Vaselinized Agent as Corrosion Inhibitor

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Metal rust is one of the reasons why people use paint. In the latter part of the twentieth century, society's growing environmental awareness has presented a new challenge to the paint and coatings industry to deliver covering items that satisfy the needs of makers and shoppers and in the meantime conform to government condition imperatives. These have led to a more significant interest in developing coatings such as those that use water rather than unstable natural mixes in their plan and powdered coatings that are dissolvable free.

METHODS

The researcher used an experimental design that describes the output when certain variables were carefully controlled or manipulated. It is the most appropriate research method for an identifying causal relationship to randomized key features, manipulation of treatment variable, use of the experimental group, an equivalent control group. The researcher observed how the different viscosity, odor, and color of every set-up and how it affect the metal.

RESULTS

The materials used such as petroleum jelly, lanolin, and white vinegar were able to combine in creating a corrosion inhibitor. The petroleum jelly served as the barrier in metal; the lanolin was used as the fragrance, which emits a pleasant smell caused by the white vinegar.

DISCUSSIONS

The result showed the characteristics of petroleum jelly was capable of affecting the mixture to be a corrosion inhibitor; it serves as a durable barrier between the metal and element to stop rust from spreading. The lanolin made it possible as one of the ingredients of a corrosion inhibitor, to emit a pleasant smell rather than the foul odor on it. The three materials used have a significant relationship that vanishes the putrid scent of the product.
