What is the Difference Between No. 0 Diesel and No. -10 Diesel?
1 Answers
No. 0 diesel has a higher freezing point than No. -10 diesel. The higher the cetane number in diesel, the lower its freezing point. Therefore, the cetane content differs between No. 0 and No. -10 diesel, leading to price variations. Diesel is also classified into premium, first-grade, and qualified products based on sulfur content. Below are relevant details: 1. Diesel: The primary use of diesel is for diesel engines in vehicles and ships. Compared to gasoline, diesel has higher energy density and lower fuel consumption rate. Due to its low energy consumption, some small cars and even high-performance vehicles have switched to diesel. 2. Freezing Point: The freezing point refers to the highest temperature at which the surface of a cooled oil sample no longer moves under specified test conditions, measured in °C. Freezing point and cold filter plugging point are key indicators of diesel's low-temperature performance.
