Descripción

General description

Kerosene is a medium petroleum fraction. It is widely used as a commercial fuel. Kerosene is a complex blend of aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons with carbon numbers ranging from C₉ – C₁₆ . Flashpoint, distillation range, burning characteristics, sulfur content, color, and cloud point are some of the important characteristics of kerosene.

Application

Kerosene is used:

• As a fuel in the preparation of kerosene–alumina nanofluid.
• In the preparation of carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) by an incomplete combustion method.
• In the synthesis of wrinkled graphene nanostructures by thermal decomposition followed by modified Hummers′ method.

Features and Benefits

Kerosene fuel is ideal for practical use due to its:

• High density
• High enthalpy
• Easy storage
