DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to compositions synergistic combination of organic compounds, additive compositions to motor gasoline to improve their octane, detergent, antioxidant, anti-wear, anti-static and protective properties; thermal and fuel colloidal stability, and to fuel compositions containing this additive.

Antiknock additives are numerous organic compounds containing lead, iron, manganese, rare earth elements. These antidetonators form deposits in the engine corresponding metals and their oxides and increases engine wear.

As antiknock combustion regulators are known and benzene homologues C 7 -C 8 (toluene, xylene, ethylbenzene), and a low molecular weight aromatic amines (methylaniline, toluidine, xylidine, etc.).

Thus Ekstralin used additive containing aniline (6 wt.), Dimethylaniline (4.5 wt.), And the balance to 100% methylaniline 6.02.571-90 TU.

The disadvantages of such additives are Ekstralin ADA and their introducing into gasoline is not more than 1.3% 1 (then there is a strong abrupt increase in the engine carbonization) and the fact that these additives do not have a detergent, antioxidant, antiwear, anti-static, water retention and protective properties.

As the high-octane components of gasoline oxygenates are known: methyl or ethyl alcohol in a mixture with polyols; methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) and a mixture of 60% 80 40 MTBE 20% isobutyl alcohol feterol product.

Oxygenates disadvantages are:

  • necessary to add them to gasoline in large quantities: for raising the octane number (O.Ch.) 6 8 points 15-25 wt.
  • low hydrolytic stability and high moisture-absorbing ability to oxygenate, leading to severe electrochemical corrosion of container and the engine;
  • lower than that of gasoline, reduction of the calorific value and therefore the length on one filling path.

Synergistic compositions antiknock type aromatic amines, surfactants and other oxygenates; detergent, antioxidant, anti-wear and protective (corrosion inhibitors) are unknown additives.

The object of the invention is to increase the anti-knock properties (RON) of gasoline, increasing their detergent and protective properties, and improving their thermal oxidative, chemical and colloidal stability over a wide temperature range by creating a synergistic surfactant composition - multifunctional additives for gasoline Remoin-DB, DB and Remoin -Fet.

Science (theoretical) of the invention are the following phenomena.

1. Proposed additive compositions are not just a combination of surfactants, where each of them performs its functional role, and synergistic composition, a synergistic effect which is due to intermolecular interactions of surfactants in forming additive in gasoline with additives activated complexes oscillator with a resonant energy exchange through intermolecular centers interactions, n-complexes, H-complexes, complexes of long-lived stable free radicals (DAC) and secondary structures of colloidal complex structural units, micelles and mixed micelles (5,6).

2. It is found that by adding a less polar hydrocarbon medium (gasoline) of the more polar component (MTBE, other oxygenates and feterola) mixture of functional properties, in particular their octane evaporation, freezing point and others. Additivity does not obey the rules and tested through the extreme points with a certain gain (win) the functional properties of a certain amount (due to the formation of activated complexes oscillators).

When added to a mixture of additives, chemical polarizers extreme points are shifted towards less polar component content (oxygenates) and upwards in the direction of a significant increase in growth of functional properties.

3. Thus, the following are installed synergies in the proposed compositions of the present invention: shielded phenols or bisphenols and aminophenols synergistic thermally stabilizing additives (shielded phenols are effective up to 120-140 o C, aminophenols to 200 o C, the mixture in the temperature range 120-230 o C); a mixture of phenols and aminophenols chemical polarizers (see. p. 1 and 2).
