Abstract
An aqueous non-toxic biorational or environmentally safe composition to reduce or inhibit corrosion, rust and scale on metal surfaces comprising effective amounts of sorbic acid, salts of sorbic acid and/or derivatives thereof and a variety of hydrocarbons, esters, acids, alcohols and/or saponified fatty acids or combinations thereof derived from beeswax, vegetable waxes and/or derivatives thereof.
Claims17
An aqueous non-toxic environmentally safe composition to reduce or inhibit corrosion, rust and scale on metal surfaces comprising effective amounts of sorbic acid, salts of sorbic acid and/or derivatives thereof and at least one wax selected from the group consisting of hydrocarbons, esters, acids, alcohols and/or saponified fatty acids and combinations thereof, wherein said effective amounts include from about 0.004 percent beeswax to about 0.40 percent beeswax, from about 0.30 percent potassium sorbate to about 3.50 percent potassium sorbate with the balance purified water, all by weight.
An aqueous non-toxic environmentally safe composition to reduce or inhibit corrosion, rust and scale on metal surfaces as a flash rust inhibitor comprising effective amounts of sorbic acid, salts of sorbic acid and/or derivatives thereof and at least one wax selected from the group consisting of hydrocarbons, esters, acids, alcohols and/or saponified fatty acids and combinations thereof, wherein said effective amounts include from about 0.004 percent beeswax to about 0.01 percent beeswax, from about 0.30 per cent potassium sorbate to about 0.35 percent potassium sorbate, with the balance purified water, all by weight.
An aqueous non-toxic environmentally safe composition to reduce or inhibit corrosion, rust and scale on metal surfaces as a bath or dip comprising effective amounts of sorbic acid, salts of sorbic acid and/or derivatives thereof and at least one wax selected from the group consisting of hydrocarbons, esters, acids, alcohols and/or saponified fatty acids and combinations thereof, wherein said effective amounts includes from about 0.02 percent beeswax to about 0.1 percent beeswax, from about 2.50 percent potassium sorbate to about 3.50 percent potassium sorbate, with the balance purified water, all by weight, having a pH of about 8.0 to about 9.0 and conductivity of from about 14.20 ms/cm to about 16.20 ms/cm.
The aqueous non-toxic environmentally safe composition to reduce or inhibit corrosion, rust and scale on metal surfaces as a paint preservative or additive comprising effective amounts of sorbic acid, salts or sorbic acid and/or derivatives thereof and at least one wax selected from the group consisting of hydrocarbons, esters, acids, alcohols and/or saponified fatty acids and combinations thereof, wherein said effective amounts includes from about 0.30 percent beeswax to about 0.40 percent beeswax and from about 17.00 percent potassium sorbate to about 25.00 percent potassium sorbate, with the balance purified water, all by weight having a pH of about 7.0 to about 10.0 and a conductivity of from about 60 ms/cm to about 80 ms/cm.
