·      Highest concentration

·      Easy to use

·      Stable

·      Freeze-thaw recoverable

NYACOL JL Series of antimony and NYACOL SN15 tin containing materials are all water based passivation additives offered by the Nyacol Nano Technologies, Inc. Both series of products are designed to improve the performance of the fluid catalytic cracker units (FCCU) in oil refineries.

Metal Passivation

Contaminant metals, such as nickel and vanadium, in an oil stream can deposit themselves on the catalyst in fluid catalytic cracker units. These contaminants have the detrimental effects of reducing catalyst activity, decreasing the yield of gasoline, and promoting catalyst attrition. Passivation additives such as our JL series of antimony pentoxide and SN15 (tin oxide) suppress these detrimental effects and thereby extend the useful life of the catalyst and improve refinery yields and capacity.

NYACOL metal passivation additives are easily injected into the FCCU feed stream. Because NYACOL sols are extremely stable, mixing equipment is not required to keep the passivating metal oxides in suspension. All that is required to begin metal passivation is a small metering pump. Also, these water-based sols are very easy to dilute to the required concentration.

NYACOL® SN15

Tin suppresses the detrimental effects of vanadium in the oil stream. NYACOL SN15 is also water based and hence easy and safe to handle. Again, because of particle size and advanced colloid chemistry, the efficiency and cost effectiveness are enhanced.

NYACOL® JL Series Antimony Pentoxide Colloidal Dispersions

Antimony suppresses the detrimental effects of nickel in the oil stream. We offer the broadest line of antimony pentoxide products for passivation in the industry. They range from a 38 wt% to a 20 wt% antimony metal content material. We also offer a freeze protected (to -10°F) grade for cold weather operations.

All of our NYACOL JL products are water based therefore they are safer and easier to handle than organo-antimony products. Because of particle size and advanced colloid chemistry, the surface activity efficiency and cost effectiveness of our JL product series are enhanced.

NYACOL® Passivation Additive Advantages

NYACOL® passivation additives have a number of important advantages which should be considered when evaluating your passivation requirements.

1.     NYACOL offers antimony pentoxide passivation additives in high concentrations. This saves the user freight and storage costs. The small particle size enhances both surface area efficiency and cost effectiveness.

2.     NYACOL JL539EG antimony pentoxide is also offered as a 39% concentrate in ethylene glycol/water solution. This product is freeze-protected to -10°F(-24°C), an important consideration for cold climate refineries.

3.     NYACOL antimony pentoxide and tin oxide products are freeze/thaw recoverable. This means if either product should freeze, and upon thawing, simple mixing will redisperse the precipitated metal oxide back to a stable sol.

4.     Since all NYACOL passivation products are water based, they are safer and easier to handle than organic based systems.

5.     NYACOL tin oxide is offered at a particle size of 10 - 15nm, the smallest tin oxide particle in the industry.
