When conditions encourage the rapid condensation of water in a cooler area of the pipe, a film of water can form at the top of the pipe, which can lead to top-of-line corrosion. As the water at the pipe's top becomes saturated with acidic gases, the pipe corrodes. Changes in conditions, such as flow rate, temperature, and pressure, over the course of the life of a well, production or processing system, or pipeline, can complicate matters further by causing changes in corrosivity or even potential erosion mechanisms.

This product serves the dual purpose; inhibiting corrosion as well as neutralizing it. After being utilized for an extended period of time at a variety of oil refineries, the product garners a positive reputation. The product effectively prevents dew point corrosion and other types of corrosion while having a high corrosion inhibiting rate, small usage amount, good water solubility, innocuity, and a slight pungent smell.
