Benzyltrimethylammonium Chloride or BTAC can be used as phase transfer catalyst in many biphasic organic transitions used in the agrochemicals, polymer and pharmaceutical industries.
BTAC can also be used as a corrosion inhibitor in oilfield. Corrosion is in many stages of a well’s lifecycle, from drilling to stimulation through production. Proactive treatment with BTAC can greatly reduce cost of operations.
