Designation:F333719Standard Guide forTaking Property and Behavior Measurements on WeatheredFractions of Oil1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F3337;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This guide summarizes methods to fractionate oil byevaporative weathering and then measure the properties andbehavior of the weathered oil.The results of this guide canprovide oil behavior data for input into oil spill models andresponse method selection.1.2 This guide covers general procedures for oil weatheringand behavior and does not cover all possible procedures whichmay be applicable to this topic.1.3 The results obtained using this guide are intended toprovide baseline data for the behavior of oil and petroleumproducts when spilled and input to oil spill models.1.4 The results obtained using this guide can be useddirectly to predict certain facets of oil spill behavior or as inputto oil spill models.1.5 The accuracy of the guide depends very much on therepresentative nature of the oil sample used.Certain oils canhave different properties depending on their chemical contentsat the moment a sample is taken1.6 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety,health,and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.8 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards,Guides and Recom-mendations issued by the World Trade Organization TechnicalBarriers to Trade(TBT)Committee.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2D93 Test Methods for Flash Point by Pensky-MartensClosed Cup TesterD97 Test Method for Pour Point of Petroleum ProductsD971 Test Method for Interfacial Tension of Oil AgainstWater by the Ring MethodD1310 Test Method for Flash Point and Fire Point of Liquidsby Tag Open-Cup ApparatusD1824 Test Method for Apparent Viscosity of Plastisols andOrganosols at Low Shear RatesD4294 Test Method for Sulfur in Petroleum and PetroleumProducts by Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spec-trometryD4377 Test Method for Water in Crude Oils by Potentiomet-ric Karl Fischer TitrationD5002 Test Method for Density,Relative Density,and APIGravity of Crude Oils by Digital Density AnalyzerD5853 Test Method for Pour Point of Crude OilsD5949 Test Method for Pour Point of Petroleum Products(Automatic Pressure Pulsing Method)D6352 Test Method for Boiling Range Distribution of Pe-troleum Distillates in Boiling Range from 174 C to700 C by Gas ChromatographyD6450 Test Method for Flash Point by Continuously ClosedCup(CCCFP)TesterD6560 Test Method for Determination of Asphaltenes(Hep-tane Insolubles)in Crude Petroleum and Petroleum Prod-uctsD7042 Test Method for Dynamic Viscosity and Density ofLiquids by Stabinger Viscometer(and the Calculation ofKinematic Viscosity)D7094 Test Method for Flash Point by Modified Continu-ously Closed Cup(MCCCFP)TesterD7169 Test Method for Boiling Point Distribution ofSamples with Residues Such as Crude Oils and Atmo-spheric and Vacuum Residues by High Temperature GasChromatography1This guide is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F20 on HazardousSubstances and Oil Spill Response and is the direct responsibility of SubcommitteeF20.16 on Surveillance and Tracking.Current edition approved March 1,2019.Published March 2019.DOI:10.1520/F333719.2For referenced ASTM standards,visit the ASTM website,www.astm.org,orcontact ASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.org.For Annual Book of ASTMStandards volume information,refer to the standards Document Summary page onthe ASTM website.Copyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United StatesThis international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards,Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade(TBT)Committee.1 F2059 Test Method for Laboratory Oil Spill DispersantEffectiveness Using the Swirling FlaskF3045 Test Method for Evaluation of the Type and Vis-coelastic Stability of Water-in-oil Mixtures Formed fromCrude Oil and Petroleum Products Mixed with WaterF3251 Test Method for Laboratory Oil Spill DispersantEffectiveness Using the Baffled Flask3.Terminology3.1 adhesionthe tendency of dissimilar parti
