The authors mathematically establish the premise that the magnitude of the relative change in kinematic viscosity of petroleum systems due to the presence of nonpolar solvents increases in proportion to the density of the solvent molecules per unit volume and experimentally verify the premise in comparative assessments of several hydrocarbon solvents--benzene, cyclohexane, hexane, heptane, octane, and isooctane--and their action on the viscosities of crudes from the Karazhanbas, Kara-Arna, and Uzen fields in the Soviet Union.
