Study Concerning the Corrosive Activity Properties of Monatomic Alcohol-Gasoline Blends

The paper studies the corrosive activity of the monatomic alcohol (ethanol, butanol) - gasoline mixtures on the materials from which the internal combustion engines are made. The corrosive influence of these blends was determined in dependence of their composition. It was established that the addition of butanol and triethylamine in the ethanol-gasoline mixture essentially reduces the corrosive activity of this mixture.
