Abstract

A corrosion inhibitor (I) contains lactobionic acid N-alkylamides (II).

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft die Verwendung von Lactobionsäure-N-alkylamiden als Korrosionsschutzmittel.The invention relates to the use of Lactobionic acid N-alkyl amides as anti-corrosion agents.

Bei vielen Vorgängen der Metallbearbeitung wie z.B. Schneiden, Schleifen oder Bohren werden Korrosionsschutzmittel eingesetzt, um die bearbeiteten Metallgegenstände vor Rostbildung zu schützen. Viele der bisher üblichen Korrosionsschutzmittel enthalten schwefelhaltige Verbindungen wie z.B. Petrolsulfonate oder Alkylarylsulfonsäuren oder stickstoffhaltige Verbindungen wie z.B. sekundäre Amine oder Alkanolamine. Schwefelhaltige Korrosionsschutzmittel haben dabei den Nachteil, daß deren Wirkstoffe leicht von schwefelreduzierenden Mikroorganismen modifiziert bzw. abgebaut werden. Bei aminhaltigen Korrosionsschutzmitteln, welche insbesondere sekundäre Amine enthalten, besteht die Möglichkeit, daß aus ihren gesundheitsgefährdende Nitrosamine freigesetzt werden, welche sich zuvor durch unkontrollierte chemische Reaktionen gebildet haben. Es besteht somit immer noch der Bedarf nach neuen Korrosionsschutzmitteln, welche diese Nachteile des Standes der Technik nicht aufweisen. Hierbei sind insbesondere neue aminfreie Korrosionsschutzmittel wünschenswert, die als korrosionsinhibierendes Agens einen auch unter Umweltschutzgesichtspunkten günstigen Wirkstoff auf Basis nachwachsender Rohstoffe enthalten. In many metalworking processes such as Cutting, grinding or drilling become anti-corrosion agents used to protect the machined metal objects from rusting to protect. Many of the usual anti-corrosion agents contain sulfur-containing compounds such as Petroleum sulfonates or alkylarylsulfonic acids or nitrogenous ones Connections such as secondary amines or alkanolamines. Sulphurous Corrosion protection agents have the disadvantage that their active ingredients easily from sulfur-reducing microorganisms modified or dismantled. In the case of amine-containing corrosion protection agents, which contain in particular secondary amines, there is a possibility that from their health endangering Nitrosamines are released, which have previously passed through have formed uncontrolled chemical reactions. It exists hence the need for new anti-corrosion agents, which do not have these disadvantages of the prior art. In particular, there are new amine-free corrosion protection agents desirable, the one as a corrosion inhibiting agent active ingredient based on environmental protection contain renewable raw materials.

Aus EP 0 569 869 sind Lactobionsäureamidgemische bekannt, die durch Umsetzung von Lactobionsäure oder Lactobionsäurederivaten mit einem Fettamingemisch in einem niederen Alkylalkohol hergestellt werden. Auf Grund ihrer grenzflächenaktiven Eigenschaften und ihrem günstigen Schaumverhalten finden sie in Wasch-, Spül- und Reinigungsmittelzubereitungen, in Weichspülmitteln sowie kosmetischen Formulierungen Verwendung.Lactobionic acid amide mixtures are known from EP 0 569 869, by the reaction of lactobionic acid or lactobionic acid derivatives with a fatty amine mixture in a lower Alkyl alcohol can be produced. Because of its surfactant Properties and their favorable foaming behavior can be found in detergent, dishwashing and cleaning agent preparations, in fabric softeners and cosmetic formulations Use.

Eine korrosionsinhibierende Wirkung derartiger Lactobionsäuregemische kann dieser Schrift nicht entnommen werden. A corrosion-inhibiting effect of such lactobionic acid mixtures cannot be found in this document.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, neue Korrosionsschutzmittel zur Verfügung zu stellen.The present invention is based on the object to provide new anti-corrosion agents.

Überraschenderweise wurde nun gefunden, daß Lactobionsäure-N-alkylamide, eine korrosionsinhibierende Wirkung besitzen. Surprisingly, it has now been found that lactobionic acid N-alkylamides, have a corrosion-inhibiting effect.

