10、.4.Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method consists of fluorescence analyses ofdilute solutions of oil in spectroquality cyclohexane.In mostcases the emission spectra,with excitation at 254 nm,over thespectral range from 280 to 500 nm,are adequate for matching.4.2 Identification of the sample is
11、made by direct visualcomparison of the samples spectrum with the spectra frompossible source samples.NOTE1When weathering has occurred,it may be necessary toconsider known weathering trends when matching spectra(Fig.1 and Fig.2).5.Significance and Use5.1 This test method is useful for rapid identifi

15、ted States1 obtained from fuel or storage tanks,or from sand,vegetation,or other substrates.This test method is applicable to weatheredand unweathered neat oil samples.5.2 The unknown oil is identified through the comparison ofthe fluorescence spectrum of the oil with the spectra(obtainedat similar
16、instrumental settings on the same instrument)ofpossible source samples.A match of the entire spectrumbetween the unknown and possible source sample indicates acommon source.6.Interferences6.1 The fluorescence spectrum will be distorted if an oilsample has been contaminated by an appreciable amount,forexample,1%of common chemical impurities such as otheroils that are fluorescent on excitation at 254 nm.NOTE2Storage of samples in improper containers(for example,plastics)may result in contamination
