CORROSION INHIBITING COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR FUEL CELL COOLANT SYSTEMS

摘要

Carboxylic acids or the salts thereof are suitable for use in cooling systems where low electrical conductivity is required. The compositions are of particular use in fuel cell stacks. The preferred salts are those of amines. The salts can be used with a liquid alcohol freezing point depressant such as monoethylene glycol. Thiazoles and/or triazoles may be included, as well as other corrosion inhibitors known in the art.