Gegenstand der Erfindung ist somit die Verwendung von Lactobionsäure-N-alkylamiden als Korrosionsschutzmittel. Bevorzugt werden Lactobionsäure-N-alkylamide, deren über die Amidfunktion gebundene gesättigte oder teilweise ungesättigte Alkylreste eine Kettenlänge von 8 bis 18 Kohlenstoffatomen aufweisen, verwendet.The object of the invention is thus the use of lactobionic acid-N-alkylamides as anti-corrosion agents. Prefers lactobionic acid N-alkylamides, their saturated via the amide function or partially unsaturated alkyl radicals one chain length from Have 8 to 18 carbon atoms used.

Insbesondere werden solche Lactobionsäure-N-alkylamide verwendet welche durch die Umsetzung von Lactobionsäure oder reaktiven Lactobionsäurederivaten, vorzugsweise Lactobionsäurelacton, mit einem primären Fettamingemisch erhalten wurden. Als "primäre Fettamine" werden im Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung primäre Amine bezeichnet, welche einen dem aliphatischen Rest einer Fettsäure entsprechenden aliphatischen Rest enthalten. Fettamine können z.B. technisch aus Fettsäuren erhalten werden, in dem diese zunächst in ihre Nitrile überführt werden, welche anschließend zu Aminen reduziert werden. Bevorzugt werden Fettamingemische eingesetzt, welche aus natürlich vorkommenden Fettsäuregemischen gewonnen werden. Der Anteil an ungesättigten Fettaminen schwankt dabei in diesen Fettamingemischen zwischen ca. 5 und 85 Gew.-%.In particular, such Lactobionic acid-N-alkylamides used which by the Conversion of lactobionic acid or reactive lactobionic acid derivatives, preferably lactobionic acid lactone, with a primary Fat amine mixture were obtained. Be considered "primary fatty amines" designated primary amines in the context of the present invention, which corresponds to the aliphatic residue of a fatty acid contain aliphatic residue. Fatty amines can e.g. can be obtained technically from fatty acids by first are converted into their nitriles, which are then converted into amines be reduced. Fatty amine mixtures are preferably used, which are obtained from naturally occurring fatty acid mixtures will. The proportion of unsaturated fatty amines fluctuates in these fatty amine mixtures between approx. 5 and 85% by weight.

Besonders bevorzugt werden als Korrosionsschutzmittel Lactobionsäure-N-alkylamide aus der Gruppe Lactobionsäure-N-Oleylamid, Lactobionsäure-N-Kokosamid und Lactobionsäure-N-Talgamid verwendet. Diese besonders bevorzugten Lactobionsäure-N-alkylamide können leicht durch die Umsetzung von Lactobionsäure bzw. Lactobionsäurederivat mit den entsprechenden Fettamingemischen hergestellt werden. So wird mit Oleylamin ein Fettamingemisch bezeichnet, welches aus einem aus Sonnenblumenöl und/oder Sojaöl stammenden Fettsäuregemisch gewonnen wurde. Mit Kokosfettamin wird ein entsprechendes sich aus Kokosfett herleitendes Fettamingemisch, mit Talgamin ein entsprechendes sich aus Talg herleitendes Fettamingemisch bezeichnet. Neben gesättigten Fettaminen ist in diesen natürlichen Fettamingemischen immer ein gewisser Anteil ungesättigter Fettamine vorhanden. Aus Sonnenblumenöl gewonnenes Oleylamin enthält z.B. ca. 14 Gew.-% an gesättigten Fettaminen mit 12 bis 18 Kohlenstoffatomen und ca. 85 Gew.-% an ungesättigten Fettaminen mit 14 bis 18 Kohlenstoffatomen. Aus Sojaöl gewonnenes Oleylamin (auch Sojaamin genannt) enthält z.B. ca. 16 Gew.-% an gesättigten C16-Fettaminen, ca. 15 Gew.-% an gesättigten C18-Fettaminen sowie einen Anteil von ca. 63 Gew.-% an ungesättigten Fettaminen mit 14 bis 18 Kohlenstoffatomen. Kokosfettamin enthält z.B. ca. 50 Gew.-% an gesättigten C12-Fettaminen, ca. 18 Gew.-% an gesättigten C14-Fettaminen ca. einen Anteil von ca. 7 Gew.-% an ungesättigten C18-Fettaminen. Talgamin enthält z.B. ca. 29 Gew.-% an gesättigten C16-Fettaminen, ca. 23 Gew.-% an gesättigten C18-Fettaminen sowie einen Anteil von ca. 42 Gew.-% an ungesättigten Fettaminen mit 14 bis 18 Kohlenstoffatomen.Lactobionic acid-N-alkylamides from the group lactobionic acid-N-oleylamide, lactobionic acid-N-coconut amide and lactobionic acid-N-tallow amide are particularly preferably used as corrosion inhibitors.

