Abstract
Dipole Magnetization Effect to Kerosene Characteristics. Investigation of kerosene characteristics has been done byex-situ dipole magnetization. The results show that magnetization technique can be able to influence kerosenecharacteristics. Polarity and viscosity of the kerosene are observed by measuring refractive index and viscosity. An hourof 4330 Gauss flux magnetic will increase refractive index from 1.447 to 1.449 and decrease the viscosity from 1.278 to1.256. Those changing support de-clustering occurrence and polarity increment of kerosene molecule. Gaschromatography and infrared result show that those changing do not alter kerosene structure and composition
