A listing of typical specification properties for aviation gasoline is provided in TABLE 3-9. [Pg.50]

Corrosion Inhibitor - helps prevent rusting of metal engine components. Also, corrosion inhibitors provide a protective film on metal surfaces to aid in improving the lubricating properties of jet fuel. Use is not permitted in aviation gasoline and civil jet fuels, but is mandatory in military jet fuel grades. [Pg.53]

Tetraethyl Lead - used to improve the octane number (antiknock) properties of gasoline. Use is mandatory in aviation gasoline. Tetraethyl lead is not permitted in civil and military jet fuel. [Pg.53]

Tetraethyl Lead (TEL)—A volatile lead compound which is added to motor and aviation gasoline to increase the antiknock properties of the fuel. Pb(C2H5)4. The use of this compound has diminished in recent years because of pollution regulations. [Pg.1259]

On the shelves of drugstores you can find bottles of ethanol labeled denatured alcohol. Denatured alcohol is ethanol to which small amounts of noxious materials such as aviation gasoline or other organic solvents have been added. Ethanol is denatured in order to make it unfit to drink. Because of their polar hydroxyl groups, alcohols make good solvents for other polar organic substances. For example, methanol, the smallest alcohol, is a common industrial solvent found in some paint strippers, and 2-butanol is found in some stains and varnishes, as shown in Figure 23-5. Perform the CHEMLAB at the end of this chapter to learn about some other properties of small-chain alcohols. [Pg.744]

The requirements for jet fuels stress a different combination of properties and tests than those required for aviation gasoline (ASTM D-1655). The same basic controls are needed for such properties as storage stability and corrosivity, but the gasoline antiknock tests are replaced by tests directly and indirectly controlling energy content and combustion characteristics. However, as with other petroleum products, application of sampling protocols (ASTM D-3700, ASTM D-4057, ASTM D-4177, ASTM D-4306, ASTM D-5842) is of prime importance. [Pg.139]

Ethylbenzene has been added to motor and aviation fuels because of its anti-knock properties. Estimates of ethylbenzene in gasoline have ranged from < 1-2.7% (Fishbein, 1985 lARC, 1989 Backer eta/., 1997). [Pg.231]

Uses Antioxidant, heat stabilizer for syn. rug-backing, latex paints, rosin, ester gums, in gasoline and aviation fuels, insulating oils, paraffin wax Features Primary antioxidant provides better thermal stabilization of polyolefins and lower vapor pressure than common antioxidants Properties Gardner 12 clear liq. sol. in abs. ethanol, benzene, MEK,... [Pg.897]
