Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to, for example, an anticorrosion method for a water system, a metal corrosion inhibitor, a water treatment agent for metal anticorrosion, a water treatment agent, and an anticorrosion method for a water system including inhibiting corrosion of a metal in contact with water by using these reagents. Background Art
[0002] Metal components (such as heat exchangers, reaction vessels, and pipes made of carbon steel, copper, or copper alloy, etc.) installed in a water system (such as an open recirculating cooling water system, etc.) are corroded due to contact with the water in the water system. Therefore, anticorrosion treatment is usually carried out by adding chemical reagents.
[0003] For example, in order to inhibit corrosion of heat exchangers, reaction vessels, and pipes made of carbon steel in a cooling water system, a technique using film-forming amines is considered.
[0004] For example, Non-Patent Document 1 proposed a method using film-forming amines as another method for inhibiting corrosion. The method described in Non-Patent Document 1 is mainly applied to the corrosion inhibition effect of iron-based components in a boiler water system. In Non-Patent Document 1, as the anticorrosion mechanism based on film-forming amines, it is disclosed that by adsorbing film-forming amines onto the metal surface via amino groups to form a dense monolayer or multilayer film, the contact between the metal and water is prevented, thereby inhibiting metal corrosion.
[0005] For example, Patent Document 1 proposed the following anticorrosion method: by coexisting film-forming amines and an M alkalinity component in a cooling water system to form a corrosion-resistant coating on the surface of a metal component, corrosion of the metal component in contact with the cooling water system is inhibited, wherein a neutralizing amine is used as the M alkalinity component, and in the initial treatment of forming the corrosion-resistant coating, the M alkalinity of the cooling water system is adjusted to 90 mg / L or more in terms of CaCO3.

[0032] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described. It should be noted that the following embodiments are examples of representative embodiments of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention should not be construed narrowly only by this example. Further, in this specification, unless otherwise specified, percentages are expressed in terms of mass (mass / mass %). Further, the upper limit value (hereinafter) and the lower limit value (above) of each numerical range can be freely combined as needed.
[0033] 1. Metal anticorrosion method for water systems according to this embodiment
[0034] The present invention can provide an anticorrosion method for water systems, which is used to inhibit the corrosion of metals in contact with water systems. The method includes using a phosphorus compound, a film-forming amine, and a polymer in the water system. The anticorrosion method for water systems can be an anticorrosion treatment method for water systems. The polymer is preferably a low molecular weight and / or (meth)acrylic polymer. More specifically, examples include low molecular weight polymers, (meth)acrylic polymers, and low molecular weight (meth)acrylic polymers. It is preferred to select one or more of these. More preferably, the polymer is a copolymer of (meth)acrylic monomers and sulfonic acid group-containing monomers having a weight average molecular weight of 500 to 100,000.
[0035] According to the present invention, a technique related to anticorrosion in water systems can be provided, which is used to better inhibit the corrosion of metals in contact with water. Further, according to the present invention, by combining the use of a film-forming amine and a polymer, a technique that can better enhance the metal anticorrosion based on the phosphorus compound can be provided, thereby enabling the provision of a technique for metal anticorrosion in water systems that can reduce the usage amount of the phosphorus compound or phosphorus. According to the present invention, a technique that can enhance the anticorrosion strength of metal materials in water systems or cooling water systems (preferably circulating cooling water, more preferably an open circulating cooling water system) can be provided. Further, according to the present invention, a technique that can enhance the anticorrosion strength of metal materials during water system descaling, thereby enabling the extension of the lifespan of metal materials, can be provided.
[0036] In the prior art, a film-forming amine is added to a water system for use in the anticorrosion of metal components included in the water system. For example, corrosion inhibitors for steam in boilers have been proposed, or the anticorrosion of metal materials is enhanced by combining a corrosion inhibitor for copper and acid consumption. Further, the use of a film-forming amine as an on-line scale remover in an open circulating cooling water system has also attracted attention. However, the anticorrosion strength of the film-forming amine itself is weak, and there are cases where the corrosiveness of the material is a concern during the use of the film-forming amine as a scale remover.
[0037] On the other hand, in the present invention, when a film-forming amine is used as a scale inhibitor (preferably an in-line scale inhibitor), further using a low molecular weight and / or (meth)acrylic polymer can provide a technique that can enhance the anticorrosion strength and achieve a corrosion inhibition effect on the material to be descaled.
[0038] In the present specification, "in-line" in "in-line scale inhibitor" means that scale removal is carried out by operating the water system without stopping (for example, continuous operation or circulation through a circulating water system, etc.), and the operation of the water system (such as plant operation, etc.).
[0039] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, by operating the water system, during the operation of the water system, the chemical reagent to be used or the water containing the chemical reagent is brought into contact with the components of the water system (such as metal components, internal piping, etc.). Therefore, in addition to the anticorrosion effect, a scale inhibition effect can also be exerted.

