The use of these materials in light weight applications is widespread and these usages expose them to environments that could be acidic or alkaline. Corrosion inhibitors are chemical compounds (organic or inorganic) added to the corrosive medium to reduce the rate of acidic attack on the composite. The organic compounds adsorb on the metal surface forming a barrier between the metal and the corrosive environment. Some structural features of the organic compounds help them to do so. These include the presence of oxygen, nitrogen or sulphur atoms as well as the presence of double bonds.
