Abstract

Corrosion protection of metals and alloys in many industrial products is increasingly important from an economic and environmental point of view. Numerous chemical compounds have long been known as substances that influence the kinetics of electrode processes on which corrosion depends. Some of these compounds are found to retard electrode reactions and are termed inhibitors. The ability of the selected thiocyanate compounds as corrosion inhibitors for aluminium metal have been measured. The rate of corrosion was measured using weight loss, gas evolution and electrochemical techniques.
