A method of determining the suitably of corrosion inhibitors, or other additives in the presence of corrosion inhibitor, for a given fluid environment. The method including determining if there is a difference in the presence or level of micelles between a fluid sample to which corrosion inhibitor has been added either alone or to which corrosion inhibitor and at least one additional fluid additive or additives have been added. The method can be used to determine the compatibility of fluid additives.

A repaired oxidation and corrosion resistant coating may comprise a repair material applied to a damaged portion of the oxidation and corrosion resistant coating. The repair material may be free of hexavalent chromium and may be compatible with a plurality of oxidation and corrosion resistant materials that comprise hexavalent chromium. The repair material may be burnished. The oxidation and corrosion resistant coating may comprise hexavalent chromium.

An embodiment provides a method for measuring amines in a solution, including: preparing an indicator-metal complex, wherein the indicator-metal complex comprises an indicator and a metal; introducing the indicator-metal complex to a solution, wherein the solution contains an amount of amine, wherein the amine activates the indicator-metal complex causing a change in fluorescence intensity of the indicator-metal complex; and measuring the amount of amine in the solution by measuring the change in fluorescence intensity of the indicator-metal complex.

A composition which serves to clean and create of a protective barrier on a wide variety of materials to prevent the deterioration and degradation caused by exposure to moisture and sun over time.

Methods and systems for detecting and quantifying film forming amines in water systems are described. Water containing a film forming amine is combined with a fluorescent dye, the pH of the water is reduced, and then the fluorescence signal of the fluorescent dye is measured. The fluorescence signal is indicative of the amount of film forming amine in the water, and can be used to quantify the amount of film forming amine and control the amount of film forming amine that is introduced into the water system.
