Usage

General Description

Monosodium fumarate is a chemical compound that is derived from fumaric acid and sodium. It is commonly used in the food industry as a food additive and preservative, particularly in processed and packaged foods. Monosodium fumarate helps to inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi, thus prolonging the shelf life of food products. It is also used in the pharmaceutical industry as a stabilizer and buffer in various medications. Additionally, monosodium fumarate is used in the production of animal feeds to improve the nutritional content and stability of the feed. Overall, monosodium fumarate plays an important role in enhancing the safety and quality of various consumer products.

Study of corrosion and scale inhibition of polyepoxysuccinic acid derivative

Polyepoxysuccinic acid derivative was synthesized from L-cysteine and polyepoxysuccinic acid a condensation polymer formed by cyclization and polymerization with maleic anhydride. The structure of polyepoxysuccinic acid derivative was characterized by means of FTIR and 13C NMR. The scale inhibition and corrosion inhibition performances of polyepoxysuccinic acid derivative were studied. Scale inhibition and corrosion mechanisms were analyzed by means of SEM. The scale inhibition rate of polyepoxysuccinic acid derivative can reach 98.9 % under Ca2+ 400 mg L-1, HCO3- 800 mg L-1, polyepoxysuccinic acid derivative 8 mg L-1. Polyepoxysuccinic acid derivative is better than polyepoxysuccinic acid in corrosion inhibition performance and the corrosion inhibition rate can reach 65.14 % at 40 °C in dynamic experiment. SEM showed that the calcium carbonate crystal lattice was distorted completely from calcite to vaterite by using polyepoxysuccinic acid derivative. The surface of the test piece has dense protective adsorption film layer when it was immersed in solution with polyepoxysuccinic acid derivative.
