QUATERNARY AMMONIUM COMPOSITION FOR INHIBITING CORROSION

摘要

The present invention relates to a composition that is suitable for use as a corrosion inhibitor to prevent corrosion, particularly on metallic devices for the recovery and transportation of hydrocarbons in oil production and processing. In particular, the present invention relates to quaternary ammonium compositions found to be effective corrosion inhibitors. The invention also concerns methods of preparation and use of the compositions and methods for inhibiting or preventing the corrosion of metal surfaces using said compositions,, particularly in oil and gas field applications.
