Abstract

Organic kerosene was produced using cassava, maize and Akintola leaves in a liquid mixture. The specific gravity, viscosity and Boiling point were determined using ASTM (D 4052, D 445 and D 86), respectively. The specific gravity ranged from 1.003 to 1.005 compared to the standard value of 0.78 – 0.81, viscosity range from 3.535 to 3.585 compared with standard value of 2.16 and boiling point of 101 – 1020 C compared to standard value of 150 – 2900 C.
