Scope

1   Scope This document specifies requirements and test methods for marketed and delivered automotive B10 diesel fuel, i.e. diesel fuel containing up to 10,0 %( V/V ) Fatty Acid Methyl Ester. It is applicable to fuel for use in diesel engine vehicles compatible with automotive B10 diesel fuel. NOTE 1 This product is allowed in Europe [4], but national legislation can set additional requirements or rules concerning, or even prohibiting, marketing or delivering of the product. NOTE 2 In this document, A-deviations apply (see Annex A). NOTE 3 For the purposes of this document, the terms “% ( m/m )” and “% ( V/V )” are used to represent respectively the mass fraction and the volume fraction.
