PART A INDIVIDUAL CHROMATOGRAMS
This section contains representative Gas Chromatograph Flame Ionization Detection (GC/FID) chromatograms of a wide range of petroleum hydrocarbon products plus some naturally occurring organics. These chromatograms were generated in Bureau Veritas Laboratories by dilution of pure product and injection into the GC/FID. For products that contain a significant portion of volatile organic compounds, a chromatogram of a volatile scan (Headspace GC/FID) is included. (These are labelled ”F1 Chromatogram”).
There are usually two chromatograms for each product. In some cases, the first has an extended run time (labelled “Enhanced”) to provide enhanced peak resolution. In others, the first is the Headspace GC/FID scan. The second is always the routine extractable hydrocarbon scan with overlain hydrocarbon markers at C10 C16 C34 and C50. Most of the product descriptions are self-explanatory, however a few less common ones are defined below.
Stoddard Solvent: A petroleum distillate mixture of C7 – C12 hydrocarbons with a boiling range of 150 – 200°C. It is used to thin paints, in coatings, waxes, inks, for dry cleaning, degreasing, industrial cleaning and in herbicides. Stoddard solvent is a type of mineral spirits.
Condensate: In general, gas condensate has a specific gravity ranging from 0.5 – 0.8, and is composed of hydrocarbons such as propane, butane, pentane, hexane, etc. These are separated (condensed) from raw natural gas which is 80% – 90% methane and ethane. A major use of condensate is as a diluent for bitumen to produce diluted bitumen (dilbit) which has a low enough viscosity to be transported through pipelines.
Turpentine: A fluid obtained by the distillation of resin from live trees, mainly pines. It is mainly used as a solvent and as a source of materials for organic synthesis. Turpentine is composed of terpenes, mainly the monoterpenes alpha-pinene and beta-pinene with lesser amounts of carene, camphene, dipentene, and terpinolene.
Varsol: A petroleum-derived clear liquid used as a common organic solvent in painting. A mixture of aliphatic, open-chain or alicyclic C7 – C12 hydrocarbons, Varsol is insoluble in water and is used as an extraction solvent, as a cleaning solvent, as a degreasing solvent and as a solvent in aerosols, paints, wood preservatives, lacquers, varnishes, and asphalt products.
