Product Feature: Sodium Tolyltriazole

Sodium Tolyltriazole, a liquid known commonly as TT-50, is used as a corrosion inhibitor for metals such as silver, copper, zinc, lead, and nickel. TT-50 is also used in anti-rust oil (tallow) products, the gas phase corrosion inhibitor of copper and copper alloy, a lubricant additive, cooling tower systems, and auto antifreeze. One reason for... Read more »

Formulating for Rust Protection in Water-based Metalworking Fluids

Dibasic acid mixtures ranging in length from C10 to C12 (Sebacic Acid, Dodecanedioic Acid (DDDA) and Undecanedioic Acid) can be formulated as an amine salt concentrate for a variety of corrosion inhibition applications.  This mixture creates a strong protective layer of inhibition on a metal surface and is especially effective at ferrous corrosion protection for...
