TEST METHOD FOR SULFUR IN PETROLEUM AND PETROLEUM PRODUCTS BY ENERGY DISPERSIVE X-RAY FLOURESCENCE SPECTROMETRY
This Malaysian Standard covers the determination of total sulfur in petroleum and petroleum products that are single-phase and either liquid at ambient conditions, liquefiable with moderate heat, or soluble in hydrocarbon solvents. These materials can include diesel fuel, jet fuel, kerosene, other distillate oil,naphtha, residual oil, lubricating base oil, hydraulic oil, crude oil, unleaded gasoline, gasohol, biodiesel (see Note 2), and similar petroleum products.

NOTE 2-For samples with high oxygen contents (>3 'vi lee) sample dilution as described in 1.3 or matrix matching must he performed in assure accurate results.
