Abstract

A composition and method is disclosed for inhibiting the corrosion of metals in contact with an aqueous system capable of corroding the metal. The inventive composition contains a substantially water-soluble polymer of an acidic amino acid and at least one water-soluble salt of molybdenum or zinc. The composition is substantially non-toxic and environmentally acceptable and is supplied in a corrosion-inhibition amount to the otherwise metal-corrosive aqueous system.
