Additives
Additives are chemicals that are added to refined products in very small volumes to improve the product properties without adding volume. This is in contrast to blendstocks, which change average product properties but also contribute additional volume.
Additives are typically introduced downstream from the refinery, often as product is loaded onto tank trucks at the terminal rack for final delivery.
