Hydrazine, greater protection for boiler systems I n power stations and industrial steam plants, the use of hydrazine to control oxygen corrosion is now well established. Published reports of experience in this country as well as abroad indicate the efficiency of hydrazine treatment to: (1) remove trace oxygen from feed water, (2) safeguard superheater tubes in steam generating plants before they go into operation, (3) protect idle boilers. I n boiler water, hydrazine reacts rapidly with residual oxygen to eliminate all traces of this dissolved corrosive gas. nw^yw-ws;

Through greatly diversified research, more and more new applications of hydrazine are being discovered. I n addition t o its use as a n oxygen scavenger in boiler feed water, hydrazine is a n important component of plant growth regulators, and the basis of a new series of non-corrosive soldering fluxes. As a chemical capable of reacting with a wide variety of both organic and inorganic materials, hydrazine is t h e starting point for countless hydronitrogen compounds. Perhaps you could use the latest information on hydrazine and its many derivatives and how t h e y might apply to your field of interest . . . if so, why not write t o d a y ?
