| Description |
Corrosion inhibitors are chemicals that react with a metallic surface or the corrosive environment to which metallic
surface is exposed, giving the metal surface a certain level of protection. Most of the corrosion inhibitors, used in
petroleum industry, are either inorganic or organic compounds depending on the type of corrosion problems faced
by the specific system. The composition and structure of the organic corrosion inhibitors change according to the
applications in the petroleum industry which vary from purely aqueous to hydrocarbon rich media. Present article
highlights the utility of the corrosion inhibitors used during hydrocarbon handling which are either nitrogen containing
organic compounds or their derivatives. Th~ action of specific corrosion inhibitors used in hydrocarbon handling
systems has been explained on the basis of experimental work carried out in authors' laboratory. The
emphasis has been laid on the crude oil characteristics, nitrogen containing organic corrosion inhibitors, hydrophobic
interaction during inhibition and the dependence of the inhibitor performance on the type of the test
method used for its evaluation.
