  • Exo-tetrahydrotricyclopentadiene, a high density liquid fuel
    Patent number: 4401837
    Abstract: A high density fuel for airbreathing or bi-propellant engines consisting of xo-tetrahydrotricyclopentadiene (EXO-THTC) alone and in mixtures with other high density fuels. Processes for their preparation are also disclosed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 2, 1980
    Date of Patent: August 30, 1983
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy
    Inventors: George W. Burdette, Abraham I. Schneider
  • High density, low viscosity airbreather fuel (RJ-4-I)
    Patent number: 4398978
    Abstract: A method for preparation of high density, high energy, low viscosity liquid ydrocarbon fuel by catalytic treatment of tetrahydrodimethyldicyclopentadiene (RJ-4) synthetic fuel. Endo-isomers within the fuel stock are isomerized to exo-isomers by treatment of the fuel stock with catalysts such as aluminum chloride, nickel, or pulverized, acid treated firebrick resulting in a fuel having a lower viscosity than the original RJ-4.
