Full Description

1.1This test method covers an analytical scheme using the mass spectrometer to determine the hydrocarbon types present in virgin middle distillates 204C to 343C (400F to 650F) boiling range, 5% to 95% by volume as determined by Test Method D86. Samples with average carbon number value of paraffins between C₁₂ and C₁₆ and containing paraffins from C₁₀ and C₁₈ can be analyzed. Eleven hydrocarbon types are determined. These include: paraffins, noncondensed cycloparaffins, condensed dicycloparaffins, condensed tricycloparaffins, alkylbenzenes, indans or tetralins, or both, C_nH _2n-10(indenes, etc.), naphthalenes, C_nH_2n-14 (acenaphthenes, etc.), C_nH _2n-16(acenaphthylenes, etc.), and tricyclic aromatics.

Note 1:This test method was developed on Consolidated Electrodynamics Corporation Type 103 Mass Spectrometers.
