In comparative tests the additive decreased combustible carbon residue 60 to 90 percent. These results are evidence of more complete combustion. Ten 35 Combustion Catalyst is two fold. More complete combustion produces more useful energy while reducing soot and smoke. Ten 35 Combustion Catalyst contains a dispersant to stabilize fuel in storage.
Fuel oil begins to repolymerize as soon as it is refined.
Polymerization forms submicronic particles. As the process continues, particles become larger and agglomerate forming macroscopic sludge that plugs filters and injectors and eventually renders the fuel unpumpable. Ten 35 disperses existing macroscopic sludge, retards further polymerization, and permits fuel to be combusted efficiently. Ten 35 Combustion Catalyst contains a biocide that effectively eliminates a broad spectrum of microorganisms. It contains a corrosion inhibitor to mitigate internal tank corrosion and a detergent to help keep lines, filters, and atomizers clean.
