Classification3.1 Two types of fuel system icing inhibitors are provided asfollows:3.1.1 Type IEthylene glycol monomethyl ether is used asan anti-icing additive in both aviation gasoline and aviationturbine fuels.NOTE 1Ethylene glycol
18、 monomethyl ether (EGME) was previouslyincluded in this specification, last appearing in D417194. EGME isconsidered technically satisfactory for this application, but has beengenerally replaced by DiEGME due to availability, reduced toxicologicalconcerns, and lack of widely available methodology to
19、determine FSIIconcentration in aviation fuels when a mixture is known to be present, orwhen the identity of the FSII present in the fuel is not clearly known.3.2 Type IIAnhydrous isopropanol, also described as99 % grade 2-Propanol or isopropyl alcohol, is used as ananti-icing additive in aviation ga

32、datory Information)A1. TEST METHOD FOR DETERMINING PURITY OF FUEL SYSTEM ICING INHIBITORS (TYPES I AND III)A1.1 ScopeA1.1.1 This test method measures the purity of fuel systemicing inhibitors (Type III). The test results are used to deter-mine if the inhibitor meets the purity requirements listed in
33、Table 2.A1.2 Summary of Test MethodA1.2.1 A representative sample of fuel system icing inhibi-tor (Type III) is injected into a capillary gas chromatograph andthe components of the inhibitor are separated and measuredwith a flame ionization detector. Quantitation is made by peakarea measurement usin
34、g external standardization and a com-puting integrator. As the linear dynamic range of many gaschromatographic detectors is often exceeded for the majorcomponent, the sum of all impurities (all components otherthan the inhibitor) are subtracted from 100 to calculate thepurity of the icing inhibitor.
35、A1.3 Significance and UseA1.3.1 Fuel system icing inhibitor performance (Type III) isbased upon test results using the pure inhibitor in a specificconcentration range. Impurities affect inhibitor solubility in thefuel and reduce the effective concentration. Methods aretherefore needed to check addit
36、ive purity to ensure adequateperformance in the aircraft.A1.4 ApparatusA1.4.1 Gas ChromatographAny gas chromatographic in-strumentation can be used that meets the requirements de-scribed below.A1.4.2 Temperature ControlThe chromatograph must becapable of programmed temperature operation.A1.4.3 Sampl
37、e Inlet SystemAn automatic sampler withsplit injection is recommended, however, manual split injectionis acceptable if care is taken to assure injected sample volumeand rate of injection is constant. On-column injection isacceptable, however, modifications to the procedure are re-quired which are no
38、t specified here.A1.4.4 DetectorA hydrogen flame ionization detector(HFID) is recommended, however, any detector can be usedthat has the sensitivity to measure the purity of the icinginhibitors at the levels listed in Table 2.A1.4.5 ColumnAny gas chromatographic column can beused that provides separ
39、ation of the impurities from the fuelsystem icing inhibitor (Type III). Columns and conditions thathave been used successfully are shown in Table A1.1.A1.4.6 IntegratorProvide means for the determination ofpeak areas for the impurities and the icing inhibitors. This canbe accomplished with a compute
40、r or electronic integrator.A1.4.7 Analytical BalanceCapable of measuring 0.1 mg.A1.5 ReagentsA1.5.1 Purity of ReagentsUse reagent grade chemicals inall tests. Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended that allreagents conform to the specifications of the Committee onAnalytical Reagents of the Ameri
41、can Chemical Society wheresuch specifications are available.4Other grades may be used,provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is of sufficientlyhigh purity to permit its use without lessening the accuracy ofthe determination.A1.5.2 AirUse air (hydrocarbon free) as the HFID oxi-dant. (Warni
42、ngAir is usually supplied as a compressed gasunder high pressure and supports combustion.)A1.5.3 HydrogenUse hydrogen (hydrocarbon free) as thefuel for the flame ionization detector. (WarningExtremelyflammable. Hydrogen is usually supplied as a compressed gasunder high pressure.)A1.5.4 HeliumUse hel
43、ium (hydrocarbon free) as the car-rier gas for the chromatograph. (WarningHelium is usuallysupplied as a compressed gas under high pressure.)A1.5.5 Ethylene GlycolUse ethylene glycol (anhydrous,99 + %) as a calibration standard for analysis of diethyleneglycol monomethyl ether. (WarningToxic, irrita
