Corrosion is an event of gradual degradation of materials, in particular metals and alloys, that occurs due to chemical reactions with the environment. The most common is metal oxidation. Exposure of material to air, water or specific aggressive chemical environment is the origin of corrosion. 

Material’s corrosion resistance can be increased reducing the activity of exposed surfaces by chemical passivation or by inhibition and/or neutralization of corrosive agent species present in the environment.

Corrosion inhibitors are largely used to prevent and control corrosion phenomena in the following treatment plants:

•Condensate recovery system

•Cooling towers circuit

•Boilers feed water

•Heat exchangers

•Water based Drilling fluids for Oil fields

•Thermal desalination

•Multi Stage Flash desalination (MSF)

•Water injection for Oil fields
