Abstract

A volatile corrosion inhibitor may be in the form of, or derived from, molasses. Corrosion inhibition activity may be provided by molasses products, including molasses and/or any derivative product generated therefrom. Example molasses products include concentrated molasses, dehydrated molasses, molasses distillates or pot bottoms from distillation, extracted fractions of molasses, molasses fractions prepared by precipitation or membrane separation, and molasses residues remaining after removal of additional sugar or other targeted compounds. In one embodiment, the molasses-based corrosion inhibitor may be derived from sugar beet molasses.
