An additive concentrate for use in fuels, especially in gasoline for internal combustion engines, comprising (a) 0.2 to 10 wt.% ashless friction modifier which is liquid at room temperature and pressure selected from (i) n-butylamine oleate or derivatives thereof, (ii) a substance comprising tall oil fatty acid or derivatives thereof, and (iii) mixtures of (i) and (ii); (b) 10 to 80 wt.% deposit inhibitor, and (iii) carrier fluid. The particular selection of friction modifier (a) enables a stable additive concentrate to be formulated without the need for additional solubilising agent for the friction modifier, whilst containing sufficient friction modifier to achieve a significant benefit in friction loss, when incorporated in gasoline used to fuel an internal combustion engine, and hence an improvement in fuel economy.
一种用于燃料,特别是用于内燃机汽油的浓缩添加剂,包括:(a) 0.2 至 10 wt.%的无灰摩擦改进剂,在室温和压力下为液态,选自 (i)
油酸正丁胺或其衍
生物,(ii) 包含妥尔油
脂肪酸或其衍
生物的物质,以及 (iii) (i) 和 (ii) 的混合物;(b) 10 至 80 wt.%的沉积物
抑制剂,以及 (iii) 载液。通过对摩擦改进剂(a)的特殊选择,可以配制出稳定的浓缩添加剂,而无需为摩擦改进剂添加额外的
增溶剂,同时又含有足够的摩擦改进剂,从而在加入用于内燃机燃料的汽油中时,显著降低摩擦损失,从而提高燃油经济性。
