ASTM D976-21e1<\/h3>\n

Active Standard: Standard Test Method for Calculated Cetane Index of Distillate Fuels<\/h4>\n
\n

ASTM D976<\/h4>\n

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

\n

1.1<\/span> This test method covers the Calculated Cetane Index formula, which represents a means for directly estimating<\/span> the ASTM cetane number of distillate fuels from API gravity and mid-boiling point. The index value, as computed from the formula, is termed the Calculated Cetane Index.2<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.2<\/span> The Calculated Cetane Index is not an optional method for expressing ASTM cetane number. It is a supplementary tool to estimate cetane number when used with due regard for its limitations.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.3<\/span> The Calculated Cetane Index formula is particularly applicable to straight-run fuels, catalytically cracked stocks, and blends of the two.<\/p>\n

\n

Note 1:<\/span> This test method is temporarily retained because the proposal to the U.S. EPA to control diesel fuel aromatics concentrations via a 40 Calculated Cetane Index minimum is based on the correlation between Test Method D976<\/span> and aromatics concentration. Test Method D4737<\/span> is the preferred method as estimator of cetane number.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.4<\/span> 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

1.5<\/span> This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
