Abstract
The dissemination of gas turbine aviation fuels under shock conditions, particularly and the accompanying fire hazard are reduced by dissolving in the fuel a segmented copolymer of ethylene and a higher olefine. The fuel may be gelled by the dissolved copolymer or if the molecular weight is greater than 10.sup.6 and the concentration of the polymer is such that its molecules overlap in the fuel, the fuel may be a liquid, but with a reduced tendency to form mist particles under shock conditions.
