Abstract:
Marine corrosion is a kind of material failure phenomenon caused by the interaction between metal structure and marine environment. As an efficient and simple anti-corrosion method, gaseous corrosion inhibitor can have a good inhibition effect on marine atmospheric corrosion. How to effectively use the compound environment-friendly vapor phase corrosion inhibitor has been widely and efficiently applied in the field of marine atmospheric corrosion, which has become the key to prevent marine atmospheric corrosion. In this paper, we introduce the development history, inhibition mechanism, classification, compounding and structure-activity correlation of vapor phase corrosion inhibitors, and the research prospect of environment-friendly vapor phase corrosion inhibitors in marine environment is prospected.

Vapor Pressure Lowering
Dissolving a nonvolatile substance in volatile liquid results in a lowering of the liquid’s vapor pressure. This phenomenon can be explained by considering the effect of added solute molecules on the liquid's vaporization and condensation processes. To vaporize, solvent molecules must be present at the surface of the solution....
