Is China VI Standard Fuel Ethanol Gasoline?
1 Answers
No. China VI gasoline and ethanol gasoline are two completely different concepts. In addition to reducing vehicle emissions, the use of China VI fuel also reduces the formation of engine carbon deposits and engine wear due to lower levels of combustion waste and impurities, which can extend engine life to some extent. Ethanol gasoline, on the other hand, is a new alternative fuel formed by mixing fuel ethanol and regular gasoline in a certain proportion. China VI gasoline has the following characteristics: 1. Stricter olefin content limits: reduced from 24% to 18% in China VIa phase and 15% in China VIb phase; 2. Stricter aromatic content limits: reduced from 40% to 35%; 3. Stricter benzene content limits: reduced from 1% to 0.8%, stricter than the EU standard of 1%; 4. Stricter gasoline distillation 50% evaporation temperature limits: reduced from 120°C to 110°C.
