A corrosion inhibitor is a chemical that is used in a certain atmosphere, including air or water, to slow down the rate of corrosion of the metal exposed to that atmosphere. Corrosion inhibitor, or CI, is an acronym.
A corrosion inhibitor is a chemical substance that can be added to liquids or gases and is employed to slow down the rate of corrosion of a certain material (often a metal).
The application of a coating to the metal’s surface that serves as a passivation layer and prevents access to the metal’s surface is one way to stop corrosion.
Depending on how they resist corrosion on the metal, corrosion inhibitors can be divided into four broad categories. These kinds include
There are numerous uses for corrosion inhibitors in business, industrial, and process settings. The following list includes a few of these applications.
