Vapor Pressure-Reid (RVP)

Measure of the pressure of vapor condensed above a sample of gasoline or other volatile fuel in a standard bomb at 100 °F (37.8 °C). Utilized to predict the vapor locking properties of the fuel in a vehicle's fuel system. Controlled by law in some areas to help prevent air pollution caused by hydrocarbon evaporation.