So oleylamine is a fatty amine mixture that is derived from a fatty acid mixture derived from sunflower oil and / or soybean oil. A corresponding fatty amine mixture derived from coconut fat is referred to as coconut fatty amine and a corresponding fatty amine mixture derived from tallow is described as tallow amine. In addition to saturated fatty amines, a certain proportion of unsaturated fatty amines is always present in these natural fatty amine mixtures. Oleylamine obtained from sunflower oil contains, for example, about 14% by weight of saturated fatty amines with 12 to 18 carbon atoms and about 85% by weight of unsaturated fatty amines with 14 to 18 carbon atoms. Oleylamine (also called soy amine) obtained from soybean oil contains, for example, approximately 16% by weight of saturated C 16 fatty amines, approximately 15% by weight of saturated C 18 fatty amines and a proportion of approximately 63% by weight unsaturated fatty amines with 14 to 18 carbon atoms.

Die nachfolgenden Beispiele sollen die Erfindung weiter erläutern, ohne sie jedoch in ihrem Umfang zu begrenzen.The following examples are intended to further illustrate the invention explain, but without limiting their scope.

BeispieleExamples 1. Herstellung von Lactobionsäure-N-Oleylamid:1. Preparation of lactobionic acid-N-oleylamide:

500 g Lactobionsäurelacton wurden in einem Mörser fein gerieben und dann portionsweise bei 50 bis 60°C in 1,6 l Methanol gelöst. In diese Lösung wurden 324,4 g geschmolzenes Oleylamin unter Rühren zugegeben. Diese gesamte, noch klare Lösung wurde 1 Stunde bei Raumtemperatur gerührt und anschließend für ca. 12 Stunden stehengelassen. Es fiel ein weißer Niederschlag aus, der abfiltriert, mit Methanol gewaschen und dann im Vakuumtrockenschrank bei 30°C getrocknet wurde. Die Ausbeute betrug 93 Gew.-% Lactobionsäure-N-Oleylamid, bezogen auf Lactobionsäurelacton.500 g of lactobionic acid lactone were finely ground in a mortar and then dissolved in portions in 1.6 l of methanol at 50 to 60 ° C. Into this solution were added 324.4 g of molten oleylamine added with stirring. This entire, still clear solution was made Stirred for 1 hour at room temperature and then for approx. Let stand for 12 hours. A white precipitate fell out which is filtered off, washed with methanol and then in a vacuum drying cabinet was dried at 30 ° C. The yield was 93% by weight of lactobionic acid-N-oleylamide, based on lactobionic acid lactone.

Wie beispielhaft für Lactobionsäure-N-Oleylamid beschrieben, erfolgte auch die Herstellung der übrigen Lactobionsäureamide.As described by way of example for lactobionic acid N-oleylamide, the other lactobionic acid amides were also prepared.

2. Bestimmung der Korrosionsschutzeigenschaften:2. Determination of the corrosion protection properties:

Die Korrosionsschutzeigenschaften wurden gemäß der DIN-Norm 51360, Teil 2, durchgeführt.The anti-corrosion properties were determined in accordance with the DIN standard 51360, part 2.

