A Quick Look at Corrosion Inhibitors

According to history and recent instances, there are numerous catastrophic accidents in the industrialised civilization as a result of corrosion. Corrosion is an unavoidable part of life. Metals and alloys must go through a decomposition process, and the environment is always ready to assault and degrade them. Metals have been utilised in every aspect of society since the Industrial revolution. Even if the amount of metal lost is minimal, failures of various kinds and the need for costly replacements may arise. Corrosion is important for three key reasons: economics, safety, and conservation. Corrosion engineers, with the help of corrosion scientists, are working to reduce material losses, as well as the associated economic losses, caused by corrosion of pipelines, tanks, metal components of machines, ships, bridges, and marine structures, among other things.

This book explains the many forms of corrosion inhibitors as well as the most recent results, and it will help both newcomers and postgraduate students. The book's content is presented in a simple and concise manner. There are six chapters in this book. The purpose of this book is to introduce you to some basic concepts.

The first chapter focuses into the origins and consequences of corrosion. In Chapter 2, you'll find about corrosion control approaches, and the subsequent chapters will show you several types of inhibitors like natural, ionic liquids, drugs and polymers.
