BP Amoco developmentobjectives
• To understand how thermal degradation takes place,and how additives may interact in such processes
• To understand the function of dispersant and anti-foulant additives which show beneficial effects onthermal stability
• To identify and develop new, commercially viablethermal stability additives without compromisingother aspects of fuel quality
![Page 4: BP Amoco Thermal Stability Additive Development: An … Presentations/HiTTS Update A.pdf · BP Amoco development objectives • To understand how thermal degradation takes place,](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021521/5b84a3337f8b9ae5498cb757/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Fuel thermal degradation
• Depending on temperature, main factors are– fuel chemistry– oxygen– metals
• Factors combine to form deposit precursors
• Precursor reactions lead to– bulk deposits– surface deposition
⇒ Multifunctional additive with activity in several aspects
![Page 5: BP Amoco Thermal Stability Additive Development: An … Presentations/HiTTS Update A.pdf · BP Amoco development objectives • To understand how thermal degradation takes place,](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021521/5b84a3337f8b9ae5498cb757/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Approaches taken
• Identifying/developing performance test procedures– UK MoD, USAF, OEMs (Rolls-Royce)
• Identifying ‘active’ species– In-house (BP Chemicals’ proprietary) additives
• provided performance baseline– Small chemical species
• identification of specific molecular functionalities
• Building required functionality into ‘host’ molecules
• Developing scaled-up synthetic routes to patentedcommercial products

Single element tests
Carried out using API 1581 3rd Edition elements withmulti-additive fuel composition (FSII, SDA, CI/LI andPetronate L) and 90:10 Ultrafine:RIO
• Water coalescence only marginally affected by presenceof additive– slightly smaller droplets released– no sign of “graping”
• Good solids retention in presence and absence of water
• No excessive ∆P
