20、.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 The boiling range distribution by distillation is simu-lated by the use of gas chromatography. The solvent should notinterfere with measurement of the sample in the 100 to 615Crange, and it should be apolar. A non-polar open tubular(capillary) gas chromatographic column
21、 is used to elute thehydrocarbon components of the sample in order of increasingboiling point.4.2 A sample aliquot is diluted with a viscosity reducingsolvent and introduced into the chromatographic system.Sample vaporization is provided by separate heating of thepoint of injection or in conjunction
22、 with column oven heating.4.3 The column oven temperature is raised at a reproduciblelinear rate to effect separation of the hydrocarbon componentsin order of increasing boiling point. The elution of samplecomponents is quantitatively determined using a flame ioniza-tion detector. The detector signa
23、l integral is recorded as areaslices for consecutive retention time intervals during theanalysis.4.4 Retention times of known normal paraffin hydrocarbonsspanning the scope of this test method (C5-C60) are determinedand correlated to their boiling point temperatures. The normal-ized cumulative corre
24、cted sample areas for each consecutiverecorded time interval are used to calculate the boiling rangedistribution. The boiling point temperature at each reportedpercent off increment is calculated from the retention timecalibration.5. Significance and Use5.1 The boiling range distribution of light an
25、d mediumpetroleum distillate fractions provides an insight into thecomposition of feed stocks and products related to petroleumrefining process, This gas chromatographic determination ofboiling range can be used to replace conventional distillationmethods for control of refining operations. This tes
26、t methodcan be used for product specification testing with the mutualagreement of interested parties.5.2 This test method extends the scope of boiling rangedetermination by gas chromatography to include light andmedium petroleum distillate fractions beyond the scope of TestMethod D 2887 (538C) and b
27、elow Test Method D 6352(700C).5.3 Boiling range distributions obtained by this test methodare theoretically equivalent to those obtained by true boilingpoint (TBP) distillation (see Test Method D 2892). They arenot equivalent to results from low efficiency distillation such asthose obtained with Tes

The integrator/computer systemshall have normal chromatographic software for measuring theretention time and areas of eluting peaks (peak detectionmode). In addition, the system shall be capable of convertingthe continuously integrated de

Reagents and Materials37.1 Carrier GasHelium, nitrogen or hydrogen of highpurity. (WarningHelium and nitrogen are compressed gasesunder high pressure; hydrogen is an extr
42、emely flammable gasunder high pressure.) These gases may be used as the carriergas and should not contain more than 5 mL/m3of oxygen. Thetotal amount of impurities should not exceed 10 mL/m3.Additional purification is recommended by the use of molecu-lar sieves or other suitable agents to remove wat
43、er, oxygen, andhydrocarbons.Available pressure shall be sufficient to ensure aconstant carrier gas flow rate.7.2 HydrogenHydrogen of high purity (for example,hydrocarbon-free) is used as fuel for the flame ionizationdetector (FID). (WarningHydrogen is an extremely flam-mable gas under high pressure.
44、)7.3 AirHigh purity (for example, hydrocarbon-free) com-pressed air is used as the oxidant for the flame ionizationdetector (FID). (WarningCompressed air is a gas under highpressure and supports combustion.)7.4 SolventsUnless otherwise indicated, it is intended thatall solvents conform to the specif
45、ications of the committee onanalytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society wheresuch specifications are available.3Other grades may be usedprovided it is first ascertained that the solvent is of sufficientlyhigh purity to permit its use without lessening the accuracy ofthe determination.7.4.1
46、Carbon Disulfide (CS2)(99+ % pure) may be usedas a viscosity reducing solvent and as a means of reducingmass of sample introduced onto the column to ensure lineardetector response and reduced peak skewness. It is misciblewith asphaltic hydrocarbons and provides a relatively smallresponse with the FI
47、D. The quality (hydrocarbon content)should be determined by this test method prior to use as asample diluent. (WarningCarbon disulfide is extremelyflammable and toxic.)7.5 Cyclohexane (C6H12)(99+ % pure) may be used as aviscosity reducing solvent. It is miscible with asphaltic hydro-carbons, however
48、, it responds well to the FID. The quality(hydrocarbon content) should be determined by this testmethod prior to use as a sample diluent. (WarningCyclohexane is flammable.)7.6 Calibration MixtureA qualitative mixture ofn-paraffins (nominally C5to C60) dissolved in a suitablesolvent. The final concen
49、tration should be approximately onepart of n-paraffin mixture to one hundred parts of solvent. Atleast one compound in the mixture shall have a boiling pointlower than the initial boiling point of the sample beinganalyzed, as defined in the scope of this test method (1.1). Thecalibration mixture shall contain at least 13 known n-paraffins(for example, C6,C7,C8,C9,C10,C12,C16,C20,C30,C40,C50,C52,C60). Boiling points of n-paraffins are listed in Table 1.NOTE 2A suitable calibration mixture can be obtained by dissolvinga polyolefin wax
