Carboxylic acids, particularly formic and acetic are linked to the premature failure of heating, ventilation, air conditioning systems due localised corrosion known as "ant-nest corrosion." This study examines oxygen-free copper tubes exposed acids (5, 10, 50, 100 ppm) for 20, 40, 60, 80 days. Results revealed that acid causes higher weight loss more aggressive than acid. Cross-sectional analysis showed deep corrosion" structures from acid, contrasting with shallow pits Cyclic voltammetry...
