Introduction:
Corrosion, the gradual deterioration of metal surfaces due to chemical reactions with the environment, poses a significant threat to infrastructure and assets across various industries. From bridges and pipelines to vehicles and machinery, metal assets are vulnerable to corrosion-induced damage, leading to economic losses, safety hazards, and environmental concerns. In response, corrosion inhibitors have emerged as essential tools for safeguarding infrastructure and assets against environmental degradation. This article explores the role of corrosion inhibitors in protecting critical infrastructure and assets, highlighting their mechanisms, applications, and impact on corrosion prevention.
