Determination of the adulteration of petrol with kerosine using a rapid phase-titration procedure

Abstract

An improved system for the phase-titration determination of kerosine adulteration in petrol has been developed. Calibration graphs are linear and are therefore especially efficacious for field applications. The range of kerosine adulteration covered (0–20% v/v) represents the extremes of adulteration found in the field. The method shows no significant dependence on temperature.
