Cola® Cor 232 is a low foaming amine carboxylate that is extremely eff ective in inhibiting the attack of ferrous metal by aqueous solutions in synthetic metalworking formulations. When blended with other materials to raise the pH, it becomes a very eff ective corrosion inhibitor in aqueous solution. Cola® Cor 232 may also be used for alkaline cleaners.

Chemical Name: Triethanolamine (TEA)

Functions: Anti-Stain Agent, Corrosion Inhibitor

CAS Number: 102-71-6

End Uses: Alkaline Cleaners

Synonyms: 2-(Bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino)ethanol, 2,2',2''-nitrilotris(ethanol), Nitrilo-2,2',2''-Triethanol, Nitrilotriethanol, TEOA, Triethanolamine, Tris(2-Hydroxyethyl)Amine, Tris(Beta-Hydroxyethyl)Amine, Tris(Β-Hydroxyethyl)Amine, Trolamine

Features & Benefits

Product Highlights
  • Cola® Cor 232 is soluble in water, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, ethylene glycol and water/ alcohol mixtures.
  • Metalworking fluid formulations containing Cola® Cor 232 should be adjusted to pH 8.3 or higher with triethanolamine or other suitable alkanolamines (a mixture of 70% Cola®Cor 232 and 30% TEA solution performs better than Cola®Cor 232 by itself).
  • Cola®Cor 232 is inherently biodegradable.
