Hydrotrope Properties Data - Deteric™ LP
- DeTERIC™ LP is the superior hydrotrope when compared to other high foaming amphoteric surfactants in several electrolytic systems.
- To determine hydrotrope capabilities, a series of cloud point tests were performed with 3% NPE-9 and 2.5% hydrotrope in the electrolytes listed below.

Corrosion Inhibition Properties
Acid Corrosion Protection
- Metal panels were submerged in the acid solutions and placed in sealed jars at room temperature and observed for signs of corrosion.
Hard Water Corrosion Protection
- Metal panels were submerged in hard water (100 ppm as CaCO₃ and 71 ppm as chloride) in sealed jars at room temperature and observed for signs of corrosion over time.
