Abstract: The invention relates to a block copolymer and the use thereof as a cold resistance additive of a fuel or combustible. The block copolymer comprises: (i) a block A consisting of a chain of structural motifs derived from at least one ?,?-unsaturated alkyl methacrylate or acrylate monomer; and (ii) a block B consisting of a chain of structural motifs derived from at least one ?,?-unsaturated monomer selected from styrene derivatives, the aromatic ring of which is substituted by at least one group R selected from the groups: C1 to C24 alkyl esters, and preferably acyclic linear or branched C1 to C12 hydrocarbonated chains, said chain being substituted by at least one group containing a quaternary ammonium salt. The invention also relates to an additive concentrate containing such a copolymer and to the use thereof as an anti-sedimentation additive, and advantageously, as a TLF booster additive.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to the synthesis and the use of copolymers based on ethylene and/or of propylene and of vinyl ester(s) modified by grafting, effective for improving both the resistance to cold and the lubricity of liquid hydrocarbons in particular the middle distillates originating from the distillation of petroleum and crude oils, in particular those with a low sulphur content and relates to a copolymer including: a) units derived from ethylene of formula A —(CH2—CH2)n1— and/or propylene of formula A? —((CH3)CH2—CH2)n2 with n1+n2=n ranging from 98 to 643, preferably ranging from 124 to 515; n1 being advantageously equal to n; b) units of formula B: —(CH2—CHOOCR1)m-x— in which R1 represents a C1-C15 linear or branched alkyl group preferably methyl, propyl, and/or a C5 to C15 branched alkyl group, in which the branching is situated at any point of the alkyl radical, preferably in position 2 or 3 of the alkyl chain; preferably chosen from the preferred C5-C15 vinyl comonomers, preferably chosen from t

Abstract: This disclosure concerns the synthesis and use of novel polymers based on ethylene and vinyl esters, modified by conjugation to improve their solubility in liquid hydrocarbons, as double-purpose additives to improve the filterability and flow of liquid hydrocarbons at low temperatures, in particular for middle distillates derived from the distillation of petroleum and crude oil.
