主 题:gasoline oxygenates distillation curve reid vapor pressure octane number
摘 要:The purpose of this paper is to study the effect of oxygenate additives into gasoline for the improvement of physicochemical properties of *** Tertiary Butyl Ether(MTBE),Methanol,Tertiary butyl alcohol(TBA),and Tertiary amyl alcohol(TAA) blend into unleaded gasoline with various blended rates of 2.5%,5%,7.5%,10%,15%,and 20%.Physicochemical properties of blends are analyzed by the standard American Society of Testing and Materials(ASTM) ***,TBA,and TAA increase density of the mixtures,but MTBE decreases *** addition of oxygenates lead to a distortion of the base gasoline's distillation *** Reid vapor pressure(RVP) of gasoline is found to increase with the addition of the oxygenated *** oxygenates improve both motor and research octane *** these four additives,TBA shows the best fuel properties.
