How Acid Corrosion Inhibitor Works?

 Industrial sectors like Automobiles, Manufacturing, Oilfields, and Processing facilities have huge involvement of metals and the most crucial problem they face is of corrosion. Heavy Industry metals are prone to acid cleaning and pickling for removal of rust, scales, stubborn dirt, stains, tough deposits from their surface. Owing to this, there remains high chances of acidic residues post cleaning, which in due course of time reacts with the metal ions, degrading them completely.

The financial loss caused due to corrosion per year is estimated in the range of thousands of crores and even causing threat to environmental balance.

Acid Corrosion Inhibitor prevents the corrosive reactions of acid when exposed to metal surfaces, maximizing longevity, minimizing the operational cost. It works 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 contains a highly effective blend of surfactants, solvents, and dispersants that prevent corrosion even at high temperatures. These inhibitors do not allow the accumulation of reducing agents to the surface of the metal and forms a thin protective film that covers the surface and molecules of the chemical gets adsorbed on the same, making the surface inert and prevent almost all kind of reactions with corrosive agents.

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,

Chemtex Cooling Tower BioDispersants are chemical compounds that are dosed in cooling tower water to prevent fouling of system

Some systems in chemical industries   are mainly comprised of Cooling water.These cooling water is continuously fed through various circulation pipes. The system comprising of such cooling water in huge amount needs to be cleaned in regular intervals.Otherwise various biological microorganisms such as algae,slimes & bacterial deposits are known to get accumulated.These microorganisms are known to cause MIC(Microbiologically Induced Corrosion) In such a scenario biocides can be fed but they are unable to remove biofilms . Chemtex Cooling Tower Biodispersants are very much able to remove such biofilms.They are also extremely compatible with all types of biocides. Cooling tower biodispersants indirectly does collaborative job with biocides in these two ways. ·          It increases the efficiency of biocides & microbiocides. ·          It reduces the quality of biocides to be dosed in cooling tower water. Chemtex manufactures dispersants & biodispersa
