Summary
-
1.
Under the conditions adopted, the thermal-oxidative treatment of alkanes or cyclanes does not form any sediment; the oxidation products remain dissolved in the fuel.
-
2.
Differences in chemical structure among paraffinic-naphthenic fractions of various fuels contribute to a differing degree of coagulation of the oxidation products that have formed, which in turn has an effect on the precipitation of sediment from the fuel.
-
3.
Blends of aromatic hydrocarbons with naphthenes form considerably less sediment upon oxidation than do analogous blends of aromatics with isoparaffins.
