exocet® Anti-Wax Fuel Additive

exocet® Anti-Wax fuel additive is formulated to improve the cold flow and handling properties of diesel and gas oil.

Exocet® Anti-Wax works by changing the shape of wax crystals in fuel, making them smaller, the Anti-Wax additive co-crystallises with the fuel wax crystals as they form when the fuel cools down and therefore must be added before wax crystals appear at around 10°C above the cloud point of the fuel.
Anti-Wax must be added to fuel when it is at a temperature above its cloud point, that is to say before any wax starts to precipitate out of the fuel. The cloud point of summer gas oil and summer diesel is around +3°C and the cloud point of winter gas oil and winter diesel is -5°C.
Exocet® Anti-Wax is formulated by FAST in a solvent system to promote good mixing with diesel and gas oil. The fuel to be treated should be clear and bright with no
visible signs of waxing having begun, check a sample from the tank bottom, as often wax will sink to the bottom of a storage tank. The fuel temperature should be
above 6°C in winter and above 10°C in summer. For best results add the Exocet® Anti-Wax into the vessel at the correct dosage, 1L treats 1,000L fuel, then add the fuel
to be treated on top. The velocity of the fuel addition will give the fuel and Anti-Wax a thorough mix.
If additive is being added to a full tank of fuel, then the fuel and additive mixture should be recirculated using a pump.
