In industrial cleaning and metal treatment, effective corrosion protection is vital to maintaining efficiency, extending equipment life, and ensuring safety. HARKE UK & Ireland is pleased to introduce DeCORE™ TOS from Verdant Specialty Solutions, a powerful corrosion inhibitor designed specifically to enhance your industrial cleaning formulations.
DeCORE™ TOS is an innovative blend of dialkyl thiourea and surfactants, engineered for superior performance in harsh acidic environments.
This versatile ingredient significantly reduces acid attack on metal surfaces, and is ideal for applications such as acid pickling, surface preparation prior to painting, plant cleaning, and oil well acidising. It is also non-foaming.
Key Benefits of DeCORE™ TOS
- Highly effective corrosion inhibition, even in aggressive acid solutions
- Non-foaming formulation, ideal for a variety of cleaning applications
- Easy to handle, pale yellow homogeneous liquid
- Excellent solubility in acidic solutions
- Prolongs the lifespan of metal equipment and surfaces
Testing Data
Recent corrosion studies demonstrate that DeCORE™ TOS provides exceptional protection comparable to well-established market standards.
After extensive tests with sulfuric acid solutions (10% and 20% concentrations), DeCORE™ TOS showed impressive corrosion resistance, visually and quantitatively matching or surpassing competitor products. Steel samples immersed for periods ranging from 24 hours to 45 days displayed significantly reduced corrosion when protected by DeCORE™ TOS.
