Whats up with the Aquaduct?

This worries me.

1. its a phosphate based liquid which is recomended to avoid in water cooling if i remember correctly.

2. The additional uses of the chemical even tho its small:
"Phosphonates derived from phosphorous (phosphonic) acid are employed in the applications of scale Inhibition, sequestration, dispersion and corrosion inhibition in addition to the main applications of agricultural chemicals such as fertilizers, pesticides, and soil conditioners."

Thats taken directly from the link.

You must have missed this part:

"Phosphonates offer a wide range of sequestrants to control metal ions in aqueous systems. By forming stable water soluble complexes with multivalent metal ions, phosphonates prevent undesired interaction by blocking normal reactivity of metal ions." IOW, it prevents corrosion in a system that has multiple metals in it.

I think you should look up the words you don't understand. Your link for Water Wetter shows a miscible rating of 25 C. That means the stuff falls out of solution below 25 C. That means at under 25 C the Water Wetter chemical is floating around in your loop at full strength. No wonder that was dangerous to use in water cooling systems.

Young padawan I know it is hard to let go of what you thought works best in an automotive cooling system, but this ain't an automotive cooling system.
