Certain metal surfaces are often unable to be effectively contacted with fluids containing hydrofluoric acid due to significant corrosion issues. Titanium and titanium alloy surfaces represent but one example. Corrosion inhibitor compositions comprising boron-hydroxyalkyl(amine) compound(s) can be used to suppress such metal corrosion, including that taking place on titanium and titanium alloy surfaces, particularly those in a wellbore or in fluid communication with a wellbore.

The present invention discloses a process for preparing a dibenzylaminquaternary ammonium salt high-temperature resistant corrosion inhibitor and applications thereof. The preparation process comprises the following steps: (1) Dissolve the amine reagents benzylamine, phenethylamine, morpholine or indole in an organic solvent, slowly add epichlorohydrin dropwise, stir to react at a room temperature for 12-14 hours, and then distill under reduced pressure, and wash to obtain an intermediate I; (2) Dissolve the intermediate I in an organic solvent, add dibenzylamine at a ratio, then add an acid binding agent, warm to 60-80 C. to react for 14 to 16 hours, after cooling to room temperature, perform filtration, extraction and distillation under a reduced pressure to obtain an intermediate II; (3) Dissolve the intermediate II in an organic solvent, add quaternizing reagent at a ratio, then warm to 80-110 C. to react for 12 to 15 hours, after cooling to room temperature, perform filtration, extraction and distillation under a reduced pressure to obtain the dibenzylaminquaternary ammonium salt high-temperature resistant corrosion inhibitor. The process is simple and feasible, and its principle is reliable, and the prepared corrosion inhibitor has good resistance to the acid corrosion of carbon steels in oil-gas wells.
