When winter temperatures drop sharply, large numbers of diesel vehicles fail to start because the fuel stops flowing, and transport is badly disrupted.
Why diesel waxes:
Below its cloud point, the high-melting-point paraffin waxes in diesel crystallise out as plates or needles. The crystals grow and interlock at their edges into a three-dimensional network that traps the lower-melting-point fuel, so it stops flowing. Once 0.5 to 2.0 per cent of the wax has separated, the fuel has set.
YN4483 Diesel Antigel
Diesel treated with YN4483 behaves differently. Near the cloud point the antigel separates out alongside the wax crystals and directs their growth, producing many smaller nuclei. The polar groups adsorbed on the crystal surfaces prevent the crystals from joining up, so the wax stays finely dispersed and the fuel keeps flowing.
Results: the pour point and cold filter plugging point are lowered substantially, filterability and pumpability improve, cold starting is reliable, and wear is reduced.
