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
