Middle distillate containing storage stability additive
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A middle distillate hydrocarbon composition characterized by its stability in the presence of air comprising a major portion of a middle distillate hydrocarbon oil and a minor effective stabilizing portion, as an additive, of the product prepared by reaction of(i) a hydrocarbyl-substituted mono- or bis-succinimide bearing polyamine ##STR36## wherein R is an alkenyl group containing about 8-400 carbon atoms;
- R" is a divalent hydrocarbon group selected from the group consisting of alkylene, alkarylene, aralkylene, cycloalkylene, arylene, alkenylene, and alkynlene;
R'"'"' is --NH2, --NHR'"'"'" or a hydrocarbyl-substituted succinimide group ##STR37## R'"'"'" is a hydrocarbon group selected from the group consisting of alkyl, alkaryl, aralkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, and aryl;
a is an integer 1-8 with(ii) an organic polycarboxylic acid R* (COOH)xwhereinx is an integer 3-6; and
R* is a hydrocarbon group derived by removing a-1 hydrogen atoms from an alkyl, alkaryl, aralkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, alkenyl, or alkynyl hydrocarbon groupthereby forming product; and
recovering said product.

Abstract
Additives formed by reaction of polyacids such as 1,3,6-hexane tricarboxylic acid and polyisobutenyl succinimide of a polyamine are effective in improving the storage stability of middle distillate fuels.
