Abstract: Aviation fuel, such as jet fuel, blends and methods for improving cold flow properties of such fuels at extremely low temperatures are disclosed. Cold flow properties of, for example, JP-8 jet fuel are improved by addition to the fuel of an oil-soluble, polar nitrogen-containing compound. Demonstratable cold flow improvement of such fuels at temperatures of about −53° C. and lower is shown.

Abstract: The corrosion of metals in contact with aqueous alkanolamine solutions in acid gas removal units is inhibited by adding to the alkanolamine solution a corrosion inhibiting amount of a polythiaether compound.

Abstract: The present invention relates to additives for enhancing the lubricity of hydrocarbon fuel oils, the inventive additive composition including one or more of the reaction products of (i) an alkylated polyamine and (ii) urea or isocyanate, or the salt adducts of these reaction products. More particularly, the present invention provides for a process for improving the lubricity of hydrocarbon fuel oils, which are low in inherent lubricity due to treatment to reduce sulfur and aromatic components for improved emissions.

Abstract: A method for controlling wheat powdery mildew is provided which encompasses applying to the plant, seed, seedling or portion of the plant to be protected, or, to its growing media, an effective amount of a compound of Formula II where Q is O, n is 0, R3 is halogen, R4 is halogen or hydrogen, R5 is an alkyl group having from three to five carbon atoms and R6 is an alkyl group having from three to eight carbon atoms. Also provided are certain compositions for controlling wheat powdery mildew which contain a compound of Formula II together with a surfactant, an organic solvent and/or a solid or liquid diluent. Also provided are certain fungicidal compounds within Formula II for controlling wheat powdery mildew.

Abstract: Compounds of Formula I, and their N-oxides and agriculturally suitable salts, are disclosed which are useful as fungicides wherein W is O, S(O)n or NR5; n is 0, 1 or 2; Q is O or S; G is a fused phenyl, naphthalene, thiophene, furan, pyrrole, pyridine, thiazole, oxazole, imidazole, pyrazine, pyridazine or pyrimidine ring; and R1-R5 are as defined in the disclosure. Also disclosed are compositions containing the compounds of Formula I and a method for controlling plant diseases caused by fungal plant pathogens which involves applying an effective amount of a compound of Formula I.