Since low-carbon steel to medium-carbon steel are widely used, carbon steel containing 0.6 mass% or less is also called ordinary steel. In addition, it is said that the carbon content of cast iron exceeds 2 mass%. In the present embodiment, among these, ordinary steel, low-carbon steel, and medium-carbon steel, and more preferably low-carbon steel, can better exert the anticorrosion effect.

[0144] The cooling water system applied to this embodiment is not particularly limited, but is preferably a system in which cooling water is used for the operation of air-conditioning equipment in buildings and regional facilities, etc. or heat exchangers in manufacturing plants, etc. The cooling water system can be a transient mode type, an open-circulation type, or a closed-circulation type.
[0145] In this embodiment, when applied to a circulating cooling water system, an excellent anti-corrosion effect can be exerted in the circulating cooling water system.

[0147] The type of the circulating cooling water system is not particularly limited, but the system can be an open-circulation cooling water system or a closed-circulation cooling water system. As an open-circulation cooling water system, a configuration that allows the cooling water to circulate in an open manner is preferred. As a closed-circulation cooling water system, a configuration that allows the cooling water to circulate in a closed manner is preferred.
[0148] In addition, the metal anti-corrosion treatment method for a cooling water system according to the present embodiment (more specifically, the metal anti-corrosion treatment method for metal components in a cooling water system) preferably includes at least the following steps: adding each of a film-forming amine, a polymer, and a phosphorus compound to the cooling water system, and bringing these components into contact with the metal components. At this time, the film-forming amine and the polymer or the film-forming amine, the polymer, and the phosphorus compound may be added as a metal anti-corrosion treatment agent of a single-component chemical reagent, or added as a combined product of a metal anti-corrosion treatment agent of a multi-component chemical reagent. The film-forming amine, the polymer, and the phosphorus compound may be added to the cooling water system simultaneously or at different times, and are preferably added in such a manner that these three components coexist in the water system. There is no particular limitation on the time when these three components coexist in the water system, and it may be continuous or intermittent. For example, the phosphorus compound, the polymer (first polymer), and the film-forming amine may be added to the cooling water system in sequence. In addition, after mixing these, a polymer (second polymer) may be further added. The first polymer and the second polymer may be the same or different polymers. The usage amount of the second polymer is preferably 0.5 to 2 times or more, more preferably about 1.5 to 2.5 times, the usage amount of the first polymer. When the first polymer and the second polymer are the same polymer, the total usage amount of the first polymer and the second polymer may be the total amount used or added.

By adding these three components in such a manner that they exist at any position in the water system, a better anti-corrosion effect on the metal materials in contact with water downstream thereof can be obtained. In addition, when all or part of the water system circulates, as a result of the circulation of the water system, these three components are mixed, whereby a better anti-corrosion effect on the metal materials in contact with water in the water system can be obtained.
[0150] As described above, the metal anti-corrosion treatment method according to the present embodiment can impart an excellent anti-corrosion effect to the metal components in contact with water.
[0151] Reference will be made to Figure 1 describe the metal anti-corrosion treatment method for the open-circuit cooling water system 1 as an example of the present embodiment, but the present embodiment is not limited thereto.
[0152] In the open recirculating cooling water system 1, water containing a film-forming amine, a polymer, and a phosphorus compound is transported from the sump 15 through the circulation water path 20 to the heat exchanger 30 by the transfer pump 21, then passes through the heat exchanger 30 and returns to the open cooling tower 10 through the circulation water path 20. In the cooling tower 10, the water containing these components passes through the spraying means 12 and the packing area 13, is stored in the sump 15, and is again transported to the circulation water path 20 by the pump 21. In the case of this embodiment, the anticorrosion effect can be maintained in the cooling water system during this circulation. As a result of this circulation, the film-forming amine and the polymer or the film-forming amine, the polymer, and the phosphorus compound present in the water in the water system can come into contact with the metal members, and the anticorrosion effect on the metal members can be exerted. It is preferable to use a chemical injection device to add the film-forming amine, the polymer, and the phosphorus compound to the water system, and the chemical injection device can add each component or a mixture of two or three of these components so that the three components are present in the water system together. In addition, the addition amounts of the respective components can be adjusted so that each component is within a corresponding predetermined concentration range in the water system.
[0153] The film-forming amine and the polymer or the film-forming amine, the polymer, and the phosphorus compound are transported to the sump 15 simultaneously or at different times by one or more chemical reagent injection means 17. These components can be mixed in the piping during transportation, or can be mixed in the sump 15. In addition, one or more chemical reagent injection means 17 can be provided. For example, a plurality of individual chemical reagent injection means can be provided respectively for each of the film-forming amine, the polymer, and the phosphorus compound, or one chemical reagent injection means can be provided for adding a single-component chemical reagent containing these to the water system or for mixing these components. The makeup water supply means 16 supplies water to the sump 15 as needed to compensate for any water shortage caused by evaporation or the like, and the flow path for supplying the makeup water to the sump 15 can be configured so that one or more chemical reagents from the chemical reagent injection means 17 can be added. The cooling air passes through 13 and 12 from the louver 18, and the external air discharged by the blowing means 11 is discharged from 11.

