Acid Corrosion Inhibitor effectively prevents acid attack

Acid Corrosion Inhibitor are designed specifically for preventing attack due to acidic components present in the environment, on the metal components without disturbing the acidic effect or in some places even heightening the acid effect in the given application or process.
Before that we need to understand, what corrosion actually is and how acidic corrosion hampers the metal properties?
Corrosion is referred to as the deterioration of materials by chemical interaction with their environment. The term corrosion can sometimes also be applied to the degradation of concrete and wood, plastics, but generally refers to metals. Corrosion is a common phenomenon in the industrial areas and it brings about complicated circumstances in the distribution system which in turn is generally influenced by the metal used, water characteristics etc.
corrosion inhibitor

Commonly, it is a result from water with low pH level where H+ concentration seems to be very high to react with the electrons of the cathodes and thus, the problem of corrosion increases. The consequences of corrosion are many and varied and the effects of these on the safe, reliable and efficient operation of equipment or structures are often more serious than the simple loss of a mass of metal.
Corrosion due to acid refers to an electrochemical process which is driven by the diffusion of oxygen, moisture, and presence of acidic pollutant on the metal surfaces. Acidic Corrosion causes gradual wearing away of material mainly by acidic components. In boilers, attack due to acids can be localized at areas with high stress or can take the form of general thinning. Low pH feed water in the boilers can result into serious attack on the metal surfaces.
Acid Corrosion Inhibitor effectively prevents acid attack. Acid Corrosion Inhibitor is of the following types such as Sulfuric acid inhibitor, Sulfamic acid inhibitor, Hydrochloric acid inhibitor, citric acid inhibitor, etc.

The type and concentration of the Acid Corrosion Inhibitor to be used is obtained by the type and characteristics of metal to be protected and the conditions under which the metal is to be treated. Iron, aluminum, Steel, titanium, etc., all require alloy specific acid inhibitor formulations of corrosion preventative coatings for the best end result.

Hybrid Organic Acid Technology (HOAT) Coolant

Optimal use of machines is directly proportional to its engine performance. What an engine does is it converts the supplied energy into its mechanical form, driving the machine to work. Engines require one-third of total heat that is generated during conversion and the rest of the heat is needed to be evacuated from the combustion chamber which would otherwise lead to engine failure. Earlier, water was preferred as an ideal coolant for quite a period of time but the problem started to arise when the temperature would become extremely high or low, to be precise temperature more than 100 ° C and below 0°C. To get rid of this problem, coolants were formulated. Coolants are categorized chemicals that increases the boiling point of the fluid and decreases the freezing point of the fluid to make it suitable for use in extreme heat and freezing conditions. Coolants are a proportionate mixture of antifreeze and solvent, mainly glycol and water. Ideally utilized as a preventive in...

How RO Antiscalant works?

  Reverse Osmosis technology provides an efficient and reliable method for purifying water for various purposes). It can remove impurities such as salts, minerals, and other contaminants as well as microbial contaminants from the Membrane. Water molecules pass through RO membranes despite dissolved solids and other contaminants being rejected by the membrane. RO membranes are basically thin, dense, and semi-permeable membranes. However, the major significant challenge in Reverse Osmosis System is Scaling. Why does it happen? The formation of scales on the RO (Reverse Osmosis) membrane is primarily caused by the presence of certain dissolved minerals and salts in feed water. Scale refers to the accumulation of mineral deposits, such as calcium carbonate, calcium sulphate, and silica which can severely impact the efficiency and the lifespan of the RO membrane. RO Membrane scaling may lead to cause ·          Excessive Energy Consumption...

Excellent Efficiency Flocculation with Polyelectrolyte

Polyelectrolytes are regarded as polymer chains with an electrolyte group on every repeat unit. When dissolved in a polar solvent, these polymers are charged due to dissociation of small counter ions that leave behind a charged macro ion. Polyelectrolytes include biologically important molecules such as polypeptides and DNA. These are referred to as polymers that are generally used for water purification. These are highly noted for their beneficiary nature of handling problems of slow settling of flocs in water at low temperature, treating soft colored water where they increase toughness of the flocs and enhance its settlement ability. Polyelectrolytes are formulated in a way so as to be used as coagulants and flocculants as well as a sludge dewatering agent in the waste water treatment plants. P olyelectrolyte , thereby, plays an indispensable part in the sludge conditioner formulation. Generally flocculation occurs owing to charges present on the particles. Generally, Pol...
