Cm352 Corrosion: Inhibitor
: Interlocking hardware interfaces suffer from fretting corrosion. CM352 seals these micro-gaps effectively. Mechanics of Protection: How It Prevents Failure Functional Action Benefit to Aircraft Moisture Displacement Repels water molecules out of surface micro-pores. Prevents the formation of galvanic corrosion cells. Barrier Film Generation Cures into a resilient, thin-film protective layer. Resists high-velocity airflow and centrifugal forces. High Capillary Penetration Creeps naturally into fasteners and tight tolerances. Protects hidden, non-visible hardware assemblies. Application and Maintenance Protocols
Like most industrial chemical concentrates, CM352 must be handled with appropriate care.
In closed chiller circuits and low-pressure heating systems, water is recirculated continuously. Over time, dissolved oxygen can cause severe pitting corrosion. CM352 is ideal for these environments because it does not readily degrade under continuous thermal cycling and provides years of protection with minimal replenishment. Oil and Gas Production

Unlike some surfactant-heavy inhibitors, CM352 is formulated to minimize the risk of creating stubborn oil-water emulsions, ensuring clean separation downstream.
If you choose the wrong inhibitor, you protect the steel but sacrifice the copper. CM352 uses a synergistic blend of (for copper/silver) and film-forming amines (for ferrous metals). It lays down a microscopic, one-molecule-thick film that separates the water from the metal surface—without clogging valves or reducing heat transfer. Prevents the formation of galvanic corrosion cells
Chilled water loops and low-pressure hot water heating networks are prone to stagnant conditions and oxygen ingress. CM352 provides long-lasting, stable protection that does not degrade under constant thermal cycling. Industrial Cooling Towers

Before pipelines or pressure vessels are commissioned, they undergo hydrostatic testing with water. If left untreated, residual hydrotest water causes rapid internal corrosion. Adding CM352 to the test water ensures the internal surfaces remain pristine during the testing phase and subsequent dry lay-up periods. Advantages of Using CM352
Implementing CM352 within an asset integrity program offers several distinct operational benefits:
