Questions the Aqueous Calculator Can Help You Answer
The Aqueous Calculator Allows You to Calculate
Left: the CO₂ solubility in an aqueous solution containing 100 g/L of NaCl at a CO₂ partial pressure of 1 bar. Right: the corresponding impact on solution pH.
Predefined settings in the Aqueous Calculation Template allow for fast, accurate corrosion analysis.
Databases
We recommend users use the Aqueous Solution Database (TCAQ4), which was developed to be fully optimized for the Aqueous Calculator. Benefits include, for example, that when using TCAQ4, there is no need to append gas or solid phases because the calculator handles everything automatically. The Aqueous Corrosion Calculator can also be used with TCAQ3, AQS2 or the free PAQ2 database, but it might require appending other databases containing, for example, metallic, oxide and hydroxide phases.
