1、Designation: D 323 08An American National StandardStandard Test Method forVapor Pressure of Petroleum Products (Reid Method)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 323; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision,

2、 the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers

3、 procedures for the determina-tion of vapor pressure (see Note 1) of gasoline, volatile crudeoil, and other volatile petroleum products.1.2 Procedure A is applicable to gasoline and other petro-leum products with a vapor pressure of less than 180 kPa (26psi).1.3 Procedure B may also be applicable to

4、 these othermaterials, but only gasoline was included in the interlaboratorytest program to determine the precision of this test method.1.4 Procedure C is for materials with a vapor pressure ofgreater than 180 kPa (26 psi).1.5 Procedure D for aviation gasoline with a vapor pressureof approximately 5

5、0 kPa (7 psi).NOTE 1Because the external atmospheric pressure is counteracted bythe atmospheric pressure initially present in the vapor chamber, the Reidvapor pressure is an absolute pressure at 37.8C (100F) in kilopascals(pounds-force per square inch). The Reid vapor pressure differs from thetrue v

IP 481 is a test method for determination of theair-saturated vapor pressure of crude oil.1.7 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.8 This st

21、ocedure Cutilizes a liquid chamber with two valved openings. ProcedureD requires more stringent limits on the ratio of the liquid andvapor chambers.5. Significance and Use5.1 Vapor pressure is an important physical property ofvolatile liquids. This test method is used to determine the vaporpressure

22、at 37.8C (100F) of petroleum products and crudeoils with initial boiling point above 0C (32F).5.2 Vapor pressure is critically important for both automo-tive and aviation gasolines, affecting starting, warm-up, andtendency to vapor lock with high operating temperatures orhigh altitudes. Maximum vapo

23、r pressure limits for gasoline arelegally mandated in some areas as a measure of air pollutioncontrol.5.3 Vapor pressure of crude oils is of importance to thecrude producer and the refiner for general handling and initialrefinery treatment.5.4 Vapor pressure is also used as an indirect measure of th

24、eevaporation rate of volatile petroleum solvents.6. Apparatus6.1 The required apparatus for Procedures A, C, and D isdescribed inAnnexA1.Apparatus for Procedure B is describedin Annex A2.7. Hazards7.1 Gross errors can be obtained in vapor pressure measure-ments if the prescribed procedure is not fol

25、lowed carefully. Thefollowing list emphasizes the importance of strict adherence tothe precautions given in the procedure:7.1.1 Checking the Pressure GaugeCheck all gaugesagainst a pressure measuring device (see A1.6) after each testto ensure higher precision of results (see 12.4). Read the gaugewhi

26、le in a vertical position and after tapping it lightly.7.1.2 Checking for LeaksCheck all apparatus before andduring each test for both liquid and vapor leaks (see Note 5).7.1.3 SamplingBecause initial sampling and the handlingof samples will greatly affect the final results, employ theutmost precaut

27、ion and the most meticulous care to avoid lossesthrough evaporation and even slight changes in composition(see Section 8 and 12.1). In no case shall any part of the Reidapparatus itself be used as the sample container prior toactually conducting the test.7.1.4 Purging the ApparatusThoroughly purge t

28、he pres-sure gauge, the liquid chamber, and the vapor chamber to besure that they are free of residual sample. This is mostconveniently done at the end of the test in preparation for thenext test (see 12.5 and 15.5).7.1.5 Coupling the ApparatusCarefully observe the re-quirements of 12.2.7.1.6 Shakin

29、g the ApparatusShake the apparatus vigor-ously as directed to ensure equilibrium.8. Sampling8.1 The extreme sensitivity of vapor pressure measurementsto losses through evaporation and the resulting changes incomposition is such as to require the utmost precaution and themost meticulous care in the h

30、andling of samples. The provi-sions of this section shall apply to all samples for vaporpressure determinations, except as specifically excluded forsamples having vapor pressures above 180 kPa (26 psi); seeSection 19.8.2 Sampling shall be done in accordance with PracticeD 4057.8.3 Sample Container S

31、izeThe size of the sample con-tainer from which the vapor pressure sample is taken shall be1 L (1 qt). It shall be 70 to 80 % filled with sample.8.3.1 The present precision statement has been derivedusing samples in 1-L (1-qt) containers. However, samplestaken in containers of other sizes as prescri

32、bed in PracticeD 4057 can be used if it is recognized that the precision couldbe affected. In the case of referee testing, the 1-L (1-qt) samplecontainer shall be mandatory.8.4 The Reid vapor pressure determination shall be per-formed on the first test specimen withdrawn from the samplecontainer. Th

33、e remaining sample in the container cannot beused for a second vapor pressure determination. If necessary,obtain a new sample.8.4.1 Protect samples from excessive heat prior to testing.8.4.2 Do not test samples in leaky containers. They shouldbe discarded and new samples obtained.8.5 Sampling Handli

34、ng TemperatureIn all cases, cool thesample container and contents to 0 to 1C (32 to 34F) beforethe container is opened. Sufficient time to reach this tempera-ture shall be ensured by direct measurement of the temperatureof a similar liquid in a like container placed in the cooling bathat the same ti

42、OR PETROLEUM PRODUCTS HAVING REIDVAPOR PRESSURES BELOW 180 kPa (26 psi)11. Preparation for Test11.1 Verification of Sample Container FillingWith thesample at a temperature of 0 to 1C, take the container from thecooling bath or refrigerator and wipe dry with absorbentmaterial. If the container is not

43、 transparent, unseal it, and usinga suitable gauge, confirm that the sample volume equals 70 to80 % of the container capacity (see Note 4). If the sample iscontained in a transparent glass container, verify that thecontainer is 70 to 80 % full by suitable means (see Note 4).NOTE 4For nontransparent

44、containers, one way to confirm that thesample volume equals 70 to 80 % of the container capacity is to use adipstick that has been pre-marked to indicate the 70 and 80 % containercapacities. The dipstick should be of such material that it shows wettingafter being immersed and withdrawn from the samp

45、le. To confirm thesample volume, insert the dipstick into the sample container so that ittouches the bottom of the container at a perpendicular angle, beforeremoving the dipstick. For transparent containers, using a marked ruler orby comparing the sample container to a like container that has the 70

46、 and80 % levels clearly marked, has been found suitable.11.1.1 Discard the sample if its volume is less than 70 % ofthe container capacity.11.1.2 If the container is more than 80 % full, pour outenough sample to bring the container contents within the 70 to80 % range. Under no circumstances shall an

47、y sample pouredout be returned to the container.11.1.3 Reseal the container, if necessary, and return thesample container to the cooling bath.11.2 Air Saturation of Sample in Sample Container:11.2.1 Nontransparent ContainersWith the sample againat a temperature between 0 and 1C, take the container f

48、romthe cooling bath, wipe it dry with an absorbent material,remove the cap momentarily taking care that no water enters,reseal, and shake vigorously. Return it to the cooling bath fora minimum of 2 min.11.2.2 Transparent ContainersSince 11.1 does not requirethat the sample container be opened to ver

49、ify the samplecapacity, it is necessary to unseal the cap momentarily beforeresealing it so that samples in transparent containers are treatedthe same as samples in nontransparent containers. After per-forming this task, proceed with 11.2.1.11.2.3 Repeat 11.2.1 twice more. Return the sample to thebath until the beginning of the procedure.11.3 Preparation of Liquid ChamberCompletely immersethe open liquid chamber in an upright position and the sampletransfer connection (see Fig. A1.2) in a bath at a temperaturebetween 0 and
