Experiments were carried out in <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>neutral aqueous solution containing 100 ppm Cl- at room temperature. The current-potential curves were obtained by potentiostatic (1mV/s) method and the corrosion rates were determined by the extrapolation of the Tafel slope of the cathodic polarization curves method and linear polarization method. In the second part, the inhibitor effect of some one component, binary and ternary inhibitor blends was investigated depending on the temperature (30, 40, 50 <sup>o </sup>C) and pH (5, 7, 9). The inhibitor effects were found to be %95 for solutions containing 50 ppm nitrite. Of all inhibitor systems tried, chromate-molibdate and chromate- nitrite- molibdate was found to be the most effective binary and ternary inhibitor blends, the effectiveness of which is <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>equal to that of sodium chromate, sodium nitrite, sodium molibdate that alone and used at a high level. </span> </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"> <span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">  </span> </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"> <span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">Key Words: Corrosion, Inhibitor, Carbon Steel </span> </p>}, number={3}, publisher={Gazi University}
