  • Marker compositions with nitrogen compounds, and methods for making and using same
    Patent number: 11542449
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions, methods, and systems for identifying marked hydrocarbon fluids. These compositions, methods, and systems utilize a gas chromatography marker including a non-pyrrolidinone nitrogen-containing compound. The methods and systems can identify the presence or absence of the gas chromatography marker and/or the non-pyrrolidinone nitrogen-containing compound. The compositions, methods, and systems can optionally utilize a spectroscopic marker.
    Type: Grant

  • Mixtures of aromatic esters for marking or tagging organic products, marker compositions comprising the same and manufacturing methods thereof
    Patent number: 7825159
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a mixture of at least two different alkylated phenolphthalein ester compounds. Specifically, the present invention is directed to a mixture of at least two different compounds of formula I: wherein R1 represents a straight chain alkyl group having 1 to 11 carbon atoms; R2 represents a hydrogen atom or a group of the formula C(O)R4 where R4 is a hydrogen atom or a straight chain alkyl group having 1 to 11 carbon atoms; X2-X5 independently represent hydrogen; X6-X13 is same or different, and represents hydrogen or a straight or branched chain alkyl group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms. It further relates to a marker composition containing said mixtures dissolved in a solvent.

  • Method for detecting acid- and base-extractable markers
    Patent number: 5962330
    Abstract: Markers which are soluble in petroleum fuel and are extractable from petroleum fuel by either acidic aqueous solutions or basic solutions and develop a color in the presence of the extracting acidic or basic aqueous solution, are identified by passing a specimen putatively containing the marker through an acidic resin column or a basic resin column, as the case may be.
