ABSTRACT:
The octane requirement increase phenomenon in a spark ignition internal combustion engine is controlled by introducing with the combustion charge a fuel composition containing an octane requirement increase-inhibiting amount of a compound selected from the group consisting of fused aromatics having at least 2, preferably between 3 and 5, aromatic rings with no heteroatoms substituted in the rings. Usually the polynuclear aromatic is added to the fuel in an amount between about 0.1 and 5.0 weight percent on the fuel. In particular, anthracene and phenanthrene, provide effective octane requirement increase-inhibiting additives for unleaded gasoline.
