Abstract
Disclosed herein is a fuel blend comprising a hydrocarbon based fuel; and particles that comprise magnesium and boron. Disclosed herein too is a method comprising blending a composition comprising a hydrocarbon based fuel and particles that comprise magnesium and boron to form a fuel blend.
Claims15
A fuel blend comprising:
- a hydrocarbon based fuel;
- and
- a particulate mixture of boron particles, magnesium boride particles and magnesium oxide particles;
- where the magnesium is present in an amount of 14 to 28 wt. %, and where the boron is present in an amount of 70 to 90 wt. % based on the total weight of the particulate mixture;
- where the particulate mixture is present in an amount of 47 to 52 wt. % based on the total weight of the fuel blend.
