Fuel Additives
(Octane Boosters & Anti-Knocking Solutions)
Overview
We supply a range of fuel additives that enhance gasoline performance by boosting octane levels and preventing engine knock. Our portfolio of octane boosters – including aromatics and amine-based additives – is crucial for refineries, fuel blenders, and distributors aiming to meet fuel grade requirements (such as achieving a higher Research Octane Number (RON) and Motor Octane Number (MON)). KSA Synergy’s fuel additives are sourced from reputable chemical manufacturers and delivered under strict safety and environmental standards. We understand the regulatory frameworks governing fuel additives (for example, limits on certain substances in finished gasoline) and ensure our products and documentation are fully compliant. Whether clients need to improve a fuel’s octane rating or replace phased-out additives with modern alternatives, we provide expert guidance on usage and dosage.
In delivering fuel additives, KSA Synergy adds value beyond just supply. We offer technical insight on how these additives can be integrated into your fuel formulation for optimal results. Moreover, our commitment to safety and environmental responsibility means we help you handle and dispose of these chemicals properly. With KSA Synergy’s fuel additive solutions, clients in the petrochemical and energy sector can achieve superior fuel performance, meet regulatory standards, and do so with confidence in the supply chain.
N-Methyl Aniline (NMA)
An effective organic octane booster used to increase the RON of gasoline. NMA slows down the combustion rate of fuel, thereby raising octane and reducing engine knocking. It is often used as a replacement for older lead-based additives, as it contains no heavy metals. KSA Synergy offers high-purity N-Methyl Aniline suitable for blending into petrol; our product comes with consistent assay levels to ensure predictable performance gains (often improving octane by several points at low treat rates). We emphasize safe handling and transport for NMA (a hazardous chemical) and provide guidance so that fuel blenders use it within permissible limits. By supplying quality NMA, we help refiners and fuel marketers achieve desired octane results in a cost-effective and environmentally conscious manner.
Methylcyclopentadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl (MMT)
A metallic fuel additive containing manganese, used worldwide in small concentrations to boost octane and anti-knock properties. MMT can significantly increase gasoline octane ratings with very low dosing, making it a popular choice in markets where regulatory agencies allow its use. KSA Synergy supplies Manganese-based MMT additives that are manufactured under strict quality controls, ensuring a uniform composition that maximizes octane improvement while minimizing deposits. We stay abreast of regulatory guidelines on manganese content in fuel and assist clients in balancing performance with compliance. When you procure MMT through KSA Synergy, you get a product that is potent and reliable, along with technical support on blending techniques to safely gain the benefits of this additive.
Xylene
An aromatic hydrocarbon (typically a mix of isomers ortho-, meta-, and para-xylene) used as a high-octane blending component in gasoline. Xylene naturally has a high octane number and helps refiners increase the overall RON/MON when blended into petrol, while also serving as a solvent in industrial applications. We provide industrial-grade Xylene that meets the required specifications for use in fuel blending (water content, purity, etc.). KSA Synergy’s logistics team is experienced in handling bulk aromatic hydrocarbons – we ensure safe loading, proper drumming or isotank provision, and adherence to transport regulations (IMDG code for marine shipments, for example). With our Xylene supply, fuel producers can improve gasoline quality and knock resistance, and chemical manufacturers can obtain a reliable solvent for various processes.
Methyl Tertiary-Butyl Ether (MTBE)
A classic oxygenated fuel additive that boosts octane and improves combustion efficiency. MTBE is used to raise octane and oxygenate fuel, which can lead to cleaner burning and reduced engine knock. It has been widely utilized in gasoline blending in Asia and the Middle East. KSA Synergy supplies high-purity MTBE with low moisture content, appropriate for refineries and petrochemical companies. We recognize that regulations for MTBE use vary by region (due to environmental considerations), so we provide up-to-date information and alternatives if needed. For clients using MTBE, we ensure timely delivery from our network of producers, competitive pricing based on market trends, and full compliance with import/export requirements. Our MTBE offering helps fuel blenders maintain octane levels and meet performance specs, backed by our assurance of product quality and consistent availability.
