  • Method for inhibiting metal corrosion during acid cleaning or pickling
    Patent number: 11718918
    Abstract: A corrosion inhibitor composition, which includes i) an aqueous alcohol base fluid, ii) a mixture of at least three polysaccharides selected from carboxymethyl cellulose, gum arabic, pectin, a salt of alginic acid, chitosan, dextran, hydroxyethyl cellulose, and soluble starch, with each polysaccharide that is present in the mixture being present in an amount of 0.05 to 0.5 wt. %, based on a total weight of the corrosion inhibitor composition, iii) silver nanoparticles, and iv) a pineapple leaves extract. A method of inhibiting corrosion of metal during acid cleaning/pickling whereby the metal is treated with an acidic treatment fluid containing an acid and the corrosion inhibitor composition.

  • Corrosion inhibitor composition and methods of inhibiting corrosion
    Patent number: 11180856
    Abstract: A corrosion inhibitor composition, which includes (i) a date palm leaves extract, (ii) a benzimidazole compound having at least one a carbamate group, (iii) a pyridine compound, (iv) a thiourea compound, (v) a cinnamaldehyde compound, (vi) a metal iodide, (vii) urotropin, and (viii) a base fluid containing an alcohol and an organic acid. A method of inhibiting corrosion of metal during acid cleaning is also disclosed, whereby the metal is treated with an acidic treatment fluid containing 1 to 5 wt. % of an acid, based on a total weight of the acidic treatment fluid, and 0.1 to 5 vol. % of the corrosion inhibitor composition, based on a total volume of the acidic treatment fluid.
