Tolyltriazole (TTA) Properties:

Pure TTA is a white granule or powder that is comprised of a mixture of 4-methyl-benzotriazole and 5-methyl-benzotriazole. It has a melting point between 80°C and 86°C and is soluble in alcohol, benzene, toluene, chloroform, and watery lye. However, it is only slightly soluble in water. Professionals must be meticulous when handling TTA to ensure safe use.

Tolyltriazole (TTA) Usage:

TTA is primarily used as an antirust and corrosion inhibitor for metals such as silver, copper, zinc, lead, and nickel. It can also be used in antirust oil (tallow) products, gas phase corrosion inhibitors of copper, lubricant additives, cycle water treating compounds, and auto antifreeze. Additionally, when used with manifold sterilization algaecide, it demonstrates an impressive corrosion mitigation effect on close-cycle cooling water systems. Professionalism and meticulousness are required when handling TTA to ensure safe use.

Package and Storage:

TTA should be packed in seals, nonporous plastic, or paper containers. It must be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area to prevent contamination and increase its shelf life. Transportation and handling should be done according to good industrial practices for hazardous chemicals. Professionals must take every precaution to ensure safe transportation, handling, and storage of TTA: 25 kg/bag or customers’ requirement. Easy to wet, please put in aeration, dry place, do not mix it with food and seed.

Synonyms:
