GELLED HYDROCARBON-BASED FUEL COMPOSITION AND PROCESS FOR PREPARING SUCH A COMPOSITION

摘要

The invention relates to a gelled hydrocarbon-based fuel composition and to the process for manufacturing same. The gelled hydrocarbon-based fuel composition comprises at least 70% by weight of a liquid hydrocarbon-based fuel and at least one organogelling compound capable of forming, with the liquid hydrocarbon-based fuel, a shear-thinning physical gel. The invention also relates to the use of an organogelling compound as a performance additive of a liquid hydrocarbon-based fuel, in particular for improving the cold-resistance properties of the liquid hydrocarbon-based fuel.
