PRODUCT INFORMATION

Cetamine® G900
Surface-Active Corrosion Inhibitor for Closed Cooling and Hot
Water Systems
Product description
Cetamine® G900 is an all-in-one corrosion inhibitor based on a CLOSED SYSTEMS
blend of a surface active Cetamine® Filming Amine (CFA),
alkalizing amines a polymer and copper inhibitor. Cetamine®
G900 prevents corrosion and scaling in closed cooling and hot
water systems by formation of a protective Cetamine® film on
metal surfaces and adjusting the pH-value to the optimal range.

Cetamine® G900 passivates metallic surfaces and provides

exceptional protection throughout the whole system of both all-
ferrous and mixed metallurgy systems.

Cetamine® G900 prevents scale formation due to the stabilizing

and dispersing effect of the CFA and the polymer component.

Application FEATURES & BENEFITS

Cetamine® G900 provides full protection in systems containing
steel, copper and copper alloy installations.
