Abstract: A corrosion control system is disclosed including an anionic oxygen inhibitor, a cationic acid inhibitor or dispersant, and a noxious species inhibitor or scavenger for use in a fluid in contact with a metallic surface at low temperature, moderate temperature and especially at high temperature. A drilling fluid, a completion fluid, a production fluid and a geothermal fluid including an effective amount of the corrosion control system is also disclosed as well as methods for making and using same.

Abstract: The invention relates to aqueous detergent concentrates based on nonionic, anionic, amphoteric surfactants, with or without the use of customary auxiliaries and additives, said concentrates comprising as cleaning enhancers at least one sorbitan ester of the general formula (I) where R can be an optionally branched, optionally substituted and/or heteroatom-containing saturated or unsaturated acyl radical having 6 to 22 carbon atoms, R1 and R2 independently of one another can be hydrogen or R, Alk is at least one radical from the group consisting of ethylene-, isopropylene-, and butylene-, and a, b and c independently of one another can be values between 0 to 25, where the sum of a+b+c=0 to 25.

Abstract: The present invention provides an aqueous dispersion for chemical mechanical polishing suitable for polishing of copper, which has a high polishing speed and a low erosion rate with overpolishing. The aqueous dispersion for chemical mechanical polishing of the invention contains a compound having a heterocycle, a surfactant and an oxidizing agent, wherein the compound having a heterocycle and the surfactant are in a weight ratio of 1:10 to 1:0.03. The aqueous dispersion may also contain abrasive particle. The compound having a heterocycle is preferably quinaldic acid, benzotriazole or the like. The surfactant is preferably a sulfonic acid salt such as potassium dodecylbenzenesulfonate or ammonium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, and the oxidizing agent is preferably ammonium persulfate, hydrogen peroxide or the like. The abrasive particle used may be inorganic particle such as colloidal silica, an organic particle such as polymer particle, or an organic/inorganic composite particle comprising a combination thereof.

Abstract: An engine cleaner composition and method for removing carbonaceous deposits from engine fuel-system components such as mechanical and electronic fuel injectors, intake valve seats, valves, combustion cylinders, spark plugs, and oxygen sensors may be used on both gasoline and diesel engines. Preferred compositions comprise a synergistic solution of a heterocyclic ring compound in an azeotrope of acetonitrile and water, together with selected surfactants and aromatics. Preferred compositions of the invention may be placed in an aerosol pressurized unit utilizing a compressed gas, such as nitrogen or nitrous oxide, or compressed liquid gas, such as a hydrocarbon or fluorohydrocarbon. Preferred engine cleaning compositions of the invention are substantially non-ozone depleting, are low in global warming, and have a low order of human toxicity. Preferred compositions have a moderate pH and are essentially compatible with metals and elastomers conventionally used in engine fuel-system components.

Abstract: A non-corrosive photoresist composition containing:(a) 20-70% by weight of an organic polar solvent having a dipole moment of more than 3.5;(b) 70-20% by weight of selected amine compounds;(c) 0.1-10% by weight of (2-benzothiozolylthio)succinic acid.
