Abstract

This research investigates protective effects of vapour phase corrosion inhibitors (VpCI) tested in laboratory conditions. Such tests are required to control the production quality and to provide for high-quality protection of products during exploitation. There are three different tests run to obtain results on effectiveness of protective effect of VpCIs (Razor Blade Test, Water Drop Test and VIA Test). Each test differs in its defined performance procedure, as well as in evaluation of the obtained results, yet all three tests confirmed that vapour phase corrosion inhibitors provide adequate protection of the material exposed to an aggressive atmosphere. Therefore, it is justified to use vapour corrosion inhibitors as a protection mechanism when designing surface protection technology.
