Abstract

The effect of oxidized graphene on the quality parameters of diesel fuel for transport was examined in this ‎study. The research covered base diesel fuel and diesel fuel containing an additive package. ‎Both tested fuels contained no biocomponent. The method of preparing a stable mixture of ‎graphene material in each tested diesel fuels was developed for research purposes. ‎Then, for the fuel samples prepared in this way, tests of quality parameters specified in EN ‎‎590 [1] were performed, and the test results were related to the criteria indicated in the ‎mentioned standard. For parameters where it was technically possible to perform the ‎determination, the results showed the influence of the graphene material on the content of ‎solid impurities, oxidative stability and lubricity. For fuel samples containing oxidized ‎graphene, the stability of the mixture under storage conditions was also examined.
