A Calculation that requires Density (D 4052) and Distillation (D 86)
B Calculation that requires Distillation (D 86) and Vapor Pressure (D 5191)
C Calculation that requires Distillation (D 86) and Ethanol Content (D 4815)
D Calculation that requires Density (D 4052), Ash (D 482), Sulfur (D 5453) & KF Moisture (D 6304)
E At least 30 mL of sample required with between 20% and 30% headspace
F If Flash Point (D 93) is above 93°C but below 130°C, Methanol (EN 14110) will be required for an additional $45
