Scope

The purpose of this document is to describe a procedure for the determination of the ester content in fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) intended for incorporation into diesel oil. It also allows determining the linolenic acid methyl ester content. It allows verifying that the ester content of FAME is greater than 90 % (m/m) and that the linolenic acid content is between 1 % (m/m) and 15 % (m/m).This method is suitable for FAME which contains methyl esters between C6 and C24.NOTE For the purposes of this European Standard, the terms """"% (m/m) and %(v/v)"""" are used to represent respectively the mass and volume fractions.WARNING - The use of this method may
