Selecting Lead Antiknock Agents for Obtaining Gasolines with a Road Octane Number Above 100,
Abstract
The report presents the results of comparative studies on the efficiency of lead antiknock agents: tetraethyl lead (TES), tetramethyl lead (TMS), a physical mixture of TES and TMS (F) and a chemical mixture of TES and TMS (Kh). The antiknock agents were added to three basic gasolines in different concentrations. The basic gasolines were formulated from components such that in a pure form they had octane numbers of about 97 according to the test method and represented promising high-quality types of atuomobile gasolines. Butane was also added to the basic gasolines in quantities which complied with the existing standards for Super-Premium motor gasolines in England. (Author)
