Product Description
Scale & Corrosion Inhibitor is a specialized water treatment chemical designed for industrial circulating cooling water systems. It helps control mineral scale formation while reducing corrosion of metal equipment, pipelines and heat-transfer surfaces.
During continuous operation of cooling water systems, dissolved salts become concentrated through evaporation. Increased hardness, alkalinity and dissolved solids can promote scale formation, while dissolved oxygen, chloride and other water chemistry conditions may contribute to corrosion.
Hanhai Chemical supplies different Scale & Corrosion Inhibitor formulations according to make-up water quality, circulating water conditions, equipment materials and operating parameters.
The product can be used in cooling towers, heat exchangers and industrial circulating water systems in industries such as petrochemical, power generation, steel, chemical processing and general manufacturing.
For more accurate product selection, customers can provide their water analysis and cooling system operating data.

Applications
Cooling Tower Systems
Scale & Corrosion Inhibitor is widely used in open recirculating cooling tower systems.
As water evaporates, minerals and dissolved salts become increasingly concentrated. Proper chemical treatment helps control scale deposition and protect system equipment against corrosion.
Heat Exchangers
Scale deposits on heat-transfer surfaces can reduce heat-transfer efficiency and increase operating costs.
Scale & Corrosion Inhibitor helps reduce mineral deposition on suitable heat exchanger surfaces while providing corrosion protection for compatible metal components.
Industrial Circulating Water Systems
The product can be used in circulating cooling water systems in:
- Petrochemical plants
- Chemical plants
- Power plants
- Steel and metallurgical plants
- Manufacturing facilities
- Other industrial cooling systems
Product formulation and dosage should be selected according to the actual water quality and operating conditions.
Petrochemical & Refinery Cooling Water
Petrochemical and refinery cooling systems often operate continuously and require stable water treatment programs.
Scale & Corrosion Inhibitor can be incorporated into a comprehensive cooling water treatment program to help protect pipelines, heat exchangers and other circulating-water equipment.
Power & Metallurgical Industries
Industrial cooling systems in power generation, steel and metallurgical operations can experience both scaling and corrosion problems.
A suitable treatment program can help maintain equipment condition and stable heat-transfer performance.
How Scale & Corrosion Inhibitor Works
Cooling water systems face two major problems:
Scale Formation
Minerals such as calcium salts can precipitate under certain conditions and form deposits on heat-transfer surfaces and pipelines.
Corrosion
Water chemistry, dissolved oxygen, chloride, temperature and metal characteristics can contribute to corrosion of system equipment.
A properly selected Scale & Corrosion Inhibitor is formulated to help address both problems.
Depending on the formulation, the product can help interfere with scale crystal formation and deposition, while corrosion-inhibiting components help reduce corrosive attack on compatible metal surfaces.
A typical treatment process is:
Make-up Water → Cooling Tower / Circulating System → Chemical Dosing → Heat Exchanger → Circulation
The final chemical program should be based on the actual system conditions.
Product Advantages
Scale Control
Helps reduce the formation and deposition of mineral scale in suitable industrial cooling water systems.
Corrosion Protection
Provides corrosion-control performance for compatible metal equipment under appropriate treatment conditions.
Maintain Heat Transfer Efficiency
Controlling deposits on heat-transfer surfaces helps maintain more stable heat exchanger performance.
Reduce Cleaning & Maintenance
Proper water treatment can help reduce problems associated with scale accumulation and corrosion-related equipment deterioration.
Suitable for Multiple Industries
Can be selected for cooling water systems in petrochemical, power, steel, chemical and manufacturing industries.
Customized Formulation
Different formulations can be supplied according to water chemistry, system materials, concentration cycles and operating conditions.
Customized Cooling Water Treatment Solution
Cooling water chemistry varies significantly between different plants and regions.
For this reason, we do not recommend selecting a Scale & Corrosion Inhibitor only by product name.
For product selection, customers can provide:
- Make-up Water Analysis
- Circulating Water Analysis
- Total Hardness
- Calcium Hardness
- Alkalinity
- Chloride
- Sulfate
- Conductivity
- pH
- Operating Temperature
- Cycles of Concentration
- Cooling Water Flow
- Equipment / Metallurgy Information
- Current Treatment Chemical
- Current Dosage
- Existing Scale or Corrosion Problem
Based on this information, a suitable product formulation and dosing approach can be discussed.
Dosage
There is no universal dosage suitable for every cooling water system.
The appropriate dosage depends on factors including:
Water Chemistry + Cycles of Concentration + System Temperature + Equipment Materials + Existing Deposits + Operating Conditions
Customers already using a competitor’s product can provide the current product type, dosage, water analysis and treatment performance for evaluation.
Final dosage should be confirmed according to the actual cooling water system and technical evaluation.
Packaging & Storage
Scale & Corrosion Inhibitor is supplied in suitable industrial liquid packaging.
Packaging options can be arranged according to order quantity, transportation method and customer requirements.
Store in a cool, dry and well-ventilated area.
Keep containers tightly closed and protect the product from unsuitable temperatures and storage conditions.
Detailed handling, storage and transportation requirements should follow the latest SDS for the supplied product grade.

FAQ
What is a Scale & Corrosion Inhibitor?
A Scale & Corrosion Inhibitor is a water treatment chemical designed to help control both mineral scale formation and corrosion in industrial water systems.
Where is Scale & Corrosion Inhibitor commonly used?
It is commonly used in cooling towers, heat exchangers and industrial circulating cooling water systems.
Is this product the same as RO Antiscalant?
No.
RO Antiscalant is designed primarily for reverse osmosis membrane systems, while Scale & Corrosion Inhibitor is typically used in industrial circulating cooling water systems where both scale and corrosion need to be controlled.
What types of scale can it help control?
Performance depends on the product formulation and water chemistry. Scale associated with calcium salts and other mineral deposits can be addressed through an appropriately selected treatment program.
Which industries use this product?
Typical industries include petrochemical, chemical, power generation, steel, metallurgy and general manufacturing.
