Abstract
Bioethanol added into gasolines significantly changes the physical and chemical properties of the resulting fuels and can have a considerable influence on their overall thermo-oxidative stability. During fuel oxidation, different oxidation products such as water, acidic substances, and peroxides are formed and these can have corrosive effects on metallic construction materials of the storage and transportation equipment, engines, and fuel lines of automobiles, etc. In this work, we tested the laboratory prepared ethanol
