Abstract

VINUTHA, M. R.  and  VENKATESHA, T. V.. Review on Mechanistic Action of Inhibitors on Steel Corrosion in Acidic Media. Port. Electrochim. Acta [online]. 2016, vol.34, n.3, pp.157-184. ISSN 0872-1904.  https://doi.org/10.4152/pea.201603157.

Use of inhibitor is proven as an efficient and widely accepted corrosion prevention method. Corrosion control of steel is an important activity in technical, economic, environmental and safety terms. This article enumerates several types of inhibitors used to combat corrosion in acidic medium. In this paper, literature on corrosion inhibitors has been reviewed and discussions are made on properties and efficiency of inhibitors. (The prominent features of our work on the mechanism of corrosion inhibitors have been highlighted and in a few cases have tried to predict its mechanism).
