Improvement of low temperature properties of jatropha-corn biodiesel blend with the addition of acrylic Co-polymer

Inevitable low temperature properties is one of the major problems in commercialization of pure biodiesel. Increasing the usage of edible oil in biodiesel production creates the fuel versus food controversy. This paper involves the study of cold flow properties of edible and non-edible oil's bi...
