Pachem-DCFI
CFI for Diesel Compositions
General Information:
Pachem-DCFI is an additive for diesel fuels and middle distillates which prevents the precipitation of paraffin and at the same it improves fluidity at low temperatures. It is flow improver of WAFI type Due to specially selected components, Pachem-DCFI reduces cold filter plugging point (CFPP) it is temperature at which there can occur interferences in fuel supply into engine in feed systems equipped with filter screen and preventing paraffins precipitation in tanks (so called WAFI action). Pachem-DCFI is highly viscous liquid with amber colour.
Typical Physical and Chemical Properties:
| Parameter | Unit | Value | Test method |
|---|---|---|---|
| Colour, at 20 ºC | - | Amber | PB-01 - Edition 1 |
| Density at 15 ºC | kg/m3 | 880 - 920 | PN-EN ISO 12185:2002 |
| Pour Point | ºC | < -14 | PN-EN ISO 3016:2005 |
| Flash Point | ºC | > 45 | PN-EN ISO 2719:2016 |
| Viscosity at 40 ºC | mm2/s | < 7 | PN-EN ISO 3104:2004 |
| Solubility in hydrocarbons | - | Very good | Visual inspection |
Application:
Pachem-DCFI is intended to improve such properties of diesel fuels and middle distillates as fluidity at low temperatures. The package reduces cold filter plugging point adjusting the properties at low temperatures to application in winter conditions.
Treat rate:
Typical dosage of Pachem-DCFI is 150-250 ppm weight.
In order to achieve maximal effectivity, this additive should be injected into the fuel at temperature about 10 °C above fuel’ cloud point. Adding cold flow improver into the fuel, where crystallization of paraffins has already occurred, significantly deteriorates or even stops its action.
Packaging:
Pachem-DCFI is available in bulk, 200 l barrels, or 1000-litre tanks (IBC). Other types of packaging are available on request.
