单词	tetraethyl lead
释义	tetraethyl lead /ˌtɛtrəˈiːθʌɪl / noun [mass noun] Chemistry A toxic colourless oily liquid made synthetically and used as an anti-knock agent in leaded petrol. Chemical formula: Pb(C2H5)4. For most of the twentieth century, metallic sodium was heated with lead to form an alloy as the first step in the production of tetraethyl lead, an antiknock gasoline additive.... When added to gasoline in minute amounts, tetraethyl lead prevents engine knock and increases the gasoline's octane rating. In fact, tetraethyl lead in unleaded gasoline is replaced with a mixture (with antistroke properties) of benzene and its homologues (despite the fact that benzene does not exceed 1% in unleaded gasoline).
