Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the treatment of aqueous systems and, more particularly, to reducing or eliminating corrosion in aqueous systems.
  • inorganic salts such as nitrites and chromates, inorganic mono and polyphosphates, certain water soluble polymers including naturally occurring materials such as lignins and starches as well as synthetic materials such as polyacrylates, as well as organic phosphonates.
  • zinc salts for this purpose. Indeed, it is known to use zinc salts in combination with organic type corrosion inhibitors, principally organic phosphonates and polyacrylates.
  • a method of treating an aqueous system which comprises adding thereto a zinc salt, a chelant and either a product containing at least one phosphorus-containing acid group and at least one carboxylic acid group or an acrylic, vinyl or allyl carboxylic acid polymer.
  • any water soluble zinc salt can be used in the present invention.
  • Typical salts which can be used include zinc sulphate, zinc chloride, zinc nitrate and zinc acetate, zinc sulphate monohydrate and zinc chloride being particularly preferred.
  • the third component used in the present invention will, in general, be a phosphonate.
  • the materials used contain at least two acid groups, one of which is a phosphonate group and the other is a carboxylic acid group, at least the two said acid groups being attached to carbon atoms.
  • Preferred phosphonates include hydroxy phosphonoacetic acid and 2-phosphono butane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid, the latter being particularly preferred.
  • these preferred phosphonates possess the general formula wherein R is hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl having up to 4 carbon atoms; phenyl; cycloalkyl having 3 to 6 carbon atoms; benzyl; phenethyl or wherein R' is hydrogen, alkyl having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or carboxyl, R" is hydrogen or methyl and R''' is carboxyl or phosphonate.
  • polymeric material and, in particular, carboxylic acid polymers which contain a chain phosphorus atom which forms part of an acid group.
  • the molecular weight of such polymers is relatively low, generally below 5,000, the preferred molecular weight being from 250 to 750, especially about 500.
  • a particularly suitable polymer is that sold as "Belclene 500" by Ciba-Geigy.
  • a synergistic effect although most pronounced when the phosphorus containing materials are used, can also be obtained when a polycarboxylic acid is used, typically one having a molecular weight from 1,000 to 5,000.
  • Such polymers may be derived from acrylic, vinyl or allyl carboxylic monomers, typically acrylic, methacrylic, maleic, fumaric, itaconic, crotonic or cinnamic acid alone or with a suitable comonomer.
  • Such comonomers include acrylamide, (meth)acrylate esters or hydroxy esters e.g.
  • chelants which can be used in the method of the present invention are generally compounds with a nitrogen ligand which are effective chelants for iron. Usually, these chelants will also possess a carboxylic acid group.
  • a preferred group of chelants possesses the formula R3 - - - CR2 where R1 is hydrogen, hydroxyethyl or carboxymethyl, preferably carboxymethyl, R2 is hydrogen, hydroxyphenyl, preferably ortho-hydroxyphenyl, which is optionally methyl or sulphonic acid substituted, or carboxyl, R4 is hydrogen or carboxyl, where R1, R2 and R4 are as defined above and X is -(CH2)2- or - (CH2)3 -.
  • the phenyl groups may be substituted, if desired, preferably by one or more halogen atoms.
  • the chelant is to be used in aqueous systems which possess a high pH and a relatively high temperature it is preferred that at least one of R1, R2 and R3 contains a hydroxyl group.
  • the most preferred chelants possess a nitrogen ligand, a carboxylic acid group and a hydroxyl group.
  • Preferred chelants for use in the present invention include N,N'-di(-2-hydroxybenzyl-)trimethylenediamine-N,­N'-diacetic acid, N,N'ethylene-bis-[2-­(2-hydroxy-4-methyl-phenyl)-glycine], ethylenediamine N,­N'-bis-[2-hydroxyphenylacetic acid] and N,­N-di(2-hydroxy-5-sulphonic acid benzyl)glycine which is especially preferred not only on account of its effectiveness but also on account of its excellent solubility properties which faciliate the formulation of compositions, as well as N,N-di(2-hydroxyethyl) glycine, N-hydroxyethyl N,N' ,N'-ethylenediamine triacetic acid and 2-hydroxyethyl iminodiacetic acid.
  • Ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid and diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid can also be mentioned although they are less preferred since they do not contain
  • the present invention also provides a composition suitable for addition to an aqueous system which comprises a water soluble zinc salt, a product containing at least one phosphorus containing acid group and at least one carboxylic acid group or an acrylic, vinyl or allyl carboxylic acid polymer, and a chelant. In such a situation, it may be desirable to add further quantities of chelant as required.
  • the composition will be an aqueous formulation containing, generally, 1% to 2% by weight of zinc salt (as zinc), 4% to 10% by weight of the phophorus containing material or polymer and 1% to 25% by weight, especially about 5% by weight, of the chelant.
  • zinc salt as zinc
  • 4% to 10% by weight of the phophorus containing material or polymer 1% to 25% by weight, especially about 5% by weight, of the chelant.
  • a further surprising feature of the present invention is that the presence of the combination of chelant and phosphorus containing compound and/or acrylic vinyl or allyl carboxylic acid polymer enables one to reduce the amount of zinc salt. It is usual in the art to employ amounts of the order of 2 to 5ppm zinc. However, with ever increasing restrictions on concentrations of zinc in discharges there is a constant demand to reduce the amounts of zinc used. It has been found that by using the additional ingredients it is possible to reduce the amount of zinc to, say, about 1ppm for comparable effectiveness. In such circumstances it is preferred to employ about 4ppm of the phosphorus compound and about 2.5 to 5ppm of chelant. If, on the other hand, one uses 2.5ppm of zinc then it is preferred to use about 10ppm of phosphorus compound and about 5ppm of chelant.
  • the combination of the present invention together with other ingredients including phosphates, biocides, yellow metal corrosion inhibitors such as benzotriazole and tolyltriazole as well as other polymers which act as dispersants such as polyacrylic acid, polymaleic acid and copolymers of maleic acid with styrene sulphonic acid.
  • dispersants especially a copolymer of methacrylic acid and acrylamide is particularly advantageous, especially one in which the mole ratio is about 1:3, and further enhances the corrosion protection given by the three component system.
  • the molecular weight of the homopolymers will be 1,000 to 10,000 while that of the copolymers will be 1,000 to 50,000.
  • test were carried out on a laboratory scale recirculating rig consisting of a plastic vessel holding 8 litres of water and connected by tubing to a circulating pump the water passing from the pump through a glass rack holding the metal test coupons ('line') and returning to the plastic vessel. Any evaporation was made up by the addition of de-ionised water. Metal test coupons were also suspended in the plastic vessel ('Pond'). The corrosion rate was calculated from the weight of metal lost during test. The water temperature was maintained by means of a heater/thermostat arrangement.
  • Examples 15 - 34 were carried out at 54°C.
  • test conditions were as follows: System Water : 160ppm Calcium hardness 50ppm Magnesium hardness 200ppm 'M' Alkalinity Water Temperature (Pond) : 50°C pH : 8.8 Flow Rate through heat exchanger : 0.3 ft/sec Flow Rate through coupon chamber : 1.5 ft/sec Heat flux on exchanger : 75 kj/m ⁇ 2/sec ⁇ 1 Duration of test : 14 days Initial passivation : 3 x normal maintenance dose, allowed to decay from start of test.
  • Example 42 in relation to Example 43 shows the effect of using Chelant 2 in enabling one to reduce the concentration of zinc/phosphate.
