Product catalog summary
Description
Nycosol 13 is a fuel icing inhibitor composed of diethylene glycol methyl ether (DIEGME) with an antioxidant, designed to prevent ice crystal formation in jet fuel systems at low temperatures. It is a high flash point alternative to ethylene glycol methyl ether (EGME).
Applications
Nycosol 13 is used in jet fuels to ensure smooth operation of aircraft fuel systems by preventing ice formation. It is compatible with hydrocarbon fuels like TS-1 (RT) and Jet A-1, and can replace Gidkost I and Gidkost I-M as an anti-water-crystallization agent. The recommended treatment rate is 0.07 to 0.15% in fuel.
Specifications and Standards
Nycosol 13 meets the standards of MIL-DTL-85470B, DEF STAN 68-252, and is DCSEA 745/B approved. It is characterized by a clear, yellow appearance, specific gravity of 1.023 kg/dm3, and a flash point of 91°C. The product contains over 99% DIEGME, with minimal water and acid content, and complies with various ASTM and MIL test methods.

NYCOSOL 13-1

NYCONYCOSOL13 TECHNICAL DATA SHEET DESCRIPTION Nycosol 13 is made of diethylene glycol methyl ether (DIEGME), also called methyldiglycol, and contains the antioxidant mandatory for MIL-DTL-85470 APPLICATIONS Nycosol 13 is intended to be added to jet fuel to prevent formation of ice crystals that may interfere with the operation of the aircraft fuel system at low temperature (filters, pumps & valves). It has a high flash point and has replaced ethylene glycol methyl ether (EGME) as fuel icing inhibitor. It meets the requirements of MIL-DTL-85740B and DEF STAN 68-252, and is DCSEA 745/B approved. The treatment rate is from 0.07 to 0.15% in fuel. Nycosol 13 can be used in replacement of Gidkost I and Gidkost I-M as anti-water-cristallisation agent in hydrocarbon fuels such as TS-1 (RT) of Russia and Jet A-1 (USA). The values above are typical values. They do not constitute any contractual commitment. Sales specifications are available on request. The present technical data sheet replaces all the previous editions.
