a sample and test specimen in accordance withPractice D4057, except do not use the “Sampling by WaterDisplacement” section for fuels containing oxygenates. Useeither a 250-mL or 1-L (1-qt) sized container filled between 70and 80 % with sample. For best testing precision (rep
47、roduc-ibility), it is recommended that a 1-L sized container be used.NOTE 7The current precision statements were derived from the 2003ILS7using samples in 250-mL and 1-L (1-qt) clear glass containers.However, samples in containers of other sizes, as prescribed in PracticeD4057, may be used with the
48、same ullage requirement if it is recognizedthat the precision can be affected. The differences in precision resultsobtained from 250-mL and 1-L containers were found to be statisticallysignificant, whereas there was no statistically observable bias detectedbetween 250-mL and 1-L containers.
