Abstract: Described herein are associative polymers capable of controlling one or more physical and/or chemical properties of non-polar compositions and related compositions, methods and systems.

Abstract: Quaternized terpolymer formed from (A) ethylene, (B) C2-C14-alkenyl esters of one or more aliphatic C1-C20-monocarboxylic acids or C1-C24-alkyl esters of acrylic acid or of methacrylic acid and (Cq) ethylenically unsaturated monomers which comprise at least one tertiary nitrogen atom which is partly or fully in quaternized form. The quaternized terpolymer is suitable as a fuel additive for reducing or preventing deposits, for reducing fuel consumption and for minimizing power loss in direct-injection diesel engines, especially in diesel engines with common-rail injection systems.

Abstract: Additives for distillate fuel are a copolymer of (1) an alpha olefin having two to seventeen carbon atoms per molecule or an aromatic substituted olefin having eight to forty carbon atoms per molecule and (2) a mono- or di-alkyl fumarate, itaconate, citraconate, mesaconate, trans- or cis-glutaconate, in which the alkyl group has 8 to 23 carbon atoms.

Abstract: A method for reducing friction loss in flowing hydrocarbon fluids is disclosed. The method comprises adding to the fluid an effective amount of an oil-soluble polyamine and a terpolymer of styrene, alkyl acrylate and a carboxylic acid selected from the group consisting of acrylic acid and methacrylic acid. Related compositions are also disclosed.
