Method of enhancing the low temperature solution properties of a gasoline friction modifier

摘要

A fuel additive composition composed of the reaction product of (a) mixed fatty acid esters; (b) a mono or di-(hydroxy alkyl amine) or mixtures thereof; and (c) a low temperature property enhancing effective amount of a low molecular weight ester; wherein the reaction mixture has a molar ratio of amine to total ester content in the range from 10.0 to 1.0. The fuel additive exhibits detergent and friction reducing properties when added to a fuel thereto and further exhibits good low temperature stability properties. Methods for making the inventive composition and fuel compositions containing the additive are also disclosed.
