Efficiency of generic and proprietary inhibitors in mitigating Corrosion of Carbon Steel in Chloride-Sulfate Environments

The efficiency of generic and proprietary corrosion inhibitors (based on nitrite, amine carboxylate or amino alcohol) in corrosion mitigation of carbon steel, which is exposed to concrete solutions with different amounts of chloride as well as sulfate, was studied. The corrosion protection provided by the selected corrosion inhibitors was investigated by performing a potentiodynamic polarization study. In addition, the surface morphological...
