Abstract
An amine salt is comprised of the reaction of pelargonic acid and dicyclohexylamine. The amine salt, dicyclohexylammonium pelargonate, is useful for inhibiting metal corrosion. A polyphosphate may be used in conjunction with the amine salt to obtain a synergistic corrosion inhibiting effect when a saline environment is encountered by the metal to be protected.
Claims8
A composition comprising:
- a. dicyclohexylammonium pelargonate;
- and,
- b. a polyphosphate;
- said (a) and (b) being present in sufficient amounts to inhibit metal corrosion in a saline environment.
A method of inhibiting corrosion comprising contracting a corrosion susceptible surface with a corrosion inhibiting solution consisting essentially of dicyclohexylammonium pelargonate and an effective amount of a polyphosphate to inhibit corrosion in a saline environment.
In an impact absorbing composition suitable for coating metal articles to protect said articles from impact damage, said composition containing cellulose acetate butyrate as the impact absorbing constituent, the improvement comprising:
- an effective amount of dicyclohexylammonium pelargonate to inhibit the corrosion of said metal article.
