Popis: Experimental results confirm that resins isolated from Boscan crude oil have a stabilizing effect on asphaltenes in Hamaca crude oil and in Boscan crude oil. A simple experimental technique, referred to as the filter drop spreading method, was used to detect the onset of flocculation quite accurately for crude oil mixtures and for mixtures of crude oils plus additives.
