Historical Standard: ASTM D3348-07 Standard Test Method for Rapid Field Test for Trace Lead in Unleaded Gasoline (Colorimetric Method)
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM D3348
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers and is intended for use in the field by nontechnical people for the quantitative measurement of lead in unleaded gasoline in the range from 0.01 to 0.10 g Pb/U.S. gal (2.64 to 26.4 mg Pb/L). This method applies to all commercial gasolines and responds to all types of lead alkyls as well as to other organic and inorganic forms of lead.
Note 1This test method is based on the use of the Mobil Lead Test Kit (Fig. 1).
Note 2This test method is a screening test and is not to be used as a replacement for withdrawn Test Method D 3116 , withdrawn Test Method D 3229 , or Test Method D 3237 .
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. For specific warning statements, see Section 7.
