Corrosion Inhibitors
At A Glance
Corrosion occurs when water enters the lubricant system. This can be counteracted by the use of corrosion inhibitors. In addition, they deactivate the metal surface thus ensuring that lubricant degradation processes are not catalyzed. Corrosion inhibitors can protect ferrous metal surfaces by surface adsorption, changing the interfacial properties and neutralizing acidic species.
