    SPECIFICATION FOR
    BIODIESEL (B100) – ASTM D6751-07b
    # A considerable amount of experience exists in the US with a 20% blend of biodiesel with 80% diesel fuel (B20).
    Although biodiesel (B100) can be used, blends of over 20% biodiesel with diesel fuel should be evaluated on a
    case-by-case basis until further experience is available.
