Effective Sulfuric Acid Pickling with Rodine 85


In industrial sectors, extensive usage of metals or metal parts, render them susceptible to the formation of rust or tends to get damaged due to scaling. To lend protection to these metals against issues like scaling and rusting, acidic treatment is executed on the surfaces of the metals. Metal parts get dipped in acid baths for removing of rust and scale but this acid treatment is the root for another main concern of the industries. Acidic substances always have the tendency to abrade metals even after the removal of scale or rust.

Acid inhibitors are administered in acid pickling baths for the prevention of loss of base metal after proper pickling. It also helps in extending the life of acid baths. Using of inhibitor in acid solution aids in limiting the acid attack on base metal, therefore from minimum amount of base metal loss savings can be obtained. A potent acid inhibitor helps in alleviating acid attack on the base metal once the scale has been removed, lending protection to the surface and optimizing acid utilization.



Chemtex Speciality Limited is involved in manufacturing a varied range of Acid Inhibitors that are formulated in such a way so as to target the naturally occurring acids and inhibit their acid attack. Rodine 85 is one such acid inhibitor that is involved in the varied range of inhibitors manufactured by Chemtex. Chemtex Speciality Limited formulates the product in such a way so as to render it possible for other industries to carry out effective Sulfuric Acid Pickling with Rodine 85. It presents itself as an acidic concoction of substances that displays pickling properties when compiled together. The product is a non-foaming acid corrosion inhibitor. Rodine 85 has been designed specifically for helping in the prevention of acidic attack of sulfuric acid on various metals such as copper, brass, nickel, and all type of steel. Chemtex Speciality Limited hails as an ISO 9001, OHSAS 18001 and ISO 14001 certified company that deals in the manufacturing, supplying and exporting of speciality chemicals in the likes of Rodine 85 since its inception back in 1970.

H2S – A Silent Ultimatum to Oilfields

H 2 S Scavenger Chemical – Introduction The world has witnessed a substantial increase in E&P of crude oil to meet the need for globalization, leading to drilling of ‘deemed undesirable’ sites, owing to the presence of higher concentration of acidic gases like hydrogen sulphide, carbon dioxide, etc. These hazardous gases require proper measures before disposal or scavenging. Of these, Hydrogen sulphide/ H 2 S is the most threatening one, especially in confined or ill ventilated places. The characteristic rotten egg smell makes H 2 S recognition easy even at lower concentrations. Hydrogen Sulphide is toxic, acidic and extremely corrosive at higher concentrations. Heavier than air, it is found more near base level of the working sites. Then comes its inflammability, which may cause explosive reaction with air molecules. With peroxides, ammonia and other oxidizing chemicals, H 2 S often goes through combustible reactions, ...

Acid Corrosion Inhibitor – Chemtex Speciality Limited

  Acid Corrosion Inhibitors are the most important inhibitor of any operation, preventing the impact of corrosion on exposed metal, tubular, downhole equipment, and surfaces and maximizing longevity, minimizing the operational cost. Corrosion is the chemical interaction with the environment that cause the deterioration of materials and it is unavoidable for all metals. When acids come into contact with metals, they initiate chemical reactions that lead to corrosion. Acid corrosion inhibitors work by forming a protective layer on the metal surface, which acts as a barrier against the corrosive acids. This layer prevents direct contact between the acid and the metal, thus inhibiting the corrosive process.
