Jet Fuel Solutions

Nalco Water aviation performance additives help protect fuel quality and critical equipment. All products used in aviation fuels require extensive regulatory and OEM approvals. There are only a handful of companies who have approved products, and Nalco Water has been providing aviation fuel additives for over 35 years. 

Inhibit Oxidation 

Our antioxidants are designed to inhibit the oxidation of jet fuel and aviation gasoline. These antioxidants control peroxides, and do not contribute to deposit formation. EC5208A and EC5208B are used in military and commercial fuels. 

Approvals:  

  • Aviation Turbine Fuels, US Dept. of Defence 
  • MTL-DTL-83133, MTL-DTL-5624 
  • UK Ministry of Defence  
  • MTL DEFSTAN 91-091, 91-087, 91-086 
  • Qualification Reference – RDE/A/609 
  • Aviation Gasoline – MIL-G-5572 
  • Motor Gasoline – MIL-G-3056 
  • Naval Distillate Fuel – MIL-F-16884H 

Protect Finished Fuel Product Quality

Our corrosion inhibitor and lubricity improver are designed to protect the quality of finished petroleum products by assuring optimum corrosion protection for pipelines and tanks. NALCO 5403 and NALCO 5405 are used in military aviation turbine fuels as a corrosion inhibitor and lubricity improver. 

Approvals:  

  • US Dept of Defence, QPL-25017 
  • UK Ministry of Defence, QPL 68-251 
  • DEFSTAN 91-091 for use in aviation turbine fuels  
  • Listed on ASTM D-910 as approved for aviation turbine fuel 
  • Listed on ASTM D-910 as approved for aviation gasoline 

Reduce Risk of Static Discharge Event

Our static dissipating additive is designed to help reduce the risk of a static discharge event. The static dissipating additive does not harm aviation fuel properties and is compatible with other aviation-approved additives and is compatible with engine and airframe materials. The conductivity performance of treated fuel does not deteriorate over time when stored at low temperatures. 

Approvals: 

  • ASTM D1655  
  • ASTM D7566 (SAF) 
  • US MIL-DTL-83133 
  • DefStan 91-091 
  • CAN / CGSB-3.23-2019 
  • CAN / CGSB-3.24-2019
