I. Industry Background: Inter‑Process Rusting — An Underestimated Cost Black Hole in Manufacturing
During transfer and storage between machining, cleaning and assembly, metal components are often exposed to humid air for periods ranging from several hours to weeks. Ferrous metals such as steel and cast iron are highly prone to rust. Rust impairs visual appearance, damages mating‑surface precision and triggers failures in subsequent machining and assembly. Consequences include re‑washing rework or full‑batch scrap. Rust‑induced rework constitutes a major hidden loss for mechanical manufacturers.
Traditional rust‑prevention solutions mostly adopt rust‑preventive oil. Although offering long‑term protection, oily films are sticky and require thorough degreasing before downstream processes, bringing complicated workflows and higher costs. Oil residues also contaminate cleaning bath fluids. For inter‑process short‑term protection lasting merely several days, anti‑rust oil provides excessive protection at considerable expense.
PP‑350 is a water‑based rust inhibitor engineered for inter‑process short‑term rust prevention. Dominated by organic amines, it is water‑dilutable and delivers rust‑protection for days to weeks. It forms a transparent protective film without changing part appearance or dimensions, facilitating subsequent inspection and machining. For most workpieces, residues can be removed simply by clean water or alkaline cleaning agents prior to next processes. Water‑diluted, non‑toxic, odor‑free, non‑flammable and non‑explosive, it achieves low overall operating cost.
II. Product Description
PP‑350 is a water‑soluble rust inhibitor based on organic amines. It functions as short‑term rust inhibitor for steel and iron, or as a booster to enhance the rust‑preventive performance of cleaners. Widely deployed across manufacturing cleaning workflows, it provides reliable protection for ferrous metals and effectively extends rust‑protection duration.
Diluted with water according to required protection duration and storage conditions for cost‑effective operation. A transparent protective film forms on metal surfaces without altering appearance or dimensions for convenient inspection and further processing. Residues can be readily removed by clean water or alkaline cleaners for most parts before subsequent operations. It is applicable to automotive components, machined parts, standard fasteners, molds, hand tools, bearings, metal sheets and tubes, for cleaning and rust‑protection of central‑system machine tools, standalone machines and contaminated machine‑tool zones.
