Anti-oxidant Additives for
Fuel Stability
Extend Fuel Shelf Life. Enhance Oxidation Resistance. Ensure Compliance.
Why Anti-oxidants Matter in Fuels
Oxidation is one of the biggest threats to fuel quality—especially in biofuels like FAME, biodiesel, and low-sulfur diesel blends. Exposure to oxygen, heat, light, or trace metals can trigger degradation, resulting in:
Gum formation and sludge
Acid number increase
Poor combustion
Blocked filters
Failed compliance with EN 14214 or ASTM D6751
Rodanco’s advanced AO series seriesfuel anti-oxidant additives are engineered to prevent these problems—preserving fuel integrity from refinery blending to storage tanks and end-use.
Rodanco's High-Performance Antioxidant Portfolio
We offer a robust range of pure and solvent-based antioxidant formulations tailored to refinery, terminal, or in-field applications. Each product is optimized for solubility, oxidation inhibition, and regulatory compliance.