Graugußspäne (Werkstoff DIN 1691-GG30 von etwa 5 mm x mm-Größe) wurden mit Petrolether gewaschen, durch ein Drahtsieb gesiebt und bei ca. 105°C im Trockenschrank getrocknet. Nach der Trocknung wurde es vermieden, die Späne mit der Hand zu berühren.Gray cast iron chips (material DIN 1691-GG30 of approx. 5 mm x mm size) were washed with petroleum ether, through a wire sieve sieved and dried at about 105 ° C in a drying cabinet. After drying was avoided by hand touch.

In eine Petri-Schale wurde ein Rundfilter aus Filtrierpapier (Durchmesser 40 mm) gelegt und mit 2 g (± 0,1 g) der getrockneten Späne gleichmäßig bestreut. Anschließend wurden die Späne mit 2 ml der zu untersuchenden Lösung mittels einer Vollpipette gleichmäßig benetzt. Es wurde der Deckel der Petri-Schale aufgelegt und die Petri-Schale für 2 Stunden bei Raumtemperatur stehengelassen. Dann wurden die Späne vom Rundfilter entfernt, das Rundfilter unter fließendem Wasser abgespült, in Aceton etwa für 5 Sekunden geschwenkt und bei Raumtemperatur getrocknet. Sofort anschließend an das Reinigen und Trocknen des Rundfilters wurde der Korrosionsgrad der Korrosionsabzeichnungen auf dem Rundfilter durch Sichtprüfung festgestellt. In der nachfolgenden Tabelle wird der ermittelte Korrosionsgrad angegeben. Zur besseren Beurteilung wurde ein Versuch nur mit reinem Leitungswasser ohne weiteren Zusatz durchgeführt. Es wurde jeweils die Korrosionsschutzwirkung für eine mit Leitungswasser angesetzte 3%ige wäßrige Lösung von Oleylamid, Kokosamid und Talgamid ermittelt. Zusätzlich wurde noch eine weitere Versuchsreihe durchgeführt, bei der der pH-Wert mit Triethanolamin auf pH 9,0 eingestellt wurde. Korrosionsgrad Wasser starke Korrosion Oleylamid Spuren von Korrosion 3 Gew.-% in H2O Kokosamid keine Korrosion 3 Gew.-% in H2O Talgamid keine Korrosion 3 Gew.-% in H2O Korrosionsgrad Wasser, pH 9,0 starke Korrosion Oleylamid, pH 9,0 leichte Korrosion 3 Gew.-% in H2O Talgamid, pH 9,0 leichte Korrosion 3 Gew.-% in H2O Kokosamid, pH 9,0 mäßige Korrosion 3 Gew.-% in H2O A round filter made of filter paper (diameter 40 mm) was placed in a Petri dish and evenly sprinkled with 2 g (± 0.1 g) of the dried chips. The chips were then uniformly wetted with 2 ml of the solution to be examined using a full pipette. The lid of the Petri dish was put on and the Petri dish was left to stand for 2 hours at room temperature. Then the chips were removed from the round filter, the round filter rinsed under running water, swirled in acetone for about 5 seconds and dried at room temperature. Immediately after cleaning and drying the round filter, the degree of corrosion of the corrosion marks on the round filter was determined by visual inspection. The degree of corrosion determined is given in the table below. For better assessment, a test was only carried out with pure tap water without any additional additives. The corrosion protection effect for a 3% aqueous solution of oleylamide, coconut amide and tallow amide prepared with tap water was determined in each case. In addition, a further series of experiments was carried out in which the pH was adjusted to pH 9.0 using triethanolamine. Degree of corrosion water severe corrosion Oleylamide Traces of corrosion 3% by weight in H 2 O Coconut amide no corrosion 3% by weight in H 2 O Tallow amide no corrosion 3% by weight in H 2 O Degree of corrosion Water, pH 9.0 severe corrosion Oleylamide, pH 9.0 slight corrosion 3% by weight in H 2 O Talgamide, pH 9.0 slight corrosion 3% by weight in H 2 O Coconut amide, pH 9.0 moderate corrosion 3% by weight in H 2 O
