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.

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.

The present invention relates to a low-temperature additive for fuel oils having a sulfur content of less than 50 ppm, comprising i) at least one oil-soluble amide-ammonium salt of a polycarboxylic acid with a mono- and/or dialkylamine (A) and ii) 5-100% by weight, based on the amount of amide-ammonium salt (A), of an oil-soluble amine (B), and iii) 0.1 to 10 parts by weight, based on the amount of amide-ammonium salt (A), of a resin formed from at least one aromatic compound bearing an alkyl radical and an aldehyde and/or ketone (D).
