Unprotected bare metal surfaces lose corrosion, in particular oxidation, which often produces a considerable amount of work surface condition.This is not only a deterioration of the appearance, but often also an impairment of proper function connected.
The extent of corrosion depends essentially on:

• the composition and pretreatment of the materials (particularly corrosive, e.g. malleable or gray cast iron)
• the surface quality of the workpiece (corrosive attack is faster on rough surfaces than on smooth surfaces)
• climatic influencesother external influences
• Corrosion inhibitors such as ANTICORIT from FUCHS serve to protect metallic surfaces against the effects of the atmosphere in the broadest sense and thus prevent the transformation of the metals into their compounds, in particular oxides. 

Basically, a distinction can be made between permanent corrosion protection and temporary corrosion protection.

Permanent corrosion protection offer e.g. paint, galvanic coatings and enamels.
These are difficult to remove by mechanical or special chemical processes. This is often not possible without altering or damaging the metallic surfaces.

ANTICORIT products belong to the group of temporary corrosion inhibitors.
They can be removed relatively easily by solvents or suitable industrial cleaners without damaging the surfaces to be protected. 

It is important that corrosion protection generally has to be optimally compatible with the previous process steps and the products used there.

Our recommendation: the compatible ANTICORIT corrosion inhibitors from the comprehensive corrosion protection program from FUCHS.
