Field Test Kit Developed for B100:
pHLip Test
Ø A Quick Check in the field for detecting traces of
catalyst, mono/di/triglycerides, soaps and acids
Ø 10 min test; Simply add B100 to test vial, mix by
‘flipping” & let the fuel float to create two phases
Ø Visual indication only, not quantitative
Ø Unrelated to ASTM yet surprisingly sensitive for
dissolved contaminants; Now a QC protocol test
Ø Intended to alert a consumer or operator as a
‘firewall’, then they can request a formal lab test
