This research includes a study of the problem of corrosion in petroleum industry which decaying inthe body of the Iraqi economy, and it is Non-controlled accurately and resorting to toggle mechanismand import of machinery and equipment, which cost the country large sums of money.Four Solutions of gasoline distillates and toluene was prepared and attended the five types ofsolvents, by taking 100 ml of each distilled and dissolved (30) grams of material polystyrene (cork),(available, cheap and that its presence is causing pollution to the environment), then used 5 ml of aproduce mixture in a different rates mixing of distillates and toluene. Solutions have been tested onfifteen models of copper pipes for cooling devices are processed for the study after welded andpainted and placed at the area Baba gurgur region in the North Oil Company-Iraq as an affected areagases that cause corrosion of copper pipes in the cooling devices, the mixture of number (4) has beenshown a very good resistance for corrosion after nine months from the time of exposure to the gas.
