JET FUELS WITH IMPROVED FLOW PROPERTIES

摘要

This invention relates to a jet fuel blend comprising a major amount of a kerosine fraction boiling within the range of 140 DEG to 250 DEG C and a minor amount of a naphtha fraction produced by the catalytic cracking of heavy gas oil which has a distillation range of T5 = 165 DEG C to T95 = 210 DEG C and an aromatics content of at least 50 % by volume such that the resultant jet fuel blend has a freezing point below that of the kerosine prior to blending. The blends of the present invention can achieve freezing points below -53.5 DEG C.
