Abstract

A fuel-reforming sheet which is adapted to be placed in the air flow channel of a heat engine to ionize the oxygen molecules in order to achieve complete combustion of the oxygen mixed with a fuel is constructed from a flexible backing, a double-sided adhesive sheet having front and back adhesive surfaces, and a powdered mixture which includes a ceramic powder, a radioactive rare-earth mineral powder and a binder, in which the rear adhesive surface of the double-sided adhesive sheet is bonded to the flexible backing and the powdered mixture is bonded to the front adhesive surface of the double-sided adhesive sheet.
