Abstract

Corrosion activity of a multi-component solution, namely, distiller liquid previously clari­fied and strengthened to 20 wt% by CaCl₂ including the addition of corrosion inhibitors at –5°С to low-carbon 08kp steel is studied by the gravimetric method. Тhe holding time of the specimens is 500–650 h. In distiller liquid corrosion rate is 0.111 g/(m²×h), corrosion depth is 0.12 mm/year, steel resistance refers to the IV group (relatively resistant). When adding the hexamethylene­tetramine, triethanolamine, trilon B corrosion inhibitors or their mixture in the amount of 0.5 wt% the corrosion resis­tance of steel improves, and the best results are achieved by adding hexamethylenetetra­mine with triethanolamine. The obtained results indicate the possibility of using the distiller liquid of OJSC “Lysychanska Soda” with additives of such corrosion inhibitors as reagents for preventing highway surface against icing
