Hostacor™ IS

Hostacor™ IS is a low foaming corrosion inhibitor mainly used in cutting & grinding fluids, in rolling emulsions and water-based hydraulic fluids (HFA-E, HFA-S). It is a solid product and comes in acid form, offering the formulator full flexibility for neutralization.

Water-soluble salts of Hostacor™  IS are obtained by neutralization with alkanolamines and aqueous alkali hydroxides. These are used either alone or in combination with other water-soluble corrosion inhibitors or lubricants. Alkanolamine salts derived from Hostacor™  IS are excellent corrosion inhibitors for steel and show very good hard water stability.

Hostacor™  IS is compatible with phosphoric acid esters in neutralized form, like Hordaphos MDB. Thus extreme-pressure properties of semi- and full synthetic formulations based on Hostacor IS can be adjusted.
