Corrosion & Scale Inhibition

Water System Performance Requires Control, Not Guesswork

Improve inhibitor performance and stability across system conditions

The LOCUS ADVANTAGE

Reduces deposit buildup on critical surfaces

Lowers maintenance frequency and operating cost

Extends equipment life and performance

Corrosion and scale inhibition is critical to maintaining system efficiency, controlling maintenance costs, and extending equipment life. Performance depends on maintaining clean surfaces and stable chemistry under variable conditions. Locus’ Amphi® biosurfactants enhance interfacial control to support more consistent corrosion and scale inhibition across industrial water systems.

The Challenge

System risk from weak corrosion and scale control

Water systems operate under conditions that drive corrosion and scale formation. Variability in chemistry, temperature, and flow can destabilize treatment programs, leading to deposit buildup, reduced heat transfer, and increased system stress. When interfacial control is weak, performance declines quickly, increasing maintenance frequency and operating costs.

Biosurfactants engineered for industrial water systems

Amphi® biosurfactants improve interfacial behavior in water systems, supporting deposit control, corrosion inhibition, and system stability. Their small micelle size enables better surface interaction, helping maintain clean heat exchange surfaces and consistent treatment performance under variable conditions.
