Liquid petroleum product - Determination of the sulfur content in Ethanol (E85) automobile fuel - Wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometric method

Le présent document spécifie une méthode d'essai par fluorescence de rayons X dispersive en longueur d'onde pour le dosage du soufre dans le carburant pour automobiles Éthanol (E85) , dont la teneur en éthanol est comprise entre 50 et 85 pour cent (V/V) pour des teneurs comprises entre 5 mg/kg et 20 mg/kg, à l'aide d'appareils avec excitation monochromatique ou polychromatique. L'échantillon à analyser, placé dans une cellule de mesure, est soumis au rayonnement primaire d'un tube à rayons X. Les taux de comptage de la raie de fluorescence X K-L2,3 du soufre et le taux de comptage du fond spectral sont mesurés. La corrélation entre le taux d'impulsions et la concentration est calculée par le logiciel. Les effets de matrices sont compensés sur la base de paramètres fondamentaux ou à l'aide d'une table de correction. La teneur en soufre est alors déterminée au moyen de cet étalonnage.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
