The properties of biodiesel get aggravated when metals are exposed into it. The present study aims to investigate the effect of antioxidants on the fuel properties of palm biodiesel upon exposure to copper and mild steel. The used antioxidants include pyrogallol (PY) and butylated hydro-oxy toluene (BHT). Static immersion tests of metal coupons in palm biodiesel in the absence and presence (500 ppm)...
The scarcity of fossil fuel has recently been introduced as a major concern to energy policy. This crisis has prompted the search for alternative energy sources. Biodiesel can be considered as one of the potential candidates of energy sources in order to resolve this problem. Most of the fuel properties of biodiesel are very close to that of petroleum diesel. However, commercial use of biodiesel in...
Recently biodiesel, as an alternative fuel is getting more significance to replace diesel fuel completely or partially. However, corrosion of automotive materials in biodiesel is a major concern as this can reduce engine life. This study aims to investigate the corrosion behavior of mild steel at three different temperatures such as room temperature, 50 and 80 °C. Static immersion tests in B0 (diesel),...
