Quench Oil
Dow Aromatics fuel oil blending component products are mixtures of (mainly unsaturated) C9 to C15 components. They originate from the high temperature cracking of petroleum fractions and are separated out of pyrolysis gasoline (pygas) by distillation during the production of benzene.
Applications
The main application of Quench Oil is to be blended into fuel oils such as bunker fuels and fluxants.
