This study includes investigations on the determination and development of cold flow properties of biofuels used in aviation. Cold flow properties of biodiesel are weaker according to petroleum sourced fuels, but it is possible to improve these properties. For this, the results were evaluated by adding additives in different ratios to biodiesel obtained from various oils. Acetone, Diethyl Ether, Ethyl Acetoacetate, Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymer, Lubrizol, Olefin Ester Copolymer, Poly Alpha Olefin, Poly Lauryl Methacrylate, Poly Methyl Acrylate, Viscoplex 10-305, Wintron Synergy additives were positive effects on cold flow properties. However, the proportion of additives added to fuels and the raw material of oil also change the results significantly.
