Even today, water is often transported in metal pipes or systems. The simpler the iron is all the greater the risk of corrosion. The definition of corrosion is an (adverse) reaction of materials with substances in their environment. In the case of iron, this reaction is indicated, for example, if rust. The reasons for this are varied and corrosion are covered in detail in the literature, we will not go into at this place.

Merus yields reliable and reproducible results, where the less complicated reasons for corrosion between iron and water are obvious. This simple reasons are either stagnant or water that is low in minerals, or unsaturated. Corrosion by galvanic couples, bases or acescent liquids will be moderated, at least by Merus in most cases and it can even completely set when certain favorable combinations on hand. But such complicated applications require thorough technical review, we are your questions by e-mail to answer. Merus perceives corrosion in pipes and machines as the most pressing problem of our customers worldwide. Damage caused by corrosion of the main reasons for expensive replacement investment.

Latest results from the field show, for example a reduction in the rates of corrosion in oil pipelines, by more than 10 times.
