Abstract
A study has been made of the effect of sodium nitrite on the corrosion of steel in water. The test methods included total and alternate immersion, a recirculation apparatus and potential measurements. The concentration of sodium nitrite required to inhibit steel corrosion depends on the conditions of motion and temperature. The inhibiting effect of sodium nitrite can be interpreted by solution potential measurements. The mechanism of inhibition is probably the formation of a protective oxide coating.
