Abstract
A composition for improving the combustion efficiency of an internal combustion engine. The composition includes a mixture of a hydrocarbon fuel and an organometallic soap selected from among several cerium-containing and ferric compounds. The cerium-containing compound or compounds increase the energy released during combustion of the fuel. The ferric compound or compounds coat an interior wall of a combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine to increase the power output of the engine by reducing the accumulation of residues deposited on the interior wall which interfere with the combustion of fuel.
Claims20
A composition for improving performance of an internal combustion engine, the composition comprising:
- an iron-containing compound;
- and
- at least one synergistic carrier selected from the group consisting of:
- adamantane, biphenyl, naphthalene, camphor, camphene, (E)-1,2-diphenylethene, adamantanone, acenaphthene, and dicyclopentadiene.
A solid-state fuel additive for improving the combustion of a fuel in an internal combustion engine, the fuel additive comprising:
- an active ingredient comprising ferrocene or cerium octanoate;
- and
- a synergistic carrier comprising admanatane, biphenyl, or (E)-1,2-diphenylethene.
A method comprising the step of:
- (a) introducing into an internal combustion engine a hydrocarbon fuel and a fuel additive, the fuel additive comprising:
- an iron-containing compound;
- and
- at least one synergistic carrier selected from the group consisting of:
- adamantane, biphenyl, naphthalene, camphor, camphene, (E)-1,2-diphenylethene, adamantanone, acenaphthene, and dicyclopentadiene.
