Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Low-viscosity marine fuel oil that is obtained from the products of residual raw materials and middle distillate fractions of oil is intended for use in ship engines instead of a diesel fuel. A real-world application of this new composition is of great importance A proposed new composition of low-viscosity marine fuel oil is created by compounding a mixture of oil distillates in accordance with the following parameters. The oil distillate mixture should contain a vacuum distillate fraction 420-490°C, a vacuum distillate fraction 350-420°C and a straight-run diesel fraction 180-350°C taken in certain ratios. This study presents the new fuel composition and its technical advantages over previous analogues. The benefits include improvements in the coking properties and storage stability due to the stability in the pour point indicator.
