Adding color to gasoline

2015-10-29View Original

Thread Content

For a project abroad, it’s necessary to add a red liquid to gasoline, just as odorants are added to liquefied hydrocarbons. Have you heard of something like that?

I seem to have seen red gasoline; what is the purpose of adding color? Is it just adding color? Other modifiers were still added.

I don’t know; it seems like information has been leaked so that it can be seen clearly

I think I’ve seen that **gasoline is also red; you can search on Baidu – it seems to be a red-colored explosion-proof agent. Check to see if there are additives such as MMT; too much of these additives might cause a change in color. I’ve never heard of a method specifically used to color gasoline so that its leakage is more noticeable.

You are really thorough – you pay such close attention even when watching movies. I checked online, but there was no information available.

Is it a gasoline anti-knock agent, orange in color?

Antioxidants also come in a liquid red version

**Gasoline with this additive is also available; it’s called \"red oil.\" It doesn’t affect the properties of the gasoline itself, but it’s used to distinguish between gasoline that has tax already included and that hasn’t. The gasoline containing red oil is **already taxed**, and the amount of red oil used is very small. Added at the factory when leaving the oil depot.
