Abstract (en)

A fuel composition includes a major amount of fuel; a minor amount of a cetane number improver; and a minor amount of at least one tertiary alkyl primary amine of the formula: <CHEM> wherein: R1, R2, and R3 are each independently (C1-C21) alkyl, substituted (C1-C21) alkyl, (C1-C21) alkenyl or substituted (C1-C21) alkenyl. The improved fuel oil compositions enjoy improved stabilization against: 1) sediment formation, 2) color degradation during storage and distribution as well as improved cetane number, rust inhibition and demulsibility. Particularly, fuel oil compositions containing cetane improvers having improved thermal stability.
