Scope

This standard describes a procedure for extracting the soluble organic fraction from filters that have been used to collect the particulate emissions from diesel engine exhausts.

NOTE 1 The extract can be used to produce a solution of the soluble organic fraction for further analysis by gas chromatography for the fuel- and lubricating oil-derived hydrocarbons in diesel particulates as described in IP 442.

NOTE 2 A procedure for determining the SOF gravimetrically is described in annex A. The method is suitable for quantities in the sub-milligram to milligram range.
