Evaluation of Polyisobutylene (PIB) Formulations in JP-5 Jet Fuel: The Effect of PIB Concentration on Fuel Mist Flammability.

Abstract

The antimisting fire suppressive effect of a high molecular weight polyisobutylene (6.3 million daltons), JP-5, an aviation jet fuel, was investigated as a function of concentration. At the concentration level of 1000 ppm, polyisobutylene of this molecular weight is an effective antimisting agent.
