Stabilization of aqueous silicates using alkali salts of silylorganosulfonates.

摘要

Alkali siliconates of silylorganosulfonates are capable of stabilizing solutions of water soluble silicates and enhancing their usefulness as corrosion inhibitors for metals that come in contact with aqueous, alcoholic or aqueous-alcoholic solutions. The disclosed alkali siliconates of silylorganosulfonates are also useful stabilizers for aqueous silicates in such applications as treating boiler water, geothermal water and cooling coil water. Methods of using the alkali siliconates of silylorganosulfonates to provide corrosion inhibiting antifreeze and coolant solutions are disclosed.
