Rodine 103 aids in enriching strength of pickling acid bath

DESCRIPTION
Industries of various kinds involve the usage of different kinds of metals that
participate either directly in production or as machinery parts. These raw metals or
metal parts have the tendency of forming rust or undergoes scaling due to long
time usage. Acidic treatment is critical in providing protections to these metals
against rusting and scaling. This treatment with acid can be carried out in a variety
of ways to help in the removal of scale and rust but in the process brings about
abrasion of metals as they exhibit corrosive properties. This process not only affects
the metal properties but also tend to cause the loss of base metals post acid
pickling. Therefore, this leads to the addition of acid inhibitors to aid in limiting the
acid attack on base metal, thereby helping in reducing the economic loss for the
industry.
Rodine 103 is an effective acid corrosion inhibitor for phosphoric, sulfuric,
hydrochloric, acetic, oxalic, citric, bisulfate, sulfamic and other organic acids. It
presents itself as a liquid inhibitor that has been designed specifically to be used in
industrial cleaning operations for preventing acid attack on copper, brass, mild steel
and stainless steel. Rodine 103 aids in enriching strength of pickling acid bath and
reduces acid consumption. It exhibits effective fume suppression and its excellent
wetting properties accounts for better cleaning.

Rodine 103 may be added either in diluted form or concentrated form of the
hydrochloric acid but for all other acids Rodine 103 must be added to their diluted
form. For cleaning of equipments, the dilute acid synergized with Rodine 103 is
needed to be circulated throughout and if this circulation cannot be accomplished,
the equipments are filled with inhibited acid solution for a specific duration in order

to remove the scales and deposits. Heating of acids or equipments can be done to
speed up the operation prior to cleaning. The factors that contribute to an efficient
cleaning by Rodine 103 depend on the acid being used, temperature of the cleaning
bath and the type of metal surface of the equipments.
Different types of Acid Corrosion Inhibitors can be found in the ChemEqual
directory, the largest online directory for chemicals supplier all over the world
wherein buyers can have a direct access to all the products and their equivalent
brands along with having the convenience of sending direct enquiry to suppliers.
