In this work, the physicochemical properties of fuel blends, the ternary system biodiesel-diesel–ethanol (BDE), were studied with the purpose to detect and correlate the properties of excess based on the intermolecular interactions in miscible blends. These were obtained by the action of a surfactant agent. The mechanism of polarization is determined by type of charge existing in ternary blends, by applying an alternating electric current. The effect of the performance of biodiesel as a surfactant agent was monitored as a function to the miscibility of the ternary system biodiesel-diesel-ethanol, defined by a minimum period of eighty days of stability. The field of miscibility was obtained by constructing of a ternary diagram consisting of 36 samples. The density of the ternary blends was determined by a pycnometer. The density range of the samples is 0.8333 to 0.8960 g/ml. This value is consistent with the limit reported in the literature pertaining to diesel. The methods used for the characterization of intermolecular interactions are given by vibrational infrared region spectroscopy (FTIR ), which identified the position, displacement, area variation of the band and impedance spectroscopy, which determined the electrical parameters, relaxation frequency (f0), resistance (R), resistivity (ρ'), capacitance (C), permittivity () besides to identify the presence of only one mechanism of polarization, orientational polarization. This is associated with the mobility of charge density which ended due to the absence of free electrons and ionized species in the fuel blends. Phenomena of excess properties were found for the following properties: density (ρE), volume (VE), electrical resistivity (ρ'E), electrical capacitance (CE) and relaxation frequency (f0E). For most fuel blends, all parameters excess property resulted in negative values. This fact, among others, concluded the existence of intermolecular interaction in the fuel system ...
