9、 Test Method3.1 A representative sample is introduced into a gas chro-matographic system containing a series of columns and switch-ing valves.As the sample passes through a polar column,thepolar aromatic compounds,bi-naphthenes,and high boiling(200 C)paraffins and naphthenes are retained.The fractio
