Abstract

Refiners have used numerous gasoline additives since the 1920s to increase automotive performance and correct deficiencies. The history of organometallic additives, in particular lead-, manganese- and iron-containing compounds is discussed. Some of these additives can be helpful to environmental investigators for fingerprinting and age-dating leaded-gasoline releases. Knowing their history, investigators can decipher these releases more efficiently.
