FOREWORD 0.1 This Bangladesh Standard was adopted by the Bangladesh Standards and Testing Institution RR-dE-ZOLO - q on", afer the draft finalized by the Mineral, Fuels and Petroleum products Sectional Committee had been approved by the Chemical Divisional committee, 0.3 This standard was first published in 1963 arid subsequently revised in 1983, 1991 and 1999. In 1999 the sectional commitice revised the standard in the previous context of world trend of using unleaded motor gasoline. In this revision level of lead has been revised. This revision cancels and replaces BDS 346 :1999. 0.4 Research octane number (RON) is determined by the fuel in a test engine with a variable compression ratio under controlled conditions and comparing the results with those for mixtures of ISO- octane and n- heptane. Fuels with higher octane ratings are used in more powerful engines, since such fuels ignites less easily. This type of fuel can be run at a higher compression ratio without creating detonation. Engine power is a function of fuel , as well as engine design and is related to rating of the fuel. 0.5 Bangladesh imports automobiles from abroad which run with motor spirit of which should match those prescribed by the manufacturers. Car, taxi, motorcycle and even power generator manufactured today are designed to use motor spirit of RON 87 and above, Considering his trend of using higher grade motor spirit, the committee decided to change the octane rating from RON 80 to 87.This will come into force from January 2012. 0.6 In the preparation of the this standard, assistance has been derived from the following publications: BS 4040:2001 Specification for leaded petrol (gasoline) for motor vehicles. British Standards Institutions. Statistics on the research octane Number in the Asia paeific countries. ASTM D- 439: 1989 Standard specification for Automotive gasoline.

The material may contain antioxidants metal deaetivators, anti- knock agents and other additives (see 3.1.1.1 to 31.1.4) in appropriate concentration to improve the quality of gasoline. 3.1.1.1 Antioxidant- An approved antioxidants may be added in sufficient concentration to meet the requirements for oxidation stability as specified in Tablelfollowing are the antioxidants: a) N, N’-di- secondary-butyl-paraphenylene diamine; b) 2,4 di-methyl-6-tertiary butyl phenol; c) 4-methyl-2, 6-tertiary butyl phenol; 4) N,N’-di- isopropyl paraphenylene diamine; ¢) N-normal butyl-p-aminophenol; and {) Mixture of N, N’- di- secondary-butyl-paraphenylene diamine and disalicylidene-N- methyl dipropylene triamine. = 3.1.1.2 Metal deactivators-An approved metal deactivator shall be added in sufficient concentration of the material or any component thereof has been refined by eopper sweetening process. The following are the approved metal deactivators; ae a) N, N’- di- disalicylidene-propylene diamine; b)N, N’- di- disalicylidene-ethylene diamine; and ©) N, N’- disalicylidene-methylamine- dipropylene triamine. 3.1.1.3 Dyes-A suitable dye shall be added in such proportions as will satisfy the requirement for colour as specified in Table 1 : 3.1.1.4 Subject to agreement between the purchaser and the supplier suitable additives other those mentioned in 2.111 and 2.1.1.2 may be added in appropriate concentration to improve: quality of gasoline. 3.2. Other requirements- The material shall also comply with the requirements prescribed in Table 1 when tested according to the methods referred in col 4 of the table.
