Abstract
Abstract The method of stabilizing mineral oil and its refinery products by addition thereto of a small stabilizing amount of alternating copolymers of the type . . . A -- B -- A -- B -- A . . . in which A denotes the structural unit of the general formula --C(R.sup.1)(R.sup.2) - CH.sub.2 -- where R 1 denotes hydrogen or alkyl of from 1 to 8 carbon atoms and R 2 has the meanings stated for R 1 or denotes a phenyl group, and in which B stands for structural units of the general formulae ##STR1## where R 3 denotes a saturated hydrocarbon radical of from 8 to 20 carbon atoms and R 4 denotes hydrogen or alkyl of from 8 to 20 carbon atoms.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
130 words
A method of preventing sediments or deposits during the processing of mineral oil and its refinery products during distillation or other thermal treatment, which comprises adding to the mineral oil or its refinery products to be thermally treated (a) 10 to 50 ppm dicyclohexylamine, and (b) about 20 to 200 ppm of an alternating copolymer of the type . . . A--B--A--B--A . . . in which A denotes the structural unit --C(CH.sub.3).sub.2 --CH.sub.2 -- originating from isobutene and in which B stands for structural units of the formulae ##STR4## in which R 3 is alkyl of 8 to 20 carbon atoms and R 4 is hydrogen or alkyl of 8 to 20 carbon atoms, said copolymer having an average degree of polymerization of from 20 to 50 units AB.
