Abstract

Abstract Normal and acid salts of substituted imidazolines and saturated aliphatic mono- and dicarboxylic acids for use in compositions of water soluble corrosion inhibitors. Continuous or intermittent application of liquid coatings of these inhibitors on metals, particularly ferrous metals in contact with sweet and sour petroliferous well fluids, form persistent films which afford protection against corrosion, even at elevated temperature.
