DEVELOPMENT OF FIRE RESISTANT WATER BASED HYDRAULIC FLUIDS

Abstract

Emphasis centered on improving the corrosion properties of a candidate fire resistant, water based hydraulic fluid. A series of hydroxy alkylene carboxylates have been prepared as potential corrosion inhibitors. In addition, a continuing study was made of the correlation existing between corrosion of control panels in hydraulic systems and bench corrosion tests. Several aromatic ether derivatives are concurrently being evaluated as autoignition improvers. An attempt was also made to alter the structure of the glycol portion of the candidate fluid so that a higher autoignition temperature is attained in the finished formula.
