Abstract
A solid polymeric body comprising a polymer matrix containing a substantially water-insoluble reagent leachable into a substantially hydrocarbon liquid environment, the matrix being reagent permeative and the body preferably having a softening point substantially above that of the temperature of the liquid fluid environment in which it is to be employed. The body is useful for the introduction of an additive reagent into a substantially liquid hydrocarbon such as crude and refined oils.
