Hydrogen Peroxide and Silver

Chemists around the world have shown considerable interest in various aspects of Silver Nano particles over the past few years and gained serious momentum in terms of various chemical activities, biocidal being one of them. Some of their observation says Silver has relatively wider range of biocidal (anti-bacterial and anti-fungal) pursuits than other metals. On the other hand, Hydrogen Peroxide is highly popular for its disinfecting property, reason being a strong oxidizing agent which helps in eliminating harmful microorganisms wherever used. It oxidizes the cell molecules, rupturing its whole structure and deactivating its ability to replicate.

Since Hydrogen Peroxide is a strong oxidizing agent and silver shows excellent anti-microbial property, their chemical combination brings a lot to the table as a rapid yet effective disinfecting agent with limited or rather no toxicity.

Hydrogen Peroxide and Silver works as an eco-friendly disinfectant, manifesting high efficacy in killing harmful micro-organisms from almost all types of hard surface without leaving any kind of toxic residues on them. The process of disinfection is carried out by highly volatile hydrogen peroxide which releases hydroxide radicals, which on contact with micro-organisms kills them. The Nano silver quickly stabilizes the peroxide and store it for further disinfecting application. The chemical alliance of silver and hydrogen peroxide manifests superior anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, efficaciously eradicating harmful micro-organisms and preventing further replication of them as the silver present in this combination alters the DNA structure of the same. The combination of these two provides high efficacy in killing of pathogenic elements in almost all possible applications such as water, air and any hard surface.

Alstasan Silvox is a synergy of hydrogen peroxide and silver particles, utilized as a multi-purpose sanitizer and disinfectant in different applications of food processing, beverage, brewery, dairies, agriculture, hospitals, pharma, fisheries, poultry, drinking water, swimming pool, air conditioning, wineries, water tank and pipeline disinfection, reverse osmosis membrane, fumigation, effluent detoxification and various processing industries and institutes.

Acid Corrosion Inhibitor efficiently preventing acid attack

Corrosion is a known phenomenon in the industrial areas and it brings about complicated circumstances in the distribution system which in turn is generally influenced by the metal used, water characteristics etc. Corrosion is referred to the deterioration of materials by chemical interaction with their environment. The term corrosion can sometimes also be applied to the degradation of concrete and wood, plastics, but generally refers to metals. Commonly, Corrosion is a result from water with low pH level where H⁺ concentration seems to be very high to react with the electrons of the cathodes and thus, the problem of corrosion increases. The consequences of corrosion are many and varied and the effects of these on the safe, reliable and efficient operation of equipment or structures are often more serious than the simple loss of a mass of metal.

Acidic Corrosion causes gradual wearing away of material mainly by acidic components. Corrosion due to acid refers to an electrochemical process which is driven by the diffusion of oxygen, moisture, and presence of acidic pollutant on the metal surfaces. In boilers, attack due to acids can be localized at areas with high stress or can take the form of general thinning. Low pH feed water in the boilers can result into serious attack on the metal surfaces.

Acid Corrosion Inhibitor manufactured by Chemtex Speciality Limited have been designed especially for the preventing the attack due to acidic components present in the environment, on the metal components without disturbing the acidic effect or in some places even heightening the acid effect in the given application or process. Acid Corrosion Inhibitor efficiently preventing acid attack, offered by Chemtex, is of the following types such as Sulfuric acid inhibitor, Sulfamic acid inhibitor, Hydrochloric acid inhibitor, citric acid inhibitor, etc.

The type and concentration of the Acid Corrosion Inhibitor to be used is obtained by the type and characteristics of metal to be protected and the conditions under which the metal is to be treated. Iron, Steel, aluminum, titanium, etc., all require alloy specific acid inhibitor formulations of corrosion preventative coatings for the best end result. We, at Chemtex Speciality Limited, prepare a perfect ratio of blending homogeneous solution during the treatment so as to ensure high performance and long lasting protection for the specified metal.
