COMPOSITION FOR PROTECTING TECHNOLOGICAL EQUIPMENT AGAINST SALT DEPOSITS AND INTERNAL CORROSION

Aimed studies on the synthesis of metal complexonates have carried out. The reaction of obtaining zincate zincate oxyethylene diphosphonic acid OEDP has studied. On the basis of synthesized zincate-OEDP, compositions of corrosion inhibitors and deposits of mineral salts with the addition of a vacuum residue of monoethanolamine (RMEA) and polyaminocrotanol (PKI-3), which are able to effectively suppress corrosion processes in environments with different initial corrosive activity, have been compiled. It is proved that the high efficiency of the composition OEDP : zincate-OEDP : PKI-3 (maximum protective effect - 97.9%) is much more effective than the composition OEDP : zincate-OEDP : RMEA (maximum protective effect - 92.0%). This is due to an increase in ammonium centers, the strength of complexonates based on OEDP, and the presence of a strong methyl-nitrogen bond in the compositions prepared with PKI-3, as a result of which stronger protective layers are formed on the surface of the metal subject to corrosion. Low-stage, energy-saving technologies for the production of inhibitors of mineral salt deposition and corrosion based on local raw materials and secondary industrial products have developed.

Influence of 1-Hydroxyethylidene-1,1-Diphosphonic Acid on the Soft Tissue-Dissolving and Gelatinolytic Effect of Ultrasonically Activated Sodium Hypochlorite in Simulated Endodontic Environments

The addition of Dual Rinse HEDP, an etidronate powder, to a sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) solution can create a combined single endodontic irrigant with a soft tissue-dissolving and a decalcifying effect, which can replace traditional alternating irrigation with chemically non-compatible solutions. While the short-term compatibility between NaOCl and 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid (HEDP) has been shown, it remains unclear whether ultrasonic activation of a combined NaOCl & HEDP solution immediately reduces the available chlorine and/or renders the NaOCl ineffective in dissolving organic tissue remnants. This was tested in three experiments: (1) direct activation in test tubes in an ultrasonic bath and then the activation by an ultrasonically oscillating tip (IrriSafe) in (2) an epoxy resin model containing a simulated isthmus filled with gelatin, and (3) extracted teeth with simulated resorption cavities filled with soft tissue. The control solutions were physiological saline and 2.5% NaOCl without HEDP. In (1), available chlorine after 30 s of ultrasonic activation (37 kHz) of test and control solution was assessed, as well as shrimp tissue weight loss in direct exposure. In (2) and (3), the ultrasonic tip was driven at 1/3 of full power using the respective unit, and areas of removed gelatin from the isthmus and tissue weight loss were used as the outcomes, respectively. Experiment (1) revealed no negative impact by HEDP on available chlorine (1), while all three experiments showed a highly significant (p > 0.001) synergistic effect, which was not hampered by HEDP, between NaOCl and ultrasonic activation regarding tissue weight loss (1, 3) and dissolution of gelatin (2).
