“…They work synergistically and modify fuels' properties by increasing their degradation and, consequently, corrosivity 2 . The continuous increase in corrosivity is mainly caused by the formation of many acids: formic, acetic, propionic and caproic acids, among other 3 . Another relevant subject consists of the fact that biodiesel is thirty times more hygroscopic than mineral diesel and it means that biodiesel has greater natural tendency to absorb humidity.…”

“…Thus, biodiesel degradation speeds up 4,6,7 . Due to biodiesel low hydrolytic and oxidative stability, its storage is a critical factor because it may change the quality of the product and promote a corrosion that would be practically null with the use of petroleum diesel [1][2][3]5 . Such negative results lead to vulnerability and generate problems that may compromise the use of biodiesel as a viable alternative for the existing fuel matrix found in the market.…”

“…Studies on the effect of light, temperatures, and selected metals on corrosiveness and degradation of biodiesel are reported in [11]. The corrosiveness studies were carried out for copper and brass using the immersion method according to the standards ASTM G31 and ASTM G1.…”

“…The oxidative degradation of biodiesel occurs primarily as a result of contact with metal, light, air and/or heat during its storage and distribution. Metal and light are pro-oxidants that affect the oxidation rate (Aquino et al, 2012), but contact with air and elevated temperature are the most deleterious parameters related to biodiesel degradation (Godoy et al, 2013). It is recognized that, in general, the rate of a chemical reaction approximately doubles for every 10 °C increase (Stoker, 2010).…”
