1.1 ,This test method covers the determination of total sulfur in liquid hydrocarbon based fuel with a final boiling point of up to 450 ,°,C. It is applicable to analysis of natural, processed and final product materials containing sulfur in the range of 4.0 ,mg/kg to 830 ,mg/kg (see Note 1).
Note 1: ,For liquid hydrocarbons containing less than 4.0 ,mg/kg total sulfur or more than 830 ,mg/kg total sulfur, Test Method D5453 may be more appropriate.
