Scope

1.1 This provisional specification covers low sulfur biodiesel (B100) for use as a blend component with diesel fuel oils defined by Specification D975 Grades 1-D, 2-D, and low sulfur 1-D and 2-D. 1.2 This specification, unless otherwise provided by agreement between the purchaser and the supplier, prescribes the required properties of biodiesel fuel at the time and place of delivery. 1.3 Nothing in this specification shall preclude observance of federal, state, or local regulations which may be more restrictive. Note 1-the generation and dissipation of static electricity can create problems in the handling of distillate fuel oils with which biodiesel may be blended. For more information on the subject, see Guide D4865.
