Summary

This document specifies requirements and test methods for marketed and delivered unleaded petrol. It is applicable to unleaded petrol for use in petrol engine vehicles designed to run on unleaded petrol.
This document specifies two types of unleaded petrol:
- one type with a maximum oxygen content of 3,7 % (m/ m) and a maximum ethanol content of 10,0 % (V/ V) in Table 1
- one type in Table 2 with a maximum oxygen content of 2,7 % (m/ m) and a maximum ethanol content of 5,0 % (V/ V) intended for older vehicles that are not warranted to use unleaded petrol defined in Table 1.
NOTE 1 The two types are based on European Directive requirements [3], [4] and [13].
NOTE 2 For the purposes of this document, the terms “% (m/ m)” and “% (V/ V)” are used to represent respectively the mass fraction, µ, and the volume fraction, φ.
