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.
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
Dyna Glycols supports metal and electroplating chemicals with laboratory samples, current SDS, TDS and COA from the Kandla SEZ manufacturing network. Tell us the intended application, the substrate, the required moles or molecular weight, and any limits on colour, odour, cloud point, hydroxyl value, pH or residual feedstock. A matching catalogue grade of metal and electroplating chemicals in the Metal and Electroplating Chemicals family can then be confirmed, or a custom batch can be planned on the ethoxylation, esterification or related plant.
When you evaluate metal and electroplating chemicals, send the competitor grade if one exists, the bath or emulsion conditions, and the tests your receiving laboratory will run. Pack options for metal and electroplating chemicals typically include drums, IBCs and bulk where the viscosity and melting point of the selected grade allow safe handling from the Metal and Electroplating Chemicals manufacturing line.
A first order of metal and electroplating chemicals is easier when the purchase specification lists identity tests, not only a local trade name. Hydroxyl value, saponification value, acid value, cloud point, pH, water, colour and appearance are the numbers the Kandla QA laboratory can lock. If your QC uses a different solvent or a different cloud-point electrolyte for metal and electroplating chemicals, write that method on the order so the COA speaks the same language.
Custom lots of metal and electroplating chemicals are quoted after the hydrophobe or acid/alcohol pair, the target analytical window, the annual volume and the pack. Pilot batches are available when a catalogue point in the Metal and Electroplating Chemicals range is close but not exact. Once a trial lot is approved, that TDS should be frozen so the tenth delivery of metal and electroplating chemicals matches the first approved drum.
Storage of metal and electroplating chemicals should follow the SDS: keep containers closed, protect hygroscopic grades from moisture, and warm high-melt or high-mole grades until uniform before sampling. FIFO rotation protects colour and odour. If a drum of metal and electroplating chemicals has frozen or separated in transit, homogenise it before charging a batch; do not decant only the liquid layer.
Application advice for metal and electroplating chemicals is given against the process you describe, not as a universal recipe. Share machine type, temperature, pH, electrolytes, fibre or hide type, and any ban on APEO, formaldehyde or food-contact lists. Dyna Glycols can then sample metal and electroplating chemicals alone or as a pair with a sister grade from the same Metal and Electroplating Chemicals family so compatibility is checked in one evaluation.
Documentation for metal and electroplating chemicals is issued after a short verification of the company and the exact grade name. SDS covers handling; TDS covers typical properties; COA covers the shipping lot. If a customer audit needs extra tests on metal and electroplating chemicals (for example residual feedstock, peroxide, formaldehyde or a pharmacopoeia-style identity), list those tests at the enquiry stage so they are built into release rather than added after dispatch.
