This document describes a high-temperature simulated distillation method for analyzing heavy crude oils and petroleum blends. The method uses a new metal column that has been deactivated by a proprietary process to provide excellent performance and exceptional durability at high temperatures.
This document describes the Agilent DB-HT Sim Dis column, a metal capillary column developed for high-temperature simulated distillation (HTSD) analysis. It is designed to operate up to 430 °C to analyze heavy crude oils and determine atmospheric equivalent boiling points (AEBP) up to 1382 °F (750 °C). The column features a proprietary deactivation process and polymer bonding to ensure low bleed and excellent durability under extreme conditions.
| Column Dimensions | 5m x 0.53 mm id x 0.15 um film |
