•^g&&iaL The use of Formaldehyde to inhibit corrosion in oil wells is a fasl g r o w i n g e c o n o m i c a l practice t o d a y . C e l a n e s e * F o r m a l d e h y d e , 2 5 % by weight, has been found to be remark ably effective in inhibiting sulfide corrosion in w e l l s w h e n m a i n t a i n e d in approximately 100 PPM in the brine produced. Field trials indicate this treatment decreases corrosion nearly 100 per cent. It assures longer life to rods and tubing, and therefore less shutdown time. Its great versatility, high order of chem ical activity, low cost and ready avail ability place Formaldehyde high on the list of probables when new products and methods are studied. To many in the chemical field, Formal dehyde means Celanese — one of the nation's largest producers, with produc tion and shipping facilities geared to meet exacting requirements. Special Celanese storage facilities in Corpus Christi, Texas, and New Haven, Connecticut, insure q u a l i t y control and efficient service. In the Celanese Research Laboratories at Clarkwood, Texas, process improvements and new Formaldehyde products are under con tinual development.
