Adding N-Butanol and Di Isopropyl Ether to gasoline can improve its properties and engine performance. The researchers blended these oxygenates with gasoline in different ratios and found that DIPE blends had higher calorific value and octane number compared to N-Butanol blends. This means DIPE could be a better option for enhancing gasoline properties in refineries.
