Dual Action Additives for Jet A-1: Fuel Dehydrating Icing Inhibitors (2016)
Journal Article
Lam, J. K., Repetto, S. L., Repetto, S., Patel, R., Johnson, T., Costello, J. F., …Chuck, C. J. (2016). Dual Action Additives for Jet A-1: Fuel Dehydrating Icing Inhibitors. Energy and Fuels, 30(11), 9080-9088. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.energyfuels.6b01727

© 2016 American Chemical Society. A novel approach for protecting jet fuel against the effects of water contamination based upon Fuel Dehydrating Icing Inhibitors (FDII) is presented. This dual-action strategy is predicated on the addition of a fuel-... Read More about Dual Action Additives for Jet A-1: Fuel Dehydrating Icing Inhibitors.

The hydrolysis of geminal ethers: A kinetic appraisal of orthoesters and ketals (2016)
Journal Article
Lam, J. K., Repetto, S. L., Repetto, S., Costello, J. F., Butts, C. P., Lam, J. K. W., & Ratcliffe, N. M. (2016). The hydrolysis of geminal ethers: A kinetic appraisal of orthoesters and ketals. Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 12, 1467-1475. https://doi.org/10.3762/bjoc.12.143

© 2016 Repetto et al. A novel approach to protecting jet fuel against the effects of water contamination is predicated upon the coupling of the rapid hydrolysis reactions of lipophilic cyclic geminal ethers, with the concomitant production of a hydro...

Current and potential aviation additives for higher biofuel blends in Jet A-1 (2016)
Book Chapter
Repetto, S., Costello, J. F., & Parmenter, D. (2016). Current and potential aviation additives for higher biofuel blends in Jet A-1. In C. Chuck (Ed.), Biofuels for Aviation (261-275). Elsevier

Since a perfect ‘drop in’ fuel that mimics conventional aviation kerosene without the need for blending is unlikely to be developed in the near future, this chapter considers the range of additives available to modify biofuels to meet the rigorous av...
