Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
222 words
A method for preventing the corrosion of a metal composition in contact with a down hole well fluid, which method comprises contacting the surface of said metal composition with an effective amount of, as a corrosion inhibitor, a composition which comprises the reaction product of the components selected from the group consisting of (A) at least one pyrazine, pyrimidine, pyridazine, quinoline, isoquinoline, cinnoline, naphthyridine, or pyridine compound, which compound(s) is (are) free of unsaturated hydrocarbon substituents, having one or more rings, at least one nitrogen atom and containing at least one group selected from (1) carboxylic acid, (2) carboxylic acid ester, (3) acyclic carboxylic acid anhydride, (4) carboxylic acid halide or (5) combination thereof; with (B) an organic amine having from about 1 to about 72 carbon atoms; and (C) optionally reacted or neutralized with a mineral acid or an organic acid having from about 1 to about 36 carbon atoms; and wherein components (A) and (B) are present in quantities which provide a ratio of --CO-- groups to --NH 2 and/or --NH-- groups of from about 0.1:1 to about 1.2:1 and component (C) is present in a quantity which provides a ratio of mineral acid or carboxylic acid to reactive amine hydrogen of the product formed from the reaction of components (A) and (B) of from about zero:1 to about 2:1.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
222 words
A method for preventing the corrosion of a metal composition in contact with a down hole well fluid, which method comprises contacting the surface of said metal composition with an effective amount of, as a corrosion inhibitor, a composition which comprises the reaction product of the components selected from the group consisting of (A) at least one pyrazine, pyrimidine, pyridazine, quinoline, isoquinoline, cinnoline, naphthyridine, or pyridine compound, which compound(s) is (are) free of unsaturated hydrocarbon substituents, having one or more rings, at least one nitrogen atom and containing at least one group selected from (1) carboxylic acid, (2) carboxylic acid ester, (3) acyclic carboxylic acid anhydride, (4) carboxylic acid halide or (5) combination thereof; with (B) an organic amine having from about 1 to about 72 carbon atoms; and (C) optionally reacted or neutralized with a mineral acid or an organic acid having from about 1 to about 36 carbon atoms; and wherein components (A) and (B) are present in quantities which provide a ratio of --CO-- groups to --NH 2 and/or --NH-- groups of from about 0.1:1 to about 1.2:1 and component (C) is present in a quantity which provides a ratio of mineral acid or carboxylic acid to reactive amine hydrogen of the product formed from the reaction of components (A) and (B) of from about zero:1 to about 2:1.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
