  text: "The decarbonization of the energy supply is one of the biggest and most important
    challenges of the 21st century. This paper contributes to the solution of the
    energy crisis by investigating the stability of alcohols as e-fuels. The focus
    is on the investigation of the aging mechanism of the linear alcohols 1-hexanol
    and 1-octanol compared to the iso-alcohol 2-hexanol. It is analysed in detail
    how the time-dependent aging varies depending on the chain length and the position
    of the hydroxy-group, both in the liquid and in the gas phase. It is shown that
    a variety of aging products such as aldehydes, acids, short-chain alcohols and
    esters are formed during the aging of the n-alcohols by oxidation, decarboxylation,
    oxidative C-C bond cleavage and esterification. In contrast, the decomposition
    of the iso-alcohol is significantly lower. The results show that the total acid
    number is significantly higher for aged n-alcohols than for the aged iso-alcohos,
    while the kinematic viscosity decreases for all alcohols during aging. Carbon
    mass balancing shows that after accelerated aging for 120 hours, around 80% of
    the iso-alcohol is still present, compared to only around 57-63% for the n-alcohols.
    In addition, significantly fewer acids are formed with the iso-alcohol. In this
    study, iso-alcohols have a higher stability against thermo-oxidative aging compared
    to n-alcohols, showing their potential as e-fuels. Furthermore, the chain length
    of the alcohols has also an influence on aging, as more different aging products
    can be formed with increasing chain length.\r\n\r\nThis paper contributes to the
    solution of the energy crisis by investigating the stability of alcohols as e-fuels.
    The focus is on the investigation of the aging mechanism of 1-hexanol and 1-octanol
    compared to the 2-hexanol."
