IS0 8973:1997(E)
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of
preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which
a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented
on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-
governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. IS0
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard IS0 8973 was prepared by Technical Committee
ISORC 28, Petroleum products and lubricants.
Annex A forms an integral part of this International Standard. Annex B is for
information only.

Calculation method for density and
Liquefied petroleum gases -
vapour pressure
1 Scope
This International Standard describes a simplified method for the calculation of density and vapour pressure of
liquefied petroleum gases (LPG) based on compositional data and density and vapour pressure factors for
individual LPG components. A list of factors is provided in this International Standard. This method is intended for
application in specifications of product quality and is not intended for application to quantity measurement in custody
transfer (see IS0 6578).
2 Normative references
The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this
International Standard. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All standards are subject to
revision, and parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the
possibility of applying the most recent editions of the standards indicated below. Members of IEC and IS0 maintain
registers of currently valid International Standards.

3 Definitions
For the purpose of this International Standard the following definitions apply.
3.1 liquefied petroleum gas (LPG): Hydrocarbon gas that can be stored and/or handled in the liquid phase under
moderate conditions of pressure and at ambient temperature. lt consists essentially of C3 and C4 alkanes or
alkenes, or a mixture of these, contains generally less than 5 % by liquid volume of material of higher carbon
number, and has a gauge vapour pressure not exceeding approximately 1 600 kPa at 40 OC.
3.2 density factor: Density, expressed in kilograms per cubic metre, of a component in the liquid phase under its
own vapour pressure at a temperature of 15 OC.
3.3 vapour pressure: Vapour pressure, expressed in kilopascals on an absolute basi
