What are Organometallic Compounds?

.

The basic technology involves organometallic chemistry. Organometallic discoveries date back to the 1800’s when an ethylene complex of platinum was prepared, and metal carbonyl, tetracarbony nickel was synthesized; however, the structure of such complexes was difficult to deduce using chemical methods of that day. 

With the 1950’s development of NMR and single crystal x-ray diffraction, methods were then available to solve the structures of these complexes.

With the advent of computerization, a rapid growth in the study of organometallic compounds ensued. By the 1970’s, organometallic compounds were being used as burn rate accelerators for solid fuel rockets.

The Nobel Prize 1973 was awarded to Earnest Fisher and Geoffrey Wilkinson for their contribution to the field. 

 

The development of these complexes for use in combustion engines has always been a scientific goal. The Advanced Fuel Technology compound is the result of space-age continuation of a proven technology in its latest stage.

Valve Recession Protection & Lower Emissions: A primary functional requirement of engines is protection against valve recession. OMC Liquid was evaluated for its effect on valve recession on a dynamometer test. The engine was repeatedly switched between untreated fuel and fuel treated with OMC Liquid. 

The data plot clearly showed that OCM Liquid protects against valve recession and stops or retards existing valve recession. This performance is a unique attribute of this technology. OMC Liquid reduces petrol/diesel combustion chamber deposits and harmful exhaust emission as much as 75% or more.

How Does it Work?

.

The OMC-Liquid compound uses the fuel (Petrol, Diesel) as a carrier to deliver it into the engine combustion chamber where it actually does its work. The ingredients in the OMC- Liquid are used to treat the combustion chamber metal surfaces.

A film is formed on all the surfaces. Technically, the film is thermally derived oxidation. The carboxylic metal creates an oxide residue on the hot surfaces at the time of combustion.

A simple similar example of this is the scorching of a pan when cooking. We are all familiar with how a residue from cooking will form a layer on a pan if the food is overheated. In most cooking cases, the amount of material oxidized is of sufficient quantity to form a heavy film. However, if you scrub the pan many times, the film will get so thin that all you see is discoloration with a film so thin it appears to be part of the pan impregnating the pours of the metal.

The high temperature in the cylinder of an engine combined with the small amount of material that will oxidize or carbon out produces a very thin layer very rapidly. This film coats the walls of the cylinder, the piston face, and the fire deck. Once this film is deposited, it provides several benefits. First, it changes the surface heat absorption characteristics of metal.

Note: The greatest loss in efficiency in an automobile engine is the loss of heat.

.

Heat is energy released by the fuel, and air mixture as it burns producing a heat spike, which creates expansion used to drive the piston down. The cylinder walls and head are water cooled, and the piston is oil cooled. The film inhibits the transfer of radiant heat. This means higher combustion temperature, greater expansion, and more power. The second positive effect of the film is the provision of a surface to more evenly distribute the fuel.

A polished surface tends to cause beading as a polished paint job. The micro film attracts the liquid fuel. More even fuel distribution better shapes the charge yielding more power. The third work of the film is being a catalyst precursor to react with the catalyst component in the OCM- Liquid. With the temperature in the cylinder and the presence of the catalyst, a catalytic reaction occurs to promote better disassociation of chemicals and better burn.

.

The catalytic reaction is also exothermic and produces heat.

.

Changes in the automotive industry in the last 15 years have increased fuel efficiency.

The EPA has mandated rules to lower emissions.

Fuel manufacturers have removed lead and added oxygenates to fuel.

These changes have caused modern vehicles to build harmful deposits that tend to soak up the fuel and cause performance problems.

The OCM-Liquid provides a micro-thin coating that inhibits build-up of harmful deposits.

An added benefit of using the OCM-Liquid lowers emissions.

The catalytic process found in catalytic converters on exhaust systems is started in the firing cylinder, which reduces the formation of nitrous oxides (NO).

The work required by the converter is reduced, and life of the converter is extended.

The film produced on the cylinder walls is a continuous process and is polished by the rings on the piston becoming a more durable surface than the original metal.

Less wear will occur, and extended engine life should be the result.

Since most automobile engines burn fuel at over 99% efficiency, it is impossible to improve the combustion alone. However, by using more heat of combustion, shaping the burn, and using the catalytic process to start the reaction and disassociation of chemicals usually driven by heat, a more efficient burn is produced.

A burn is produced that will provide more expansion in the cylinder, therefore requiring less fuel.

The greatest positive effect is the fact that more heat produced by the combustion is being used.

The extra heat causes greater expansion of gases, increasing power, and overall efficiency of the engine.

Most fuel is burned to use the heat.

In an automobile, the heat is basically wasted.

Past experiments and testing, have proven heat recovery to be the only practical way to improve gas mileage on a modern engine.

The process produced by the OCM-Liquid does use more of the heat generated, and the catalytic process produces additional heat.

.

The use of OrganoMetallic Compounds-Liquid is a practical way to improve mileage, increase power, and extend engine life.
