〔産業上の利用分野〕
本発明はメタノールを主成分とする輝炎性を向上させた
燃料組成物に関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a fuel composition containing methanol as a main component and having improved flame resistance.
メタノールは、石油代替燃料としであるいは排気の公害
面から見た場合クリーンな燃料であるという点で重要視
され現在メタノールエンジンの開発が急がれているが、
メタノールは燃料もれをおこし、着火し次場合炎青色の
炎を上げて燃焼する為、日中又は明りをつけた室部の中
等では炎が目に見えず、安全性の面で問題があった。Methanol is considered important because it is a clean fuel in terms of its use as an alternative to petroleum fuel and in terms of exhaust pollution, and the development of methanol engines is currently being hurried.
Methanol causes fuel leakage, ignites, and then burns with a blue flame, so the flame is invisible during the day or in a room with lights on, which poses a safety problem. Ta.
このような問題点を解決する手段として、メタノール燃
料中に石油系炭化水素留分を混合することにより、メタ
ノール系燃料の炎を可視化したものが提案されているが
（特開昭５９−２０７９８７号公報）、この方法におい
ては、メタノールに対し石油系留分を数チ混合する必要
があるので、メタノール燃料としての価値を損う傾向が
あった。As a means to solve these problems, it has been proposed to visualize the flame of methanol fuel by mixing a petroleum hydrocarbon fraction with methanol fuel (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 59-207987). In this method, it is necessary to mix several petroleum fractions with methanol, which tends to reduce the value of methanol as a fuel.
本発明は前記従来技術における問題点を解決するもので
あって、メタノール燃料に極めて少量の添加剤を添加す
ることにょ９炎を可視化しうるメタノール系燃料を提供
することを目的とするものである。The present invention solves the problems in the prior art described above, and aims to provide a methanol-based fuel in which flames can be visualized by adding a very small amount of additive to methanol fuel. .
本発明は、メタノール系燃料に、炎色反応を起す金属の
メタノールに可溶性有機化合物を混合してなるメタノー
ル系燃料である。The present invention is a methanol-based fuel prepared by mixing an organic compound soluble in methanol, which is a metal that causes a flame reaction, with a methanol-based fuel.
本発明者等は、メタノール燃料の安全性について種々検
討していたところ、メタノールに対して可溶性で炎色反
応をおこす金属の有機化合物を溶解することにより、も
れた燃料に着火する事故が発生しても直ちに発見するこ
とができることを見いだし本発明をなすに至った。The inventors of the present invention conducted various studies on the safety of methanol fuel, and discovered an accident in which leaked fuel ignited due to the dissolution of a metal organic compound that is soluble in methanol and causes a flame reaction. The present inventors have discovered that the present invention can be easily discovered even when the method is used.
本発明で用いる炎色反応を起す金属の有機化合物として
はメタノールに可溶であれば、どのような化合物を用い
てもよい。As the organic compound of the metal that causes the flame reaction used in the present invention, any compound may be used as long as it is soluble in methanol.
リチウムの有機酸塩例えば酢酸リチウムは赤色炎色反応
を呈し、またナトリウムの有機酸塩は黄色炎色反応を呈
するが、各金属の炎色反応は既知であジ、透明でなく可
視化し易い炎色反応を呈する金属の化合物を用いるのが
好ましい。Organic acid salts of lithium, such as lithium acetate, exhibit a red flame reaction, and organic acid salts of sodium exhibit a yellow flame reaction, but the flame reaction of each metal is known, and the flame is not transparent and easily visualized. Preference is given to using compounds of metals that exhibit a color reaction.
そして、本発明で用いる金属の有機化合物、例えば酢酸
リチウムは５０ ｐｐｍ程度混入するのみで晴天時にお
いても炎色を肉眼で見ることができ、しかも少量混入す
れば足りるので燃料としてのメタノールの性状に悪影響
を与えることなく、且つメタノールが全て燃えるまで炎
色反応を呈する。The organic compound of the metal used in the present invention, for example, lithium acetate, is mixed in at only about 50 ppm, and the color of the flame can be seen with the naked eye even on a clear day.Moreover, since it is sufficient to mix in a small amount, it does not affect the properties of methanol as a fuel. It exhibits a flame reaction without any adverse effects and until all the methanol is burned.
実施例１
メタノール燃料に対し１００ ｐｐｍの酢酸リチウムを
溶解せしめた。該燃料は、赤色の炎を上げて燃え、炎を
肉眼で明確に識別可能であった。Example 1 100 ppm of lithium acetate was dissolved in methanol fuel. The fuel burned with a red flame that was clearly visible to the naked eye.
酢酸リチウムと酢酸ナトリウムとの重量で１：１の割合
での混合物を用いた場合、酢酸リチウム単独で用いた場
合に比し、炎をより明りように見ることができた。When a mixture of lithium acetate and sodium acetate was used in a ratio of 1:1 by weight, the flame was more visible than when lithium acetate was used alone.
