HYDROCARBON DISTRIBUTION REPORT
RIGHT SOLUTIONS | RIGHT PARTNER
Hydrocarbon Distribution Reports (HDRs) are chromatograms produced during the hydrocarbon analysis process, which are superimposed with additional information to assist with the characterization of hydrocarbon products that may be present in unknown samples.
Comparing the HDRs for unknown samples to those of reference products found in this library can provide qualitative evidence about the types of contaminants which may or may not be present. Chromatograms may differ slightly among similar products from different sources, particularly after alteration through weathering.
The horizontal scale at the bottom of the chromatogram indicates approximate retention times (in minutes), and the typical ranges of some common petroleum products (gasolines, diesels, fuel oils, and lubricating oils). Retention times of the n-alkane hydrocarbon marker compounds nC10, nC19, and nC32 are also indicated. Minor variations in retention times (e.g. +/- 0.5 minutes) should be expected due to day to day changes in instrument conditions.
The vertical scale on the left of the chromatogram indicates detector response in millivolts. This scale varies with sample concentration and with sample processing factors (sample weights, volumes, dilutions, etc). Quantitative comparisons can therefore not be made between Hydrocarbon Distribution Reports.
ALS strives to continually improve our analytical methods. Changes are made periodically that can alter the appearance of HDRs. Such changes may affect retention times, but they generally do not affect overall chromatographic patterns. This version of the library applies directly to HDRs produced after July 15th, 2006. Your account manager can advise you whether significant changes have been made since this library was produced.
Please contact your account manager at 604 253 4188 if you have any questions.
