Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 97 words
A corrosion and scale inhibiting composition useful in preventing corrosion of iron and other metal surfaces in contact with cooling water consisting of: Range ______________________________________ 1) Alkoxylated polyol phosphate ester 30-50% 2) ZnCl.sub.2 2-25% 3) Tannin 5-25% 4) Water 30-10% ______________________________________ wherein said polyol ester is R'(OR)y where R' is an aliphatic hydrocarbon radical from 1-6 carbon atoms and Y = 2-5 and where R is: ##EQU6## n is 1 to 30, and AlkO is an ethylene oxide, a propylene oxide or a butylene oxide with the proviso that at least one occurrence of R is (B).
