Abstract:

The adoption of ASTM D8396 signals the arrival of routine GCxGC analysis in the petrochemical QC laboratory. Agilent’s Reverse Flow Modulator (RFM) is a low-cost and cryogen-free GCxGC solution with the high retention precision necessary for practical GCxGC. This presentation will demonstrate the application of the Agilent RFM GCxGC system to ASTM D8396 and compare several conventional aviation turbine fuels, synthetic aviation turbine fuels (SATF), finished diesel, and FAMEs using a single GCxGC-FID instrument configuration. Figures of merit, method tuning, and other considerations for long-term success with D8396 and future GCxGC methods will also be explored.
