Claims
- 1. A method for controlling the corrosion of ferrous-based metals in contact with an aqueous system comprising introducing into said aqueous system a sufficient amount for the purpose of controlling corrosion of a treatment comprising a compound of the general formula: ##STR8## wherein R is alkyl, C.sub.4 -C.sub.9 aryl, substituted alkyl or C.sub.4 -C.sub.9 substituted aryl; R' and R" are each independently hydrogen, C.sub.1-4 alkyl or C.sub.1-4 substituted alkyl; Z is NH, NR, O or S; n is a positive integer greater than 1; f is a positive integer; and M is H, a water soluble cation or a C.sub.1-3 alkyl group.
- 2. The method as recited in claim 1 further comprising adding to said aqueous system a topping agent selected from the group consisting of polyacrylates, phosphoric acids and water soluble salts thereof, phosphonic acids and water soluble salts thereof, polyvalent metal salts and azole compounds in an amount sufficient to enhance the scale controlling and corrosion inhibiting properties thereof.
- 3. The method as recited in claim 2 wherein said polyacrylate has the formula: ##STR9## wherein each R.sup.1 is independently H or lower alkyl; R.sup.2 is OH, NH.sub.2 or OM; M is a water soluble cation; R.sup.3 is a hydroxy substituted alkyl or alkylene radical having from about 1 to 6 carbon atoms; X is SO.sub.3, PO.sub.3, PO.sub.4 or CO.sub.2 ; Z is H or a water soluble cation or cations; and a is 0 or 1.
- 4. The method as recited in claim 1 wherein said aqueous system is a cooling water system.
- 5. The method as recited in claim 1 wherein R is C.sub.1 -C.sub.20 alkyl.
- 6. The method as recited in claim 1 wherein R is C.sub.4 -C.sub.6 aryl.
- 7. The method as recited in claim 1 wherein R is --CH.sub.2 C.sub.6 H.sub.4 CH.sub.2 -- and f is 2.
- 8. The method as recited in claim 1 wherein M is Na.sup.+.
- 9. The method as recited in claim 1 wherein said compound is added to the aqueous system at active treatment levels ranging from about 0.025 to about 500 parts per million.
- 10. The method as recited in claim 9 wherein said compound is added to the aqueous system at active treatment levels ranging from about 0.05 to about 100 parts per million.
- 11. The method as recited in claim 3 wherein the molar ratio of x:y is from about 30:1 to 1:20.
- 12. The method as recited in claim 1 wherein said aqueous system is a steam generating system.
- 13. The method as recited in claim 1 wherein said aqueous system is a gas scrubbing system.
- 14. The method as recited in claim 1 wherein said aqueous system is a pulp and papermaking system.
- 15. The method as recited in claim 1 wherein R is HOCH.sub.2 (CHOH).sub.3 C(CO.sub.2 H)-- and f is 1.
