3、.1 This test method covers the separation and determina-tion of representative aromatics,nonaromatics,and fatty acidmethyl ester(FAME)fractions in middle distillates that boilbetween 170 C and 400 C,including biodiesel blends with upto 20%by volume of FAME,by solid phase extraction and gaschromatogr
4、aphy.1.2 This test method provides two procedures,A and B.Procedure A is applicable to the petroleum-based middledistillates fuel,and Procedure B is applicable to the biodieselblends with up to 20%by volume of FAME.1.3 This test method is applicable to middle distillatessamples with aromatics conten
5、t ranging from 5%to 50%bymass and biodiesel blends with FAME content in the range of0.5%to 20%by volume.This test method may apply toconcentrations outside these ranges,but the precision has notbeen determined.1.4 For Procedure B,biodiesels in the form of fatty acidethyl ester(FAEE)can also fully el
6、ute into the FAME fraction,and they have the similar FID(flame ionization detector)relative response factors with that of FAME.The determinedcontent of FAME fractions are the sum of concentrations ofFAME and FAEE by this test method(see 3.1.5).1.5 From the investigation results obtained for FAMEdete
7、rmination,the low concentrations of monoglycerides(usu-ally less than 0.5%by mass in biodiesel blends)are notdetectable under the gas chromatographic(GC)condition ofthis test method and will not interfere with the determination ofFAME by Procedure B.As a result,biodiesel blends,conform-ing to the re
8、quirements of Specification D7467,containing upto 20%by volume of biodiesel blendstock meeting therequirements in Specification D6751,typically contain concen-trations of monoglycerides of less than 0.1%by mass.Thediglycerides and triglycerides,if present,are not detected underthe GC condition of th
