This invention relates to low-sulfur diesel fuels which are useful with diesel engines equipped with exhaust system particulate traps. These fuels contain an effective amount of an organometallic complex to lower the ignition temperature of exhaust particles collected in the trap. The sulfur content of these diesel fuels is no more than about 0.1 % by weight, preferably no more than about 0.05 % by weight. The organometallic complex is soluble or stably dispersible in the diesel fuel and is derived from (i) an organic compound containing at least two functional groups attached to a hydrocarbon linkage, and (ii) a metal reactant capable of forming a complex with the organic compound (i) the …

Why it's free to use
- Filed April 15, 1992. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended April 15, 2012.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by April 15, 2014.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
