Abstract

A vapor phase corrosion inhibitor formulation comprising a finely divided anhydrous molybdate selected from the group consisting of anhydrous sodium molybdate, anhydrous ammonium dimolybdate, and anhydrous amine molybdates having the structural formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is an aliphatic hydrocarbon having up to 7 carbon atoms, and wherein R.sub.2 is either hydrogen or an aliphatic hydrocarbon having up to 7 carbon atoms with these anhydrous molybdates being provided in admixtures with sodium nitrite and benzotriazole. The formulations of the present invention have been found to be particularly desirable as a vapor phase corrosion inhibitor when in contact with the environs of metals susceptible to corrosion including, for example, iron, steel, copper, and alloys such as alloys of iron, copper, and the like. In a preferred embodiment, the amine-molybdate compounds are those amine-molybdates derived from dicyclohexylamine, 2-ethylhexylamine, and cyclohexylamine. The resultant amine-molybdates have vapor pressures which contribute to appropriate protection against corrosion, as well as a continued or ongoing availability of that protection, and when provided in admixture with s…
