Analytical Techniques for Aromatic Components in Aircraft Fuels.
Abstract
An ultraviolet detector was shown to be highly satisfactory for the selective determination of aromatic components in jet fuels. The detector was operated at 208 nm and used with a glass capillary column gas chromatographic system. The detector gave a linear response in the range of interest and could detect individual benzenes and naphthalenes in jet fuels at levels down to 0.1% and 0.02% respectively. a photoionization detector having a 9.5 ev source was found to be not sufficiently selective for aromatic hydrocarbons to be of value for fuel characterization.
