Fuel oil standards
Thread Content
Does anyone know the standards for fuel oil? Especially regarding the quality standards for finished diesel at present, if anyone could send me a copy, I would be extremely grateful
At present, there are no mandatory **quality standards for fuel oil in our country. In order to keep up with international standards, China’s industry standard SH/T 0356-1996 was formulated with reference to the ASTM D396-92 standard for fuel oils set by the American Society for Testing and Materials
Please ask the moderator to send me the DB11/239-2007 standard for diesel fuel used in vehicles in Beijing. Thank you, moderator; my email address is feitianzhuzhang@126.com
Who has the international standard? Send it please
In order to align with international standards, China National Petroleum Corporation formulated China’s industry standard SH/T 0356-1996 in 1996, by referring to the most widely used international fuel oil standard: the ASTM D396-92 standard issued by the American Society for Testing and Materials. SH/T0356-1996 – Main technical requirements for fuel oils: Quality specifications

Nos. 1 and 2 are distillate fuels suitable for use in household or industrial small burners. No. 4 Light and No. 4 fuel oil are heavy distillate fuel oils, or fuel oils formed by mixing distillate fuel oils with residue fuel oils. Grade 5 Light, Grade 5 Heavy, Grades 6 and 7 are residual fuel oils with increasing viscosity and boiling range; to facilitate loading/unloading and proper atomization, they generally require preheating at low temperatures. The most commonly used fuel oils in our country are No. 5 light, No. 5 heavy, No. 6, and No. 7 fuel oil. In the new standards, the viscosity control and grade classification for fuel oils No. 5 to No. 7 are based on the dynamic viscosity at 100°C. Fuel oils imported from abroad are generally classified according to their dynamic viscosity at 50°C, and they fall into two categories: those with a dynamic viscosity at 50°C of ≥180 mm2/s and those with a dynamic viscosity at 50°C also of ≥180 mm2/s.
