Abstract:
Standard method ASTM D8071 provides an automated, fast, and accurate approach to complete compound class characterization of paraffins, isoparaffins, olefins, napththlenes, and aromatics (PIONA) in finished gasoline, while also providing ASTM D6708 equivalency data for ASTM D5769, ASTM D1319, ASTM D3606, and ASTM D5599. Arising from ASTM D8071 is Verified Hydrocarbon Analysis™ (VUV-VHA™) which employs both retention time and spectral information to speciate compounds commonly found in gasoline, while fully characterizing the paraffin, isoparaffin, olefin, naphthene, and aromatic (PIONA) group composition of samples in a 49-minute automated analysis.
