Jun 3, 1985

Appl. No.:

6/740161

Inventors:

Marshall E. Davis - Poughkeepsie NY
Rodney L. Sung - Fishkill NY

Assignee:

Texaco Inc. - White Plains NY

International Classification:

C10L 132

US Classification:

44 51

Abstract:

A process for converting a hazy, water-saturated alcohol-gasoline blend into a clear, stable gasoline composition having an improved octane rating. The conversion is made by adding to and blending with the hazy, water-saturated gasoline, a nonionic surfactant of an adduct of soya sterol and a polyalkylene oxide.

International Classification:

C10L 130

US Classification:

44 51

Abstract:

A process for converting a hazy or potentially hazy water saturated alcohol-gasoline blend into a clear, stable gasoline composition having an improved octane rating.
