Technical Details & Test Data

Performance Data

Northshore CA1801 shows excellent permance in diesel and fuel oil. The graph shows typical response of CA1801 to commercial diesel. Due to the nature and chemical mechanism of free radicals creation, the responsiveness of diesel to cetane number improver depends on the original cetane number of the base stock.
