Alcance y aplicabilidad

This standard applies to ethanol gasoline for motor vehicles (E10) produced, sold, and used within the Chinese market. It specifically targets fuel blended from denatured fuel ethanol and gasoline blendstocks without oxygenates, categorized into four grades based on Research Octane Number: 89, 92, 95, and 98. This standard is mandatory for all fuel blenders and distributors involved in the E10 ethanol gasoline market in China.

Requisitos técnicos

GB 18351-2025 establishes the detailed technical specifications for ethanol gasoline for motor vehicles (E10), replacing the previous 2017 version. It introduces significant updates, including the removal of outdated Stage V and Stage VIA requirements, transitioning fully to the Stage VIB limits. The standard dictates critical parameters such as antiknock properties, distillation characteristics, and seasonal vapor pressure limits. It also enforces strict controls on harmful substances, setting rigid thresholds for sulfur content, benzene, aromatics, and olefins. Manufacturers must ensure no artificial addition of lead, iron, manganese, methylal, anilines, or compounds containing halogens, phosphorus, and silicon. A key update from the previous version is the introduction of new technical requirements for silicon content, chlorine content, and total aniline compounds. The standard also revises the testing and arbitration methods for sulfur, lead, iron, and manganese content, ensuring more robust quality control and dispute resolution.

Métodos de ensayo

The standard outlines a comprehensive suite of testing protocols, referencing numerous national (GB/T) and industry (SH/T, NB/SH/T) standards. Key evaluations include determining antiknock index via research and motor methods, measuring vapor pressure using the Reid method, and analyzing sulfur content through ultraviolet fluorescence. Specific arbitration methods are strictly designated in case of disputes, such as using GB/T 8020 for lead content and GB/T 34100 for sulfur content. Advanced analytical techniques like gas chromatography and X-ray fluorescence spectrometry are mandated for detecting trace metals and organic oxygenates.
