IV shows the results obtained with two synthetic samples blended from Phillips Petroleum Co. Research Grade hydrocarbons. The accuracy of the analysis is about iO.5%. Several plant samples were analyzed for either n-paraffins or the sum of

n-paraffins and n-olefins. The analytical results for some of these samples, given in Table V, again show a precision of about *0.5~o. The n-paraffin plus n-olefin results for the platformate fraction and the n-decane concentrate could be considered approximate n~~
