Cortec VpCI®-629 BIO

Product Description

VpCI-629 Bio is the only oilfield inhibitor product on the market which combines high level of corrosion protection, biodegradability, and low toxicity.

VpCI-629 Bio is soluble in crude oil and dispersible in fresh water and brine solutions. As a fast-acting and long-term inhibitor, VpCI-629 Bio forms an effective corrosion inhibiting barrier for both ferrous and nonferrous metals in the presence of water, halogens, and corrosive gases such as dissolved oxygen, sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide.

Continuing protection between treatments is assured due to solubility, dispersibility in crude water mixtures, and long-term water displacing film formation provided by VpCI-629 Bio. In addition, the product provides vapor phase inhibition to protect areas inaccessible through direct solution contact. This unique characteristic protects internal parts during low fluid levels and combats atmospheric corrosion in production and storage tanks. Field applications and tests, performed by independent laboratories verify that VpCI-629 Bio is effective at a concentration level as low as 5-15 ppm.
