The usage of steels in the industrial sectors has been gradually increasing. The steel is being widely used in road constructions, railways, skyscrapers, bridges, shipbuilding, pipelines, cars and construction materials. Nevertheless, one should consider the consequences of corrosion when utilizing steel as their main material components. Reaction of steel corrosion is irreversible deterioration and destruction to the steel material due to the electrochemical or chemical reaction of its surface to environmental factors such as acids, moisture and oxygen. Accordingly, the corrosion of steels would cost more than billions of dollars for its maintenance.
Steel's widespread use in infrastructure exposes it to corrosion, a silent but significant threat. Corrosion is costly, poses safety risks, and requires innovative mitigation strategies for sustainability and longevity.
This invention is coolant with corrosion inhibitor properties for metal treatment which is developed and formulated from oil palm waste. Ligno X Coolant has been proven to inhibit metal corrosion up to 90% and can reduce corrosion. Operationally, Ligno X Coolant require low cost production and does not produce hazardous waste. This solution also has less toxicity compound and safe chemical for the environment.
• Green technology active ingredient
• Single-step rust inhibitor
• Low cost to produce
According to Grand View Research and HIS Market, world consumption of corrosion inhibitors grew at an average annual rate of about 2% from 2012 to 2016. Consumption is expected to grow at an average annual rate of about 2% during 2016 to 2021. In spite of this, his product also potentially to be used in various industries including water treatment, metal, lubricants, oil and gas, automotive, marine and aerospace.
