Abstract: The present invention relates to a stable blended diesel fuel comprising an olefinic diesel fuel blending stock. The olefinic diesel fuel blending stock of the invention comprises olefins in an amount of 2 to 80 weight percent, non-olefins in an amount of 20 to 98 weight percent wherein the non-olefins are substantially comprised of paraffins, oxygenates in an amount of at least 0.012 weight percent and sulfur in an amount of less than 1 ppm. To provide acceptable stability, the blended diesel fuel comprising the olefinic diesel fuel blending stock comprises a sulfur-free antioxidant. The blended diesel fuel comprising the olefinic diesel fuel blending stock and sulfur-free antioxidant added has a peroxide content of less than 5 ppm when stored at 60° C. for 4 weeks. The present invention also relates to processes for making the stable blended diesel fuel and olefinic diesel fuel blending stocks as defined above.

Abstract: A fuel additive package is disclosed that prevents degradation of hydrocarbon fuels upon storage and permits extended use of such motor fuels without intake-valve deposit formation in vehicle motors. The additive contains an antioxidant, metal deactivator, corrosion inhibitor, and detergent. The corrosion inhibitor, preferably a carboxylic acid containing a carbon number equal to or less than 18 and the detergent component, preferably a polyisobutylene diamine are selected to avoid antagonistic effects with the antioxidant and metal deactivator components while the antioxidant and metal deactivator components are used in markedly reduced amounts to avoid antagonistic effects resulting in increased intake-valve deposits.

Abstract: Gasoline and gasoline mixtures containing unsaturated hydrocarbons are stabilized by the addition thereto of an effective amount of (a) a primary antioxidant of a phenylenediamine, a hindered monophenol, or mixtures thereof, and (b) dimethyl sulfoxide.

Abstract: Petroleum fuels are tagged with markers having the formula: ##STR1## where R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are selected from H, methyl, ethyl, methoxy, halogen, cyano and nitro and R.sup.3 is selected from methyl, methoxy methoxyethoxy and morpholino.

Abstract: A method of stabilizing a diesel fuel formulation by substantially minimizing the oxidation thereof is disclosed. In particular, at least one amine containing copolymer is incorporated into the diesel fuel formulation in an amount sufficient to improve the storage stability and, also, substantially minimize the oxidation thereof. The method of this invention is particularly well suited for substantially minimizing the high temperature oxidation of diesel fuels.

Abstract: This invention relates to organic materials normally susceptible to gradual degradation in the presence of oxygen during use over an extended period of time and of the type in which it is customary to add an antioxidant thereto to prevent degradation. The improvement constituting the basis of this invention comprises including an alkenylated toluenediamine having one alkenyl group ortho to an amine group. More particularly, the alkenylated toluenediamines suited as antioxidants are represented by the formulas: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4 and R.sub.5 are hydrogen, C.sub.1 to C.sub.3 aliphatic, or R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 or R.sub.3 are bridged via an alkylene radical --(CH.sub.2).sub.y -- wherein y=2 to 5, and at least one of R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4 or R.sub.5 is C.sub.1 or greater.
