ASTM D86

Determine the boiling range of a petroleum product by performing a simple batch distillation following the ASTM D86 method. ASTM D86 is one of the oldest test methods under ASTM, and it’s occasionally still referred to as the Engler distillation.

Labs often manage several distributor relationships to make sure their technicians are equipped with the right instruments and supplies to keep these tests running as needed. Most of the supplies your lab needs for ASTM D86 are curated here for easy ordering.

Petrochemical contracts usually include specifications that require proof via test methods like ASTM D86.

Distillation characteristics of hydrocarbons have an important effect on their safety and performance, especially in the case of fuels and solvents. The boiling range gives information on the composition, the properties, and the behavior of the fuel during storage and use.

The distillation characteristics are critically important for both automotive and aviation gasolines, affecting starting, warm-up, and tendency to vapor lock at high operating temperature or at high altitude, or both.

Distillation affects the rate of evaporation, so it’s important in many solvents, particularly those used in paints.
