New Specification for NON-PETROLEUM SYNTHESIZED ISO-PARAFFINIC BLEND COMPONENTS FOR USE IN AVIATION SPARK-IGNITION ENGINE
1. Scope
1.1 This specification covers requirements for fuel grade synthesized iso-paraffinic blend components that may be used to manufacture fuels for aviation spark-ignition engines where permissible. 1.2 While synthesized isoparaffinic blend components defined by Table 1 of this specification can be used in fuels other than aviation spark-ignition fuels, requirements for such other fuels have not been considered in the development of this specification 1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard. 1.4 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. 1.5 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.Keywords
