USE OF QUATERNARY AMMONIUM CARBONATES AND BICARBONATES AS ANTICORROSIVE AGENTS, METHOD FOR INHIBITING CORROSION AND ANTICORROSIVE COATINGS USING THESE AGENTS

摘要

Disclosed are quaternary ammonium carbonates, bicarbonates, and mixtures thereof as anti-corrosive agents. The invention relates to a method for inhibiting the corrosion of metal surfaces by applying a composition containing one or more quaternary ammonium carbonate or bicarbonate. The disclosure is also directed to anti-corrosive coating for metal substrates containing these compounds, to metal substrates having these anticorrosive coatings, and to aqueous cleaning solutions containing these compounds.
