Amersite™ corrosion inhibitors
Amersite corrosion inhibitors comprise a range of easy-to-use, liquid products that effectively control oxygen-induced corrosion in steam generating systems. The Amersite family of corrosion inhibitors includes optimum combinations of either non-volatile or volatile oxygen scavengers and metal passivators to address a wide variety of boiler operating conditions. Amersite products react with and remove trace amounts of dissolved oxygen gas, protecting the entire system from corrosion, and passivate metal surfaces, forming protective layers that are corrosion resistant. A variety of formulations are available for a wide range of operating conditions. Specific blends are also available to accommodate FDA and USDA requirements.

Corrosion Monitoring and Metallurgy
Problems related to corrosion cost commercial and industrial plants billions of dollars each year. Although a variety of means exist to inhibit corrosion, it's important to identify the root cause of the corrosion. Ashland Water Technologies’ Corrosion Monitoring and Metallurgy group provides failure analysis and assessments of steam-generating and heat-exchanger equipment. Working closely with customers, this team provides clear identification of the problem, which leads to a more rapid and effective solution. Key services provided by the group include failure analysis, corrosion coupon analysis, and elemental and compound analysis.
Water Process Applications
Ashland Water Technologies’ Water Process Applications team is dedicated to helping customers improve the performance of their boiler, heating and cooling systems, and associated processes. The team supports customers worldwide from four technical centers that house extensive analytical capabilities and innovative process testing instrumentation. Using both laboratory bench and pilot scale equipment, the team can evaluate chemical and mechanical treatments and explore “what-if” scenarios under actual-use conditions. The hard data and insights gained during these evaluations allow Ashland to confidently recommend treatment strategies that ensure system efficiency.
