Dodecenylsuccinic acid hemiester (class T747) CMET T747A

Description

What is Dodecenylsuccinic Acid Hemiester CMET T747A?

Dodecenylsuccinic Acid Hemiester CMET T747A is a corrosion inhibitor belonging to the class of organic, polar compounds derived from alkenyl succinic acid chemistry. Functionally, it is a half-ester, a molecular structure that combines a polar, metal-adherent head group with a long-chain, oil-soluble hydrocarbon tail (dodecenyl group). Its primary mechanism of action is based on the adsorption of its polar end onto metal surfaces, thereby establishing a hydrophobic barrier. It is widely utilized in industrial lubricant and protective oil formulations as a specialized additive to mitigate rust formation and enhance certain performance properties.

Features of Dodecenylsuccinic Acid Hemiester CMET T747A:

Corrosion Inhibition: The product contributes to the prevention of rust on ferrous metal surfaces, particularly in environments with potential water contamination or humidity.

Balanced Acidity: It is characterized by a low acid number, which supports formulation stability and compatibility with system metals, making it a candidate for applications sensitive to acidic components.

Demulsification Performance: It aids in the separation of water from oil, a property important for maintaining lubricant performance and clarity in systems prone to water ingress.

Good Physical Properties: It demonstrates favorable solubility in common petroleum-based and synthetic lubricant base stocks, along with suitable fluidity for ease of handling and blending.

Chemical Stability: The compound is generally stable under typical storage and blending conditions within lubricant manufacturing processes.

Functions of Dodecenylsuccinic Acid Hemiester CMET T747A:

Surface Activity and Film Formation: The polar moiety of the molecule adsorbs onto metal substrates, orienting the hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain outward. This process helps create a protective, water-repellent monolayer that acts as a physical barrier against corrosive agents like water and oxygen.

Water Displacement and Protection: The adsorbed film can help displace water from metal surfaces, a function known as "water shedding," which is critical for protecting equipment during shutdowns or in humid conditions.

Enhancement of Fluid Performance: By reducing the tendency of water to emulsify in the oil, it supports the maintenance of the lubricant's key properties, such as lubricity and oxidation stability, in wet operating environments.

Synergistic Formulation Component: It is often used in combination with other additives (e.g., antioxidants, anti-wear agents) to build a comprehensive performance profile in finished lubricants, contributing specifically to the corrosion protection package.

Applications of Dodecenylsuccinic Acid Hemiester CMET T747A:

CMET T747A is applied in various industrial lubricating and protective oil formulations where corrosion inhibition is a key requirement. Its specific properties make it a relevant choice for several product categories:

Turbine Oils: Its low acid value and demulsibility align with the stringent requirements for long-life turbine lubricants, which must effectively separate water and protect critical components.

Hydraulic Fluids: Used in industrial and mobile hydraulic systems to protect pumps, valves, and actuators from rust caused by condensation or contamination.

Circulating & Machine Tool Oils: Provides corrosion protection for bearings, gears, and slides in machinery that uses centralized lubrication systems or is exposed to coolants/moisture.

Compressor Oils: Helps protect the internal surfaces of air compressors from rust during periods of shutdown when moisture can condense.

Industrial Gear Oils: Incorporated into gear oil formulations to offer supplementary protection against moisture-induced corrosion in gear sets.

Price of Dodecenylsuccinic Acid Hemiester CMET T747A:

The current price of Dodecenylsuccinic Acid Hemiester CMET T747A may vary depending on numerous factors, including the supplier, quantity, and specific formulation requirements.  For accurate and up-to-date pricing information, it is advisable to contact the manufacturer directly.
