More about the book
Focusing on the synthesis of dual functional diesel fuel additives, this book explores the use of vegetable oils and animal fats, employing prepared heterogeneous catalysts. It highlights the importance of diesel fuel additives in enhancing fuel quality and engine performance, specifically discussing cetane number improvers like 2-ethylhexylnitrate and di-tert-butylperoxide, along with lubricity enhancers derived from long chain hydrocarbons and fatty acid esters. The effectiveness of these additives is evaluated through testing their cetane number and lubricity properties.
