Abstract

Abstract A series of novel water-dispersible corrosion inhibiting solutions are disclosed which contain a composition which includes the reaction product of an amine mixture and an organic monomer acid mixture. A process for the inhibition of corrosion in aqueous environment is also disclosed. The process is particularly useful for protecting metal surfaces in subterranean petroleum pumping wells.
