Standard Test Method for Sulfur in Petroleum Products by High Temperature Combustion and IR Detection
 N D1552

Annotation

This test method covers a procedure for the determination of total sulfur in petroleum products including lubricating oils containing additives, and in additive concentrates. This test method is applicable to samples boiling above 177 °C (350 °F) and containing a mass fraction of sulfur not less than 0.06 %. This procedure uses IR detection following pyrolysis in a resistance furnace.

Petroleum coke containing up to 8 mass % sulfur can be analyzed.

NOTE 1—The D1552–08 (2014) version of this standard contained two other procedures using iodate titrations. Since these procedures are no longer being used in the industry laboratories based on a survey of D02.SC 3 laboratories conducted in September 2014, they are being deleted. For earlier information on the deleted procedures, D1552–08 (2014) may be perused.

The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.

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.
