Typical chemical and                    IRGAMET 42 is a liquid, water / glycol soluble, tolutriazole derivative which acts as a

physical properties                        metal deactivator

Applications and typical treat levels recommended

All types of water based fluids,when used at 0.1 - 0.3% with pH > 7, such as :

Antifreeze (engine coolants)

High water based hydraulic fluids (HFA)

Water glycol hydraulic fluids (HFC)

Metal working fluids (emulsions and synthetics)

Benefits

Easy to handle liquid

Suitable replacement for benzotriazole and tolutriazole

Protects yellow metals and cobalt alloys from corrosion

Restrictions

May begin to crystallise if stored at temperatures below 5 °C in water and in glycols there is a solubility gap.
