Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a cetane-boosting fuel additive includes reacting formaldehyde and 2-ethylhexanol at a mole ratio of 10:1 to 1:1, or 5:1 to 1.5:1, or 4:1 to 2:1, or 3.5:1 to 2.5:1 in the presence of a heterogeneous acid catalyst at a temperature of 300 to 375° K to obtain a cetane-boosting product mixture comprising H3C(CH2)3CH(CH2CH3)CH2(OCH2)nOH, H3C(CH2)3CH(CH2CH3)CH2(OCH2)nOCH2CH(CH2CH3)(CH2)3CH3, or a combination thereof, wherein n has an average value of 2.8 to 3.2, preferably an average value of 3.
