39、hat is subjected to long term storage, excessive heat, or both, particularly in summer storage in above groundtanks, can become unsuitable for use due to degradation and associated loss of Saybolt Color quality. Some contaminants canadversely affect the performance of kerosene,kerosine, particularly
40、 in wick-fed, unvented applications like 1-K space heaters.Detection of these contaminants may require additional testing, such as sulfur content or distillation. Unless gross contaminationis present, these tests may not readily identify the presence of contamination.X1.1.1 Red DyeKeroseneKerosine s

The maximum 10 % and final boiling point limits specified establisha suitable boiling range to readily vaporize the kerosenekerosine in normal applications.X1.6 Flash PointThe flash point of kerosenekerosine is us
46、ed primarily as an index of fire hazards. The minimum permissibleflash point is usually regulated by federal, state, or municipal laws and is based on accepted practice in handling and use.X1.7 Freezing PointThe temperature at which crystals of hydrocarbons formed on cooling disappear when the tempe

The inherent burning qualitypotential of the bulk fuel, as determined by conventional parameters such as smoke point, luminometer number, or hydrogencontent, cannot always be fully realized due to the adverse overriding effect of trace quantities of
49、certain sulfur, oxygen, or nitrogencompounds that can be present in some kerosenes.kerosines. Thus, the burning quality of kerosenekerosine must be evaluated bydesignation of a suitable bench-type burning test.X1.9.1 Burning tests are essentially performance tests and are a direct method for determining the quality of the keroseneskero-sines for the specific purpose for which they are intended.
