Ph-Responsive Copolymers As Silica Scale Inhibitors

Product Number: 51322-17703-SG

Silicon is an important element of our Planet’s crust, which is transferred into water streams through dissolution.1 Hence, it is usually found as water-soluble silicate or colloidal silica in natural surface waters (sea, rivers, lakes), or underground waters. When such water is used for industrial purposes (eg. industrial cooling), silicate can enter the operating system and can pose a threat to its proper operation. The main reason is the solubility of amorphous silica, a product of the silicate polycondensation process.

Pipings’ Kryptonite: Understanding Repair Options for Piping with Section Loss

Product Number: 41216-973-SG

Author: David A. Hunter

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

The sheer volume of piping systems, both insulated and non-insulated, is daunting. Companies, in order to deal with limited inspection resources, have resorted to risk-based strategies in order to prioritize inspection of such systems. By the time surfaces and systems are inspected, they often exhibit wall loss, or pitting corrosion on surfaces. Piping is only as strong as the wall thickness of the original design. When corrosion reduces wall thickness to a minimum required thickness for the given pressure, actions must be taken.

Pitting Corrosion Resistance Of UNS S32202 Welds: Bulk Microstructure Vs Surface Behaviour

Duplex stainless steels (DSS) are an attractive alternative to conventional austenitic 300 series. They are becoming more and more present in industrial applications requiring high mechanical properties combined with good corrosion resistance. UNS S32202 is a lean duplex grade designed to guarantee corrosion resistance superior to that of 304L in most environments and even equivalent to 316L in NaCl environment at room temperature. Its yield strength is twice as high as 304L and 316L allowing thickness and weight reduction in structural components. With low nickel content (2.5%) and no molybdenum addition, the impact of raw material price fluctuation is reduced. It makes UNS S32202 suitable for a high number of applications including public transportation, building & construction, watersystems, liquid storage and pulp&paper industry.

Polyasparatics for Corrosion Protection Applications

Product Number: 41205-208-SG

Author: Edward P. Squiller, Kurt E. Best

Publication Date: 2005

$20.00

This paper describes the polyaspartics coating technology and how it can be used to formulate relatively fast drying 2-coat corrosion resistant paints for use on steel substrates. The polyaspartics coating technology offers several advantages over the conventional two- and three-coat paints, including faster re-coat windows leading to an overall faster coating application process and lower costs.

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Fouling of equipment surface by unwanted materials is a well-documented problem in
industrial water systems.1 The foulants are generally classified into four categories: a)
mineral scales i.e., calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate, calcium phosphate, magnesium
hydroxide, etc., b) corrosion products i.e., iron oxide, zinc oxide, copper oxide, etc., c)
microbiological mass i.e., bacteria, algae, fungi, and other organisms, and d) deposits
i.e., clay, silt, calcium-inhibitor salts, corrosion products, etc.

Polymeric Silica Scale Inhibitors: Computational Predictions And Experimental Studies On Inhibitor Efficiencies

Product Number: 51322-17706-SG

Author: Efstratios Korhatzis, Konstantinos Xanthopoulos, Konstantinos D. Demadis

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Inorganic scaling and fouling are undesirable processes occurring in process waters that are supersaturated with respect to scaling cations and anions. Mineral scaling is the result of nucleation and crystal growth phenomena that follow predictable pathways. This is because the mineral scales are composed of well-defined crystalline salts, the most common being calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate dehydrate (gypsum), metal sulfides, depending on the particular water chemistry and operational parameters (eg. temperature).
