Abstract
⺠Best cold-flow improvers were 2-butyl esters of palm oil. ⺠Pour and cloud points were decreased about 6 °C. ⺠DSC analyses showed that additives decrease crystallization points of biodiesel. ⺠Particle size analyses showed that the additives act by decreasing crystal sizes. ⺠2-Butyl esters of palm oil did not have detrimental impact on fuel properties.
