Principles involved in the electrochemistry of inhibitor action are discussed. Electrical terms are used to explain the inhibiting action of substances and to show what properties are desirable in an inhibitor. The mechanism by which sodium chromate and sodium hexametaphosphate function as inhibitors is discussed in detail.
