ABSTRACT:
Compounds that are themselves effective cetane improvers in diesel fuel but are considered too explosion sensitive for safe handling can be rendered relatively nonsensitive by blending with C.sub.5 to C.sub.12 alkyl nitrates and the resulting blend is an effective cetane improver. An example is a 50--50 blend of 2-methyl-2-nitropropyl nitrate, a shock-sensitive compound, with isooctyl nitrate to give a relatively insensitive but very effective cetane improver.
