Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A composition for stabilizing iron compounds in an aqueous environment, includes a polycarboxylic acid or its salt(s), at least one monomeric or polymeric phosphonate including at least one phosphonic acid group, or its salt(s), at least one corrosion inhibitor including amino groups, and 1-15 weight-% of polycitric acid or a copolymer of citric acid with polyols or glycerol, calculated as an active ingredient from a total weight of constituents in the composition, as dry.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A composition for stabilizing iron compounds in an aqueous environment, comprising: a polycarboxylic acid or its salt(s), at least one monomeric or polymeric phosphonate comprising at least one phosphonic acid group, or its salt(s), at least one corrosion inhibitor comprising amino groups, and 1-15 weight-% of polycitric acid or a copolymer of citric with polyols or glycerol, calculated as an active ingredient from a total weight of the constituents in the composition, as dry. 2 . The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the polycarboxylic acid is selected from poly(meth)acrylic acid, or a copolymer of (meth)acrylic acid and maleic acid, itaconic acid or lactic acid, preferably a poly(meth)acrylic acid. 3 . The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the polycarboxylic acid has a weight average molecular weight (MW) less than 5000 g/mol, preferably in a range of 1000-5000 g/mol, determined by using gel permeation chromatography (GPC). 4 . The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the phosphonate is selected from hydroxyethylene diphosphonic acid (HEDP), amino tris(methylenephosphonic acid) (ATMP), 2-phosphonobutane-1,2,4,-tricarboxylic acid (PBTC), diethylenetriamine penta(methylene phosphonic acid) (DTPMPA), hexamethylenediamine tetramethylene phosphonic acid (BHMTPMPA), polyamino polyether methylene phosphonic acid (PAPEMP) or any combination of them, preferably polyamino polyether methylene phosphonic acid (PAPEMP). 5 . The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the corrosion inhibitor is selected from diethyl hydroxylamine (DEHA), octadecylamine, hexadecylamine, cyclohexylamine, methoxypropylamine, other fatty alcohol amines or any combination of them, preferably diethyl hydroxylamine (DEHA). 6 . The composition according to claim 1 , wherein an amount of the polycarboxylic acid is in a range of 5-80 weight-%, preferably 20-50 weight-% and more preferably 20-30 weight-%, calculated from a total weight of the constituents in the composition, as dry. 7 . The composition according to claim 1 , wherein an amount of the monomeric or polymeric phosphonate(s) is in a range of 10-90 weight-%, preferably 60-90 weight-% and more preferably 70-80 weight-%, calculated from a total weight of the constituents in the composition, as dry. 8 . The composition according to claim 1 , wherein an amount of the corrosion inhibitor is in range of 2-10 weight-%, calculated from a total weight of the constituents in the composition, as dry. 9 . (canceled) 10 . (canceled) 11 . (canceled) 12 . A method for stabilizing iron compounds in an aqueous system, comprising adding a composition according to claim 1 to the aqueous system. 13 . The method according to claim 12 , wherein the composition is added in an amount of 5-100 ppm, preferably 5-70 ppm, and more preferably 5-50 ppm. 14 . The method according to claim 12 , wherein the aqueous system is a water treatment system or a pulp bleaching process.
