Rationale

There is no ASTM standard equivalent for undenatured ethanol fit for fuel blending. There is also a technology using denatured fuel ethanol as a motor fuel. We are recommending they use D4806 to avoid taxation. Denaturant increases CI. Mindful of liquor taxation regulations that require a denaturant. (U.S.: $27/ gallon) To explore a standard specification for undenatured ethanol for fuel use. The term “denature” appears 192 times in D4806.
