95 (Table 2-2). Specific gravity is influenced by the chemical composition of petroleum, but quantitative correlation is difficult to establish. Nevertheless, it is generally recognized that increased amounts of aromatic compounds result in an increase Copyright 1999 by Marcel Dekker, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
