ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE METHOD FOR THE DIRECT DETERMINATION OF PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF HYDROCARBON PRODUCTS The properties of a liquid hydrocarbon blend are determined from the NIR (Near Infra Red) spectrum of the components of the blend by a method which comprises the following steps: (a) determining with an IR spectrometer, the absorbance at a certain number of frequencies in the spectral range 16667 to 3840 cm-1, preferably 12500 to 3840 cm-1 most preferably 4760 to 4000 cm-1 for the components or arbitrary mixtures, starting from a defined base line, preferably corresponding to zero absorbance, (b) determining for each component I and each property J, a spectral mixture index SMIJI by applying a correlation with the measured absorbance values, this correlation with the measured absorbance values, this correlation being determined experimentally by multivariate regression, depending on the type of spectrometer used, the property desired, and the frequencies used. (c) calculating the desired property sought, by applying a linear expression, J = faSm IJa + fb SMIJC ... + fo SMIJo each term of which is the product of the spectral mixture index of a component of the desired property and the fraction by volume of the component in the final blend.
