Inhibitor AZ8104 FACT SHEET

Inhibitor* AZ8104

FACT SHEET

Halogen Resistant Azole (HRA) – Copper Corrosion Inhibitor

  • Inhibits corrosion of copper, admiralty brass, and other copper alloys
  • Product is compatible with oxidizing biocides
  • Compatible with all other Veolia treatment programs
  • Eliminates halogenated azole odor

Description and Use

Inhibitor AZ8104 is a unique azole chemistry used for the inhibition of copper and copper alloy heat exchanger surfaces. This material is used to establish a protective corrosion inhibitor film on the metal surface. Inhibitor AZ8104 is unique because it is compatible with oxidizing biocides. This makes it a good choice for cooling systems where chlorine and/or bromine are used to control microbiological activity. Indirectly, it also reduces the corrosion of steel surfaces within a given cooling system. This occurs if the steel corrosion is a result of a galvanic reaction between the steel surface and the products of copper corrosion which have been deposited on the steel. Figure 1 demonstrates how Inhibitor AZ8104 can improve copper and copper alloy corrosion rates in the presence of oxidizing biocides.

Treatment and Feeding Requirements

Dosage – Proper treatment levels of Inhibitor AZ8104 depend on many factors, such as corrosion load and conditions particular to a given installation. This product is to be used in accordance with control procedures Veolia establishes for a specific application.

Feed point – Inhibitor AZ8104 should be fed at a point in the cooling water where turbulence, flow pattern, etc. will ensure good mixing of the product with the water to be treated.
