BS PD ISO/TS 17306:2016

BS PD ISO/TS 17306:2016 establishes a methodology for quantitative determination of free glycerol,mono-, di-, triacylglycerols and total glycerol by gas chromatography in biodiesel produced from any rawmaterial including coconut or palm oil and animal fat. It is not applicable for biodiesel from castor oil.In most actual cases, biodiesel is based on fatty acid methyl esters (FAME). These have also been usedduring the precision study for this test method. There is no indication that the methodology does notapply to other ester types, but the precision has not been determined nor compared.NOTE For the purposes of this Technical Specification, the term “% (m/m)” is used to represent the massfraction, µ.Cross References:ISO 3170ISO 3171ISO 4259:2006ASTM D6584EN 14105
