Versatic™ Acid 10 is a synthetic, highly branched
tertiary carboxylic acid which provides excellent ferrous
corrosion inhibition properties when formulated as Oxygen
an amino alcohol salt in semi-synthetic and synthetic Atom
metal working fluids. Versatic™ Acid 10 offers superior
corrosion protection to alternative long-chain dicarboxylic
acids. The high resistance to bacterial growth reduces
