Disclosed herein are compositions of matter having valuable combustion properties. The compositions are particularly desirable in combinations having enhanced ignition and continued combustion properties in forms based on natural source and manmade (reconstituted) firewood and briquettes for heating, cooking and the like. The compositions involved contain mixtures of straight chain and branched chain olefins and paraffins of selected molecular weight with preference for the co-presence of higher alcohols, the latter being particularly effective components for purposes of enhancing the fabrication and burning characteristics of some of the compositions.
