Product Name: 2-Ethylhexyl Nitrate
Trade Name: 2-EHN

CAS No: 27247-96-7

Properties:

Diesel hexadecane value is the ignition performance of a reflection of the diesel engine combustion. Hexadecane value is too low, may extend the diesel fuel in the combustion chamber, serious when it is detonation, which can make the engine power decrease, abrasion, rising oil consumption, smoke. It is environmental protection. this material have high purity and can effectively improve diesel cetane number, improve hexadecane start-up performance and improve diesel combustion performance.

Cetane number improver is also called diesel cetane number improver
Cetane number of diesel is the main index of anti-knock property of diesel oil.
The surface phenomenon of diesel engine knock is similar to that of gasoline engine, but the cause of knock is different.
Although both detonation originated from the spontaneous combustion of fuel, the cause of diesel engine detonation is just the opposite of gasoline engine, because diesel is not easy to spontaneous combustion, the beginning of spontaneous combustion, fuel accumulation in the cylinder caused by too much.
Therefore, the cetane number of diesel also represents the naturalness of diesel.
The cetane number is 100 n-cetane. If the knock resistance of some oil is the same as that of standard fuel containing 52% n-cetane, the cetane number of the oil is 52..
The use of high diesel fuel, diesel engine combustion uniformity, high thermal power, fuel saving.
Generally speaking, high speed diesel engines with a speed of 1000 RPM use light diesel with a cetane value of 45-50, while medium and low speed diesel engines with a speed of less than 1000 RPM can use heavy diesel with a cetane value of 35-49.

Function
☆ Will not change technical standard on Diesel oil Oxide stability
☆ Obvious cetane increase: use small dosage can increase high cetane points (especially on re-processing diesel oil). Can increase 3-12 points by adding 200-2000ppm additive.
☆ Reduce environmental pollutant, save fuel oil: Cetane Improver will enhance complete burning of diesel oil reduce tail gas release, save fuel oil.
☆Optimize vehicle operation: Cetane Improver can improve fuel oil burning performance, shorten pre-heating period, improve start-up function at low temperature, increase dynamics.

Usage
☆ Recommend dosage: 250-2000ppm (cetane improve effects various as to different fuel oil. Should base on actual data prior to usage)
☆ In refinery blending work shop, directly added into finished oil with fixed ratio taken from calculation pump.

Product uses

2-Ethylhexyl Nitrate improves the combustion characteristics of diesel, shortens the

ignition delay period of diesel engines, and reduces the noise of diesel engines.

Product package

190 kg/barrel or according to customer requirements.

2-ethylhexyl nitrate (2-EHN) is a colorless, oily liquid with a slight bitterness and odor.

It is commonly used in the manufacturing of diesel engines as a fuel additive to improve

cetane number and combustion efficiency. However, the product is not without danger

and appropriate precautions must be taken during handling.

ACF Chemical Co., Ltd.
The Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for 2-ethylhexyl nitrate outlines some safety issues and

preventive measures to be taken when using this chemical. Before handling any hazardous

substances, SDS should always be consulted to ensure appropriate safety measures are

taken and to understand the risks associated with the product.

According to SDS, 2-EHN is considered a moderately hazardous substance that, if inhaled,

can cause serious skin and eye irritation, as well as respiratory system problems. If ingested,

it is also toxic, and long-term exposure can lead to liver damage and central nervous system

depression.

Therefore, when using this product, it is necessary to wear appropriate personal protective

equipment, including protective gloves, goggles, and respirators. It is important to avoid

ingestion at all times and to pay close attention to hand hygiene when handling this chemical.

Ensure proper ventilation in the work area to minimize inhalation risk.

Understanding the handling and disposal guidelines outlined in SDS is crucial. 2-EHN is

considered hazardous waste and should be disposed of in accordance with local and

national regulations. It should be stored in a closed container, in a cool and dry place,

away from heat, sparks, and flames.

In summary, 2-ethylhexyl nitrate can be used to improve combustion efficiency. However,

appropriate safety and preventive measures must be maintained when handling this

chemical. It is necessary to carefully pay attention to the handling and disposal guidelines

of SDS to ensure the safety of operators and the environment.

What сetane improver additives are necessary for?

Сetane improver additives managed to get so wide distribution due to their properties which arise at their addition to fuel. The increase of cetane number contributes to some favorable properties of fuel: successful start of the engine in the low temperature conditions, great environmental friendliness (emission of harmful substances in the atmosphere considerably decreases) and silence of work in comparison with work on fuel with a smaller cetane-indicator.

Structure

High-purity 2-Ethylhexyl nitrate.

Features that should be known

Popularity of the сetane improver additive 2-Ethylhexyl nitrate is explained by a number of advantages:

• it’s interchangeable with additives of foreign production;
• is applied together with the antiwear and dispersant and depressor additives with full saving of diesel fuel properties, including long storage;
• tests of diesel fuels with the additive have shown that the quality of domestic additive doesn’t concede to foreign analogues;
• it is registered according to the regulations of REACH.

Where to use?

It is possible to distinguish three main directions of use of the 2-Ethylhexyl nitrate additive:

• middle distillates with narrow fractional structure and temperature distillation indicators: DT (90–20 %) from 70 to 100 °С; DТ (end boiling point 90%) from 17 to 25 °С;
• wide fractions of distillates with DT value of 90-20 % from 100 to 120 °С and end boiling point below 380 °C (ASTM D86 distillation);
• high-boiling distillates with endl boiling point above 380 °C.

It is recommended to use the cetane improver additives together with dispersant and depressor and antiwear ones. Their combined usage allows to achieve the increase of the oil refinery profit. It occurs because of the high selling value of diesel fuel which proves correct by the increased quality of ignition, low engine noise, the reduced emission and easy starting of engines at low temperatures.

Activity of 2-Ethylhexyl nitrate in figures

After addition of 0,6 % of the additive to diesel fuel the cetane number raises from 48 units to 57,8. Diesel Fuel EURO as per GOST P 52368-2005. As a result of running tests the cetane improver 2-Ethylhexyl nitrate additive showed itself from the best side.