[0190] <Example>
[0191] Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the following examples and comparative examples, etc. However, it should be noted that the following examples are only examples of representative embodiments of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention should not be narrowly construed as being only these examples.
[0192] <Test Example 1>
[0193] <Experimental Conditions>
[0194] Pure water was filled in a 1L glass beaker, and sodium bicarbonate solution and calcium chloride solution were added to adjust the pH to 8.4, the acid consumption to 150 mg CaCO3 / L, and the calcium hardness to 150 mg CaCO3 / L.
[0195] 4 mg PO4 / L of HEDP (1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid) was added as a corrosion inhibitor and 5 mg solid / L of AA / AMPS polymer (monomer ratio (mol% ratio) 80:20, weight average molecular weight 20,000) was added as a scale inhibitor. 50 mg / L of a film-forming amine (alkyl propanediamine (alkyl group having 16 to 18 carbon atoms)) was added, and then 10 mg solid / L of various polymers was added.
[0196] Tables 1 to 3 show Test Example 1 (Reference Examples 1-1 to 1-6 and Examples 1-7 to 1-10), Test Example 2 (Reference Example 2-1 and Examples 2-2 to 2-4), and Test Example 3 (Reference Examples 3-1 to 3-3 and Examples 3-4 to 3-5) for each combination of phosphorus compounds, film-forming amines, and polymer components.
[0197] For the reference examples, experiments were also conducted without adding HEDP and without adding the film-forming amine.
[0198] As shown in Tables 1 and 2, the polymers used were AA / AMPS polymers, AA / HAPS polymers, and polymaleic acid-based polymers, which had a weight average molecular weight of 400 to 110,000. The molecular weight of the polymer is the weight average molecular weight, which is a value determined by GPC analysis (standard substance PAANA, sodium polyacrylate, manufactured by PSS).
[0199] <Corrosion Rate Test (mg / dm 2 / day)>
[0200] The test piece 101, which is a test piece of SPCC (15mm’30mm), is immersed in the test water 102, and a rotary corrosion test device 100 equipped with a temperature control device 104 and a stirring device 103 ( Figure 2 ) is used to conduct a 3-day test at a water temperature of 40 °C at 150 rpm. The temperature control device 104 heats and cools the test water 102, and the stirring device 103 stirs the test water with a stirrer. The material of SPCC (steel plate cold commercial: a kind of cold-rolled carbon steel plate) is low-carbon steel with a carbon content of less than 0.15%.
[0201] After the test is completed, the test piece is pulled out, the corrosion is removed with hydrochloric acid, and the corrosion weight is measured. The corrosion rate (mg / dm 2 / day) is calculated based on the corrosion weight.
[0202] In addition, in order to verify the effects of different corrosion inhibitors used, PBTC (4mg PO4 / L) is also used instead of HEDP (4mg PO4 / L) for evaluation.

[0211]
[0212] <Results / Discussion>
[0213] Tables 1 and 2 show the results of using HEDP as a corrosion inhibitor, and Table 3 shows the results of using PBTC. It was confirmed that regardless of the type of corrosion inhibitor, the use of AA / AMPS or AA / HAPS with a molecular weight of 4,000 to 20,000 significantly improved the anti-corrosion effect and led to an extended lifespan of the metal during the addition of the film-forming amine. In addition, from the trend of the corrosion rate, it is considered that the AA / AMPS ratio and AA / HAPS ratio (mol%) of the AA / AMPS polymer and AA / HAPS polymer are preferably 1 to 95:99 to 5, more preferably 60 to 95:40 to 5, and further preferably 75 to 90:25 to 10. As a result, it was confirmed that the anti-corrosion effect on the metal material in contact with water was significantly improved by the presence of three components: a film-forming amine, a low-molecular-weight (meth)acrylic acid-based polymer containing a sulfur atom, and a phosphonic acid compound in the water system. In addition, it was confirmed that by using the film-forming amine and the low-molecular-weight (meth)acrylic acid-based polymer containing a sulfur atom in combination, there was a synergistic effect on the corrosion inhibition effect on the metal material in contact with water. In addition, it is preferred that the polymer is used in an amount greater than 5 mg / L in the water system.
