It depends on what kind of diesel it is It is said that military diesel can be stored for a year without any significant changes in its properties. Ordinary diesel for civilian use, especially those with a low proportion of hydrogenated products, varies between the morning and afternoon. Additionally, if 1 liter of diesel is placed in a transparent, open container, and it is coker diesel, it only takes about 2 hours for its color to change from light brown to dark brown. However, for diesel that has undergone deep hydrogenation, its color hardly changes after being stored for five days.
It is because you don’t have a thorough understanding of the oxidation stability of oils that you hold such an opinion.
Storage in laboratories and storage in ordinary outdoor tanks
It is related to the degree of oxidation stability
There are not many changes when stored in a sealed environment; however, when stored at normal pressure and exposed to oxygen, the color becomes more and more intense
Regular diesel does not change color significantly after being stored for half a year.
