Oxygen Remover Scavanger Plus
SKU: RXSOL-50-5022-025
Oxygen Remover Scavanger Plus is a catalysed liquid solution of Hydrazine and diethylhydroxylamine (DEHA). Its volatile properties ensure distribution throughout the boiler and condensate system, and hence protects against oxygen corrosion in all parts of the system. The product also provides the required conditions for the establishment of a passivating layer of magnetite on all inner surfaces. RXSOL-50-5022-025 is a low toxicity product, suitable for high, medium and low pressure boiler systems.
Application
RXSOL-50-5022-025 The objective is to maintain a hydrazine residual between 0.05-0.2 ppm depending on operating pressure and boiler designe. Actual consumption is determined under operating conditions. A normal dosage is approximately 1 ltr. per day, depending of system layout.
Hydrazine is a convenient reductant because the by-products are typically nitrogen gas and water. Thus, it is used as an ANTIOXIDANT, an oxygen scavenger, and a corrosion inhibitor in water boilers and heating systems.
Hydrazine is mainly used as a foaming agent in preparing polymer foams

The establishment of protective metal oxide lay-ers through the use of reducing agents (such as hydrazine, hydroquinone, and other oxygen scavengers) is known as metal passivation or metal conditioning. Although "metal passivation" refers to the direct reaction of the compound with the metal oxide and "metal conditioning" more broadly refers to the promotion of a protective surface, the two terms are frequently used interchangeably.
The reaction of hydrazine and hydroquinone, which leads to the passivation of iron-based metals, proceeds according to the following reactions:
N2H4 + 6Fe2O3 ® 4Fe3O4 + 2H2O + N2 hydrazine hematite magnetite water nitrogenC6H4(OH)2 + 3Fe2O3 ® 2Fe3O4 + C6H4O2 + H2O hydroquinone hematite magnetite benzoquinone water
Similar reactions occur with copper-based metals:
N2H4 + 4CuO ® 2Cu2O + 2H2O + N2 hydrazine cupric oxide cuprous oxide water nitrogenC6H6O2 + 2CuO ® Cu2O + C6H4O2 + H2O hydroquinone cupric oxide cuprous oxide benzoquinone water
Magnetite and cuprous oxide form protective films on the metal surface. Because these oxides are formed under reducing conditions, removal of the dissolved oxygen from boiler feedwater and condensate promotes their formation. The effective application of oxygen scavengers indirectly leads to passivated metal surfaces and less metal oxide transport to the boiler whether or not the scavenger reacts directly with the metal surface.
