This paper was provoked by recent interest in using Raman and other spectroscopic methods for certifying In-Line blends, particularly after ASTM sponsored a working group in D02 [1] to work on practices ( using generalized calibrations for direct match technique) that would be acceptable to FTC (for certifying octanes) and other US government agencies. Bottom line : spectroscopic methods work, but they are highly dependent on the quality of modeling and design of spectrometers.
