| abstract |
Additive composition for use in a fuel or lubricant formulation, comprising an active substance which is present as a guest molecule in an inclusion complex with a modified cyclodextrin of formula (I) : wherein n is an integer from 6 to 20, and R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are each independently selected from hydrogen, optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted aryl and carbonyl, provided that R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are not all hydrogen. Also provided is a fuel or lubricant formulation comprising the additive composition, a premix for use in preparing the additive composition, and the use of a modified cyclodextrin (I) as a vehicle for an active substance in an additive composition or in a fuel or lubricant formulation. |
