5-Methyl-1H-benzotriazole
CAS 136-85-6
A corrosion inhibitor does not need to form a thick coating. Sometimes protection begins with a molecular layer only atoms thick.
5-Methyl-1H-benzotriazole (CAS 136-85-6) shows corrosion protection at molecular scale: a nitrogen-rich heterocycle adsorbs at the metal-water boundary and changes the electrochemical environment.
