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.



Mechanisms of Acid Corrosion Inhibition

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. It increases   longevity as well as enhances metal durability.

Rust is a persistent challenge faced by industries across the world. Acid corrosion inhibitors offer an effective solution to combat corrosion, control its impact, enhance corrosion resistance, prevent rust and provide surface treatment.

Why does metal get corroded?

Steel and iron are mainly used in many industries for their excellent mechanical characteristics and cheaper cost. Various industry processes use acidic solutions widely for their low cost, some of the critical fields of the application being acid pickling of steel, ore production and oil well acidification, chemical cleaning and processing, etc.  These acidic solutions react with metallic surfaces and cause the deterioration of materials.

Benefits of Using Acid Inhibitors

Acid Inhibitor is a speciality chemical blend formulated to combat such acidic solutions. It contains a highly effective blend of surfactants, solvents, and dispersants that prevent corrosion even at high temperatures. Inhibitors are chemicals that react with a metallic surface or the environment to which this surface is exposed, by adsorbing themselves on the metallic surface, protecting the surface by forming a film.

Benefits of using Acid Inhibitors:

·         Efficiency to inhibit corrosion from the metal surface

·         Effectively remove scale from the corroded metal surface

·         Environment friendly

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...

Midstream – Oil and Gas Chemicals Once petroleum products are recovered in the upstream sector, they move into the midstream sector of the petrochemical industry. What is Midstream? Midstream as the name suggests sits right between the exploration and refining sections of the petrochemical industry. The midstream sector focuses on the transportation and storage of natural gas and crude oils through various oil channels, pipelines, and oil tankers, etc. It is a hub connecting the various stages of the oilfield industry, allowing oil, natural gas, and produced water to travel from the wellhead to its final destination, and in between. This sector involves extensive installation of pipelines, transmission lines, and machinery, which signifies the requirement of long service life and reliability. To meet these standards, efficient chemicals are crucial to make midstream processes as efficient and smooth as possible. Regardless of the mode of transportation, the vast medium infrastructure...
