Definitions

  • Low sulfur mineral oil distillates with improved cold properties, comprising an ester of an alkoxylated polyol and a copolymer of ethylene and unsaturated esters
  • the invention relates to low-sulfur mineral oil distillates with improved cold flowability and paraffin dispersion, comprising an ester of an alkoxylated polyol and a copolymer of ethylene and unsaturated esters, paraffin-dispersing additives and their use.
  • Crude oils and middle distillates obtained by distilling crude oils such as gas oil, diesel oil or heating oil contain different amounts of n-paraffins depending on the origin of the crude oils, which crystallize out as platelet-shaped crystals when the temperature is lowered and partly agglomerate with the inclusion of oil.
  • This crystallization and agglomeration leads to a deterioration in the flow properties of the oils or distillates, as a result of which faults can occur during the extraction, transport, storage and / or use of the mineral oils and mineral oil distillates.
  • the crystallization phenomenon can lead to deposits on the pipe walls, especially in winter, in individual cases, for example when a pipeline is at a standstill, even causing it to become completely blocked.
  • Typical flow improvers for crude oils and middle distillates are copolymers and terpolymers of ethylene with carboxylic acid esters of vinyl alcohol.
  • Another task of flow improver additives is to disperse the wax crystals, i.e. the delay or prevention of sedimentation of the paraffin crystals and thus the formation of a paraffin-rich layer on the bottom of storage containers.

  • the paraffin dispersion in middle distillates was determined as follows in the short sediment test: 150 ml of the middle distillates mixed with the additive components given in the table were cooled in 200 ml measuring cylinders in a refrigerator at -2 ° C / hour to -13 ° C and for 16 hours Temperature stored. The volume and appearance of both the sedimented paraffin phase and the oil phase above it were then determined and assessed visually. A small amount of sediment with a homogeneously cloudy oil phase or a large sediment volume with a clear oil phase show good paraffin dispersion. In addition, the lower 20% by volume were isolated and the cloud point determined in accordance with ISO 3015. A slight deviation of the cloud point of the lower phase (CP «s) from the blank value of the oil shows good paraffin dispersion.
  • the CFPP activity of the esters A according to the invention was measured in combination with equal amounts of C and D in test oil 1 as follows:

Abstract

L'invention concerne des distillats moyens présentant une teneur en soufre maximale de 0,05 % en poids. Ces distillats contiennent des esters d'acide gras de polyols alcoxylés présentant au moins 3 groupes OH (A) ainsi qu'au moins un additif améliorant la fluidité à froid (B). Selon la présente invention, cet additif améliorant la fluidité à froid contient au moins un copolymère d'éthylène et d'un ou de plusieurs esters d'acide carboxylique éthyléniquement insaturés, lequel copolymère présente une proportion d'éthylène de 60 à 90 % en moles.
