Thus gasoline without any 9d0itives would be expected to i <br /> have an overall solubility which was considerable lose than the sum of the <br /> Individual solubilities. Methyl tertiary butyl other MT02. mathanol and <br /> ethanol are added to gasoline to improve the octane rating and/or to improve f <br /> the tolerance for moisture. Willa MTBE appears to have little influence on the WIN <br /> water solubility of other 8aeoline components, both methanol and ethanol <br /> provide considercble enhancements. <br /> Page 4 <br /> CENTRAL COAST ANALYTICAL SERVICES San Luis Obispo, California 805 543-2553 <br /> P { � <br />
