Abstract

The present invention provides an improved metal corrosion inhibitor for use in aqueous acid solutions which is relatively non-toxic and inexpensive. The corrosion inhibitor is a mixture comprised of oligomerized aromatic amines prepared by contacting the still bottoms residue produced in the distillation of quinoline from coal tar with oxygen in the presence of a catalyst.
