20100270493 | HOT TEST FLUID CONTAINING VAPOR PHASE INHIBITION PROTECTION FOR FERROUS AS WELL AS ALUMINUM ALLOYS - The technology of this invention relates to a solution that provides protection against forms of corrosion. Such solutions are intended for use in applications where cooling system parts are hot tested or the engine is run-in prior to it being stored and/or assembled in the final vehicle or engine configuration. The invention covers a concentrate as well as a dilute solution made from the concentrate. The synergistic combination of inorganic ammonium derivatives with monocarboxylic or dicarboxylic acids has proven to dramatically increase the protection time, thus enabling storage for a longer period when the engine parts are shipped or stored prior to assembling. When silicate is added to the above formulation, excellent protection from liquid and vapor corrosion is provided on ferrous liner alloys as well as on aluminum alloys. Aluminum alloys are used in engine heads. The use of inorganic ammonium derivatives in combination with monocarboxylate or dicarboxylic acids and silicate has proven to dramatically enhance the protection time and enable the storage for a longer period when different engine parts are shipped or stored prior to assembling. The use of the described invention shows a pre-conditioning of the metal surface and provides protection even if afterwards the liquid is almost completely removed. Other traditional or organic inhibitors like triazole, nitrate, nitrite, borate, molybdate, phosphate can optionally be added. A freezing point depressant can be added as well, providing, in addition to freezing protection, an increased vapor phase protection level. | 10-28-2010 |
