This research work focuses on the stability and physicochemical characteristics of chromium oxide (Cr2O3) nanoparticles in Mesua ferrea biodiesel (BD20). The Cr2O3 nanoparticles were combined at 60, 80, and 100 mg/L. The dispersant (QPAN80) and surfactant (CTAB) were introduced (at 1:1 ratio) for the Cr2O3 nanoparticles. A mechanical agitator and probe sonicator were used to introduce Cr2O3 nanoparticles into BD20. The stability and physicochemical properties of various nanofuel samples were tested. A spectrophotometer was used to measure stability (absorbance and transmittance) on two separate days, Day 1 and Day 20. Compared to CTAB mixed and base nano fuels, dispersant-based nano fuels were shown to be more stable. Furthermore, the inclusion of Cr2O3 nanoparticles together with dispersion and surfactants improved important fuel properties. In terms of stability and physicochemical properties, BD20 + Cr2O3 80 mg/L + DSP 80 mg/L has shown better outcomes than remaining fuels. The heating value and cetane number were improved for surfactant and dispersant added Cr2O3 nano fuel while the viscosity, relative density, and flashpoint were shown slightly opposed results. The higher absorbance and lower transmittance were perceived as 4.58 and 87.7% while the heating value and cetane number were 41.33 MJ/kg and 60, respectively, for BD20 + Cr2O3 80 mg/L + DSP 80 mg/L.
