Abstract:
A fuel composition for internal combustion engines, and more particularly, a fuel composition for internal combustion engines containing less than about 0.5 gram of lead per gallon of fuel is described. The fuel provides acceptable valve seat protection in engines designed to operate on leaded fuels. A further aspect of the invention is to reduce deposit formation within the cylinders.

Abstract:
Smoke and ash deposit formation in commercial and military jet engines and power plants is minimized by inclusion in the fuel of an additive comprising oil-soluble salts of a transition metal, such as manganese or iron, and an alkaline earth metal together with an oil-soluble ammonium salt. A preferred additive comprises methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl and calcium alkylphenol sulfide in amounts to provide a manganese/calcium weight ratio about 5/1. Dosage of the mixed metals is preferably within the range from 200 to 600 ppm. with dosage of ammonium ion within the range from 10 to 100 ppm.
Abstract:
A process for stabilizing solutions of metal carbonyls in organic solvents, preferably in hydrocarbons, in which one or more aluminum-containing, organic compounds are dissolved in the solutions as stabilizers. The aluminum in such compounds is directly bonded to carbon and/or oxygen atoms. More specifically, the aluminum containing organic compounds are reaction products between aluminum alkoxides and one or more compounds having the formula:
WHEREIN R1 represents hydrogen, alkyl having up to 8 carbon atoms, aryl or aralkyl having up to 10 carbon atoms, alkoxy having up to 8 carbon atoms, aryloxy or aralkoxy having up to 10 carbon atoms, or a group having the formula:
AND THE GROUPS R2, R3, R4 and R5 each, and independently of each other, represent hydrogen, alkyl having up to 8 carbon atoms, or aryl or aralkyl having up to 10 carbon atoms. The aluminumcontaining organic compounds can be added to the solutions of metal carbonyls in an amount corresponding to 1 part by weight of aluminum to 50 to 200 parts by weight of the metal in the metal carbonyl.
Abstract:
The disclosure describes the reaction product produced by the reaction of about equal molar portions of (1) a polymeric succinic anhydride, polymeric succinic acid or polymer succinimide having an average molecular weight between about 250 and 2,500, and (2) a transition metal complexed with a polyamine.
Abstract:
A method of reducing manganese containing deposits formed on the surfaces of jet engines from burning fuel containing organomanganese compounds as a smoke reducer is described. The deposits are reduced by adding an organic molybdenum compound to the organomanganese containing fuel. Cyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl compounds are useful organomanganese compounds; molybdenum naphthenate is a useful molybdenum compound.
