Abstract

Abstract In this paper, hydroxyacetic acid esters (glycolic esters) were synthesized and used as phase stabilizer and saturation vapour pressure depressor of methanol-gasoline. The results show that the stabilities of the blends depend on the length of the glycolic esters' alkoxy group. Among these glycolic esters, hexyl glycolic ester and octyl glycolic ester were found to be the most effective in various gasoline-methanol blends. Besides, the glycolic ...
