Abstract
A polymer is dissolved in a liquid hydrocarbon fuel which has a flash point of at least 90.degree. F and is of a type suitable for gas turbine aircraft engines in order to reduce the tendency of the fuel to particulate dissemination when the fuel is subjected to shock. The polymer has a viscosity average molecular weight greater than 10.sup.6 or an intrinsic viscosity greater than 2.5 dls./gm. and the amount of polymer is sufficient that there is molecular overlap of polymer molecules in the liquid.
