Abstract
Methods of protecting a metallic substrate from corrosion include introducing an aqueous or powder-form composition including at least one corrosion inhibitor into a crevice that traverses one or more layers covering the metallic substrate to deliver the composition via the crevice into contact with a surface of the metallic substrate. The corrosion inhibitors present in the composition bond to the surface of the metallic substrate, resulting in formation of a film on the surface of the metallic substrate. This film protects the surface of the metallic substrate against corrosion.
