06 Mar 2019-Fullerenes Nanotubes and Carbon Nanostructures (Informa UK Limited)-Vol. 27, Iss: 4, pp 358-366
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of MWCNTs dispersed into diesel fuel were examined by dispersing multi-walled carbon nanotubes into the diesel fuel, and the results showed that the effects on diesel fuel consumption were minimal.
Abstract: This article deals with an experimental work that aims to examine the effects of MWCNTs dispersed into diesel fuels. Nano diesel fuels were prepared by dispersing multi-walled carbon nanotubes into...
