The present invention relates to a nitrogen-containing terpolymer biodiesel solidification point depressant, and a preparation method and application thereof. The preparation method includes the following steps: 1) respectively preparing methylacrylic acid high carbon ester and N-hexadecyl methacrylamide; 2) adding the methylacrylic acid high carbon ester, the N-hexadecyl methacrylamide, and vinyl acetate to a solvent, and adding an initiator for polymerization to yield a methylacrylic acid high carbon ester-N-hexadecyl methacrylamide-vinyl acetate terpolymer, i.e., a nitrogen-containing terpolymer biodiesel solidification point depressant. Compared with the prior art, the nitrogen-containing terpolymer biodiesel solidification point depressant of the present invention solves the problem of poor compatibility of single methylacrylic acid depressants, N-hexadecyl methacrylamide and vinyl acetate are introduced to extend the composition of the depressant and improve a solidification point depression effect, the preparation process of the depressant is simple, and the experimental operation is convenient.

A winterized paraffin inhibitor, which is capable of being used for preventing the deposition of paraffins in hydrocarbon streams and capable of withstanding freezing or crystallization at freezing or sub-freezing temperatures, may be formed by adding an oxyalkylated branched aliphatic compound having 12 or more carbons to a high molecular weight aliphatic polymer paraffin inhibitor, the oxyalkylated branched aliphatic compound having 12 or more carbons being produced by the oxyalkylation of the branched aliphatic compound having 12 or more carbon atoms in which the branched aliphatic compound having 12 or more carbon atoms is grafted with a polyether via a ring-opening reaction, wherein the polyether is a polymer of ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, butylene oxide, and combinations thereof.

This disclosure relates to winterized pour point depressant compositions for petroleum fluids. Such compositions exhibit stability and are flowable at temperatures down to as low as −47° C., without the need for further dilution.

Reversion problems with heavy oils, such as heavy fuel oils, are mitigated by introducing an effective amount of an additive that contains both a phase change material and a pour point depressant, even synergistically mitigated.
