“…The number of reactive compounds is large and the chemical mechanism by which they are converted into insoluble products has not yet been established in spite of many years of investigations. Some authors 17 suggested that the sediment precursor compounds may be formed by the condensation of phenalenones with indoles. Others reported on significant molecular transformation during oxidation of base oils, resulting in the formation of naphtenes and alkyl benzenes with shorter chain length via polar intermediates.…”

“…2,3 At this point we can only speculate on possible mechanisms of degradation due to complexity of the system but degradation pathways may be similar to those mentioned above. 10,16,17 Additional experiments using other techniques are needed to gain further insight into this matter. However, the potential of NMR spectroscopy lies in the fact that it can give accurate data on percentage of different hydrocarbons present before and after oxidation and hence can further be exploited to become a standard method for determination of the oxidation stability.…”

“…The optical transmission through the fused silica windows had to be calibrated with a transparent fluid flowing though the optical cell during the calibration measurements, with the transparent fluid having a refractive index matching those of the diesel samples. This was in 25 order to calibrate the effect of the laser passing from the entrance fused silica window into the diesel sample, to be followed by the laser exiting the diesel, and entering the exit fused silica window.…”

“…The aged diesel samples would have been more susceptible to aromatic pyrolysis to form particles than the fresh commercial diesel samples, due to their reduced fuel stability as a result of long-term storage [25,26].…”

“…Although it was not detected in the No. 2 fuel oil consumed in the oil burner study, phenalenone may form as an oxidation product in thermally or catalytically cracked middle distillate fuels (such as diesel fuel or number 2 fuel oil) during storage under ambient conditions (Pedley et al, 1988;Marshman, 1990). Because concentrations of up to 100 mg phenalenone/liter were reported in these fuels (Marshman, 1990), there is the possibility that emissions of unburned fuel from engines and combustors may be significant contributors to the presence of phenalenone in the atmosphere.…”
