The listed grades on this page are corrosion-inhibitor bases for water-soluble and oil-soluble metal-working, treating and oilfield-adjacent packs: tallow amine and tallow diamine ethoxylates, and a 70% active amido-imidazoline (Product CND). Dyna Glycols manufactures them to agreed EO moles, active content and pH. They are film-forming inhibitor intermediates, not finished plating baths or conversion coatings.
What metal and electroplating chemicals are
The listed grades on this page are corrosion-inhibitor bases for water-soluble and oil-soluble metal-working, treating and oilfield-adjacent packs: tallow amine and tallow diamine ethoxylates, and a 70% active amido-imidazoline (Product CND). Dyna Glycols manufactures them to agreed EO moles, active content and pH. They are film-forming inhibitor intermediates, not finished plating baths or conversion coatings.
Related wetting, emulsifying and phosphating surfactants sit on the phosphate ester, ethoxylate and sulphate pages. Do not assume this page is a complete electroplating-chemical catalogue. Name the duty: corrosion inhibition, degreasing, phosphating or a plating additive.
How Dyna Glycols manufactures metal and electroplating chemicals
Tallow amine 10 EO and tallow diamine 10 EO are run on the fatty-amine ethoxylation plant as 100% active bases with detergent and film-forming character. They can be formulated into water-soluble or oil-soluble inhibitor packs. Product CND is a 70% active amido-imidazoline finished for drilling, production, transport and crude refining inhibitor concentrates. It can be converted with inorganic or organic acids to water-soluble salts for corrosion prevention, emulsifying, wetting or scale-prevention packs.
Custom amine moles and imidazoline actives are quoted after the existing TDS tests and annual volume.
Typical grades in this range
The catalogue starting points for this industry page are the inhibitor bases below.
- Tallow diamine 10 EO and tallow amine 10 EO (100% active corrosion-inhibitor bases)
- Product CND: 70% active amido-imidazoline for oilfield and refining inhibitor concentrates
- Related chemistry (specify on the matching page): phosphate esters, fatty amine ethoxylates, sulphates
Where metal and electroplating chemicals are used
Metal-working fluids, pickling rinses, pipeline treating and crude systems use amine ethoxylates as film-forming inhibitor bases with detergency. Imidazoline concentrates are typical in oilfield production and refining inhibitor formulas after acid conversion to a water-soluble salt.
If the need is a plating brightener, a chromate replacement or a conversion coating, that is outside this listed set. Send the bath chemistry so the laboratory can say whether a phosphate ester or another catalogue surfactant is relevant, rather than stretching these inhibitor bases.
How to specify metal and electroplating chemicals
Send water-soluble vs oil-soluble pack, required EO moles or % active, acid used if converting the imidazoline, temperature, pH and whether H2S, CO2 or brine is present. Attach the current inhibitor TDS if replacing a competitor amine or imidazoline.
State whether the grade will be used neat as a base or further blended. Neutralisation of CND belongs on the enquiry so residual acid and pH are in window.
Quality, documents and supply
Lots are released against appearance, active or moles, pH and the tests on the TDS. SDS and COA follow verification. Corrosion performance must be checked in the customer brine or oil, not only in distilled water.
Amine ethoxylates and imidazolines are alkaline and can irritate. Follow the SDS. Keep containers closed.
Practical notes on metal and electroplating chemicals
Tallow amine 10 EO is not interchangeable with a fatty alcohol ethoxylate of similar moles. The nitrogen head is the inhibitor. Order by chemistry.
Related pages: fatty amine ethoxylates, phosphate esters, refinery and oilfield chemicals. Sample the amine and the imidazoline separately if the pack uses both. Articles on electroplating auxiliaries, metalworking fluid additives and film-forming corrosion inhibitors sit in the blog index.
Acid salts of imidazoline change solubility. Freeze the acid (acetic, hydrochloric or other) once a trial lot is approved.
Do not dose these bases as plating brighteners. They are corrosion-inhibitor intermediates.
Film persistency in sour brine is a customer test. Dyna Glycols supplies the base against identity tests; the formulated inhibitor performance is the blender responsibility.
English is the source language for active-content and mole claims.
Ordering and evaluating metal and electroplating chemicals
Send the application, the analytical window and the pack size when you request a laboratory sample of metal and electroplating chemicals. SDS, TDS and COA follow a short company check. Handle and store the grade as the SDS describes.
