Abstract
The effect of TPA polymer (thermal polyaspartate anion) on the physical-chemical properties of diesel fuel –– density, kinematic viscosity at 40 °C, moisture content, total acid number, thermal combustion, 90 vol.% distill-off temperature, and cetane number –– is studied. It is shown that the moisture content and total acid number decrease considerably when TPA is introduced, while the heat of combustion and cetane number increase considerably, which improves fuel quality.
