2、he year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon(e)indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis test method consists of three individual procedur
3、es designated as A,B,and C.Procedure A(Detailed Hydrocarbon Analysis-DHA)was the first procedure submitted to be tested and developedbyASTM.Procedure B(Individual HydrocarbonAnalysis-IHA)is derived from the revised CanadianCAN/CGSB-3.0 No.14-3-94 test method.Procedure C(DHC)is derived and is consist
4、ent with theFrench Standard NF M07-086.Procedures A and B employ 100 metre poly(dimethyl)siloxane opentubular capillary columns and procedure C employs a 50 metre poly(dimethyl)siloxane capillarycolumn.In addition,Procedure A requires the use of a short precolumn(injector end)located in theGC oven a
5、nd connected to the 100 metre capillary column.The precolumn is used to optimizeseparation selectivity.Similar samples were used to obtain the precision statements for Procedures Aand B while the precision for Procedure C was obtained with a different sample set.All threeprocedures used similar ASTM
6、 approved statistical procedures for the calculation of the precisionstatements.Although the three procedures share similar instrumentation requirements and practice ofthe gas chromatographic art,the scope as indicated,apparatus description,reagents and materials,system optimization,calibration,calc
7、ulation and precision sections are presented separately for eachprocedure to allow the user to perform effectively each procedure as practiced in the originalinterlaboratory cooperative study.It is very important that the user of this test method specify clearlywhich procedure(A,B,or C)was used when
8、 comparing results with other laboratories or reportingresults.Appendix X1 of this test method contains comparison data for Procedures A and B for severalinterlaboratory cooperative study samples with other types of test methods for several selectedoxygenates and hydrocarbon types.Comparison data fo

10、ETBE,ethanol,and so forth.)with boiling ranges upto 225C.Other light liquid hydrocarbon mixtures typicallyencountered in petroleum refining operations,such as,blendingstocks(naphthas,reformates,alkylates,and so forth.)may alsobe analyzed;however,statistical data was obtained only withblended spark-i
