Historical Standard: Standard Test Method for Calculation of Carbon Distribution and Structural Group Analysis of Petroleum Oils by the n-d-M Method<\/h4>\n
\n

ASTM D3238<\/h4>\n

Scope<\/strong><\/p>\n

1.1 This test method covers the calculation of the carbon distribution and ring content (Note 1) of olefin-free petroleum oils from measurements of refractive index, density and molecular weight (n-d-M). This test method should not be applied to oils whose compositions are outside the following ranges:<\/p>\n

1.1.1 In terms of carbon distribution<\/i>\u2014 up to 75 % carbon atoms in ring structure; percentage in aromatic rings not larger than 1.5 times the percentage in naphthenic rings.<\/p>\n

1.1.2 In terms of ring content<\/i>\u2014up to four rings per molecule with not more than half of them aromatic. A correction must be applied for oils containing significant quantities of sulfur.<\/p>\n

Note 1\u2014The composition of complex petroleum fractions is often expressed in terms of the proportions of aromatic rings (R<\/i>A<\/i><\/sub>), naphthene rings (R<\/i>N<\/i><\/sub>) and paraffin chains (C<\/i>P<\/i><\/sub>) that would comprise a hypothetical mean molecule. Alternatively, the composition may be expressed in terms of a carbon distribution, that is, the percentage of the total number of carbon atoms that are present in aromatic ring structures (% C<\/i> A<\/i><\/sub>), naphthene ring structures (% C<\/i>N<\/i><\/sub>), and paraffin chains (% C<\/i>p<\/i><\/sub>).<\/p>\n

1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values in parentheses are for information only.<\/p>\n

1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.<\/i><\/p>\n
