So alumina, for example, is supposedly added to jet fuel for purposes of being anti-corrosion and also being a surfactant (I.e. it decreases surface tension of the solvent)?

I think I understand what you’re saying but I’m just not sure how this additive would be rationalized. I would think alumina could increase corrosion if anything due to its electrical conductivity nature and potential abrasiveness (albeit not as conductive as silver or copper and also nanoparticles are extremely small).
