Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
43 words
A process for inhibiting corrosion of iron or steel placed in cement products containing a chloride which comprises adding to said cement products a nitrite and a polyoxyethylene alkyl phosphoric ester or a nitrite and a bispolyalcohol borate or bis polyalcohol borate alkylate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
43 words
A process for inhibiting corrosion of iron or steel placed in cement products containing a chloride which comprises adding to said cement products a nitrite and a polyoxyethylene alkyl phosphoric ester or a nitrite and a bispolyalcohol borate or bis polyalcohol borate alkylate.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
19 words
The process of claim 1, wherein the nitrite is used 1/2-1/500 weight part per weight part of the chloride.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
32 words
