Abstract
This invention relates to imides of .alpha.-olefin-maleic copolymers and to blends of imides of .alpha.-olefin-maleic copolymer and .alpha.-olefin-sulfur dioxide copolymers; and to systems, such as hydrocarbon fuels, containing such compositions as antistatic agents.
Claims6
An antistatic composition comprising an organic fluid containing an antistatic amount, in the concentration of 1 to 10 parts per million, of an antistatic agent consisting of (1) a polymer containing .alpha.-olefin units selected from the group consisting of 1-decene, 1-dodecene, 1-tetradecene and 1-octadecene units and maleimide units and (2) a 1-decene-SO.sub.2 copolymer, the ratio of maleimide copolymer to SO.sub.2 copolymer being 100:1 to 1:100.
