Corrosion Inhibitors can sustainably prevent oxidation and the formation of rust on metallic materials. Corrosion inhibitors typically consist of polar chemical compounds that form a protective layer on metal surfaces to protect them from corrosion. By forming this barrier, they prevent moisture, oxygen and other corrosive substances from coming into contact with the metal.
Corrosion inhibitors in the lubricant industry are used in a wide range of applications. In the automotive industry, for example, corrosion inhibitors are used in engine oils, coolants and other fluids to protect the sensitive parts of the engine from rust and corrosion. Corrosion inhibitors are also crucial in the aerospace industry to protect aircraft and spacecraft from the extreme conditions of flight and the space environment. Furthermore, corrosion inhibitors are used in hydraulic systems, cooling circuits, lubricants for machinery and equipment as well as in marine and offshore applications. Their use not only helps to extend the service life of machines, but also to reduce downtime and maintenance costs.
