Abstract: A reforming catalyst comprising minor amounts of platinum and cadmium and chloride on an alumina support. Preferably the cadmium is in the amount of about 0.2% wt. and the platinum is in the amount of about 0.4% wt. and the chloride is in the amount of about 0.1% wt. to 2.0% wt. of the catalyst.

Abstract: Hydrocarbyl acid phosphate salts of polyamides having at least one amino group and hydrocarbon fuel compositions containing same. The salts are formed by neutralizing with a hydrocarbyl acid phosphate at least 10% of the amino groups of a polyamide containing from about 2 to about 6 amide groups and at least one amino group. Hydrocarbon fuel compositions containing these salts exhibit desirable properties such as enhanced carburetor detergency and carburetor anti-icing characteristics, improved water tolerance, excellent rust inhibition, and cleaner engine operation while engines operated thereon exhibit reduced hydrocarbon content in the exhaust.
