Fuel Ethanol (Ed75-Ed85) Performance Requirements4.1 Fuel ethanol (Ed75-Ed85) shall conform to the require-ments of Table 1.NOTE 1Most of the requirements cited are based on the best technicalinformation currently available. Requirement
22、s for sulfur, phosphorus, andlead are based on the use of gasoline defined in Specification D 4814 andthe understanding that control of these elements will affect catalystlifetime. The lead maximum is limited for Class 1 and Class 2 fuels to thelower limit of the test method. As greater experience i
23、s gained from fielduse of Ed75-Ed85 vehicles and further vehicle hardware developments forthe use of ethanol content fuels occurs, it is expected that many of theserequirements will change.4.1.1 Vapor pressure is varied for seasonal and climaticchanges by providing three vapor pressure classes for f
24、uelethanol (Ed75-Ed85). The seasonal and geographical distribu-tion for three vapor pressure classes is shown in Table 2. Class1 encompasses geographical areas with 6-h tenth percentileminimum ambient temperature of greater than 5C (41F).Class 2 encompasses geographical areas with 6-h tenth percen-t
25、ile minimum ambient temperature of greater than 5C (23F)but less than +5C (41F). Class 3 encompasses geographicalareas with 6-h tenth percentile minimum ambient temperatureless than or equal to 5C (23F).4.1.2 The hydrocarbons blended with the denatured fuelethanol shall have a maximum boiling point
26、of 225C (437F)by Test Method D86, oxidation stability of 240-min minimumby Test Method D 525, and No. 1 maximum copper stripcorrosion by Test Method D 130. The hydrocarbons maycontain aliphatic ethers as blending components as are custom-arily used for automotive spark-ignition engine fuel.4.1.3 The
27、 denaturant for the denatured fuel ethanol used inmaking fuel ethanol (Ed75-Ed85) shall meet the requirementsof Specification D 4806 (see Section 6).4.1.4 Fuel ethanol (Ed75Ed85) of any volatility class shallmeet the same limits for lead and phosphorus as required byU.S. Environmental Protection Age
28、ncy (EPA) regulations forunleaded gasoline.4.1.4.1 The intentional addition of lead or phophorus com-pounds to fuel ethanol (Ed75Ed85) is not permitted. EPAregulations limit their maximum concentrations in unleadedgasoline to 0.05 g lead/US gal (0.013 g/L) and 0.005 gphosphorus/US gal (0.0013 g/L),
29、respectively. Details of theEPA regulations and test methods are available in 40 CFR Part80, Part 80 of Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations.4.1.5 Use of unprotected aluminum in fuel ethanol (Ed75-Ed85) distribution and dispensing equipment will introduceinsoluble aluminum compounds into the

There-fore, unprotected aluminum and unlined nitrile rubber dispens-
44、ing hose should be avoided in fuel ethanol (Ed75-Ed85) fueldistribution and dispensing systems.45. Workmanship5.1 Fuel ethanol (Ed75Ed85) shall be visually free ofsediment and suspended matter. It shall be clear and bright atthe ambient temperature or 21C (70F), whichever is higher.5.2 The specifica
45、tion defines only a basic purity for fuelethanol (Ed75Ed85). The product shall be free of any adul-terant or contaminant that can render the material unacceptablefor its commonly used applications.6. Sampling, Containers, and Sample Handling6.1 The reader is strongly advised to review all intended t
46、estmethods prior to sampling to better understand the importanceand effects of sampling technique, proper containers, andspecial handling required for each test method.6.2 Correct sampling procedures are critical to obtain asample representative of the lot intended to be tested. Useappropriate proce
47、dures in Practice D 4057 for manual methodsampling and in Practice D 4177 for automatic sampling, asapplicable.6.3 The correct sample volume and appropriate containerselection are important decisions that can impact test results.Refer to Practice D 4306 for aviation fuel container selectionfor tests
48、 sensitive to trace contamination. Refer to PracticeD 5854 for procedures on container selection and samplemixing and handling. Where practical, fuel ethanol(Ed75Ed85) should be sampled in glass containers. If samplesmust be collected in metal containers, do not use solderedmetal containers. This is
49、 because the soldering flux in thecontainers and the lead in the solder can contaminate thesample. Plastic containers should be avoided.6.4 A minimum sample size of about 1 L (1 US qt) isrecommended.7. Test Methods7.1 Determine the requirements enumerated in this specifi-cation in accordance with the following test methods:NOTE 2The appropriateness ofASTM test methods cited has not beendemonstrated for use with fuel ethanol (Ed75-Ed85).
