The present technology is related to imide containing quaternary ammonium salts having a hydrocarbyl substituent of number average molecular weight less 300, and additive packages having such quaternary ammonium salts and improved stability.

Use of a wax anti-settling agent (WASA), in an automotive fuel composition, for the purpose of improving the acceleration performance of an internal combustion engine into which the fuel composition is or is intended to be introduced or of a vehicle powered by such an engine.

The present disclosure generally relates to a fuel additive composition for use in reducing corrosion and wear in an internal combustion engine or fuel component part thereof. The fuel additive composition includes a polyetheramine salt obtained by either (a) mixing a polyoxyalkylene monoamine and at least one of a dicarboxylic acid or a tricarboxylic acid or (b) mixing a polyoxyalkylene polyamine and at least one of a monocarboxylic acid, the dicarboxylic acid, or the tricarboxylic acid.

Use of a hydrocarbyl-substituted dicarboxylic acid for improving or boosting the separation of water from fuel oils and gasoline fuels which comprise additives with detergent action. A Fuel additive concentrate comprising the said hydrocarbyl-substituted dicarboxylic acid, certain additives with detergent action and optionally other customary additives and solvents or diluents.
