Patent
·
OSTI ID:1531424
A diesel fuel composition is set forth for an increased cetane number vis-a-vis conventional diesel fuel compositions. The composition generally comprises one or more compounds selected from the dialkoxy alkane (DAAK) chemical family. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the diesel fuel composition consists of moderate amounts of dimethoxy propane (DMPP) and dimethoxy ethane (DMET) blended into a conventional diesel fuel.
