Oil-soluble corrosion inhibitors of different chemical classes and certain combined inhibitors have been investigated to determine their influence on specific forms of corrosion attack and corrosive-mechanical wear. Data are presented to illustrate the influence of combined inhibitors on the functional properties of oils in test-stand units and in full-scale carburetor and diesel engines in various types of automotive vehicles. It is shown that of all the inhibitors investigated, the best results in terms of the entire set of properties are shown by molybdenum-containing surfactants. Theoretical principles are set forth as guidelines in selecting components for corrosion inhibitors of the third generation.
