About the Course

This course covers the determination, by ultraviolet spectrophotometry, of the total concentration of naphthalene, acenaphthene, and alkylated derivatives of these hydrocarbons in jet fuels. This test method is designed to analyze fuels containing not more than 5 percent of such components and having end points below 315 degrees C (600 degrees F); however, the range of concentrations used in the interlaboratory test programs which established the precision statements for this test method were 0.03 to 4.25 volume percent for Procedure A, and 0.08 to 5.6 volume percent for Procedure B. This test method determines the maximum amount of naphthalenes that could be present.

The course takes approximately 1 hour to complete and includes instructional video content, interactive knowledge checks, and a self-grading quiz. Downloadable resources include a pdf of the standard.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Identify interferences as described for Test Method ASTM D1840.
  • Identify apparatus and solvents used for determination, by ultraviolet spectrophotometry, of the total concentration of naphthalene, acenaphthene, and alkylated derivatives of these hydrocarbons in jet fuels.
  • Recognize calibration and standardization requirements for ASTM D1840.
  • Recall steps for both Procedures A and B.
  • Recall steps for calculation of mass and volume percentages of naphthalenes in the sample.
