Abstract
Corrosion inhibitor compositions are provided that can include a mixture of one or more alkaline earth metals, one or more organic phosphates, one or more inorganic phosphates, optionally a dispersant, and hydroxyphosphono acetic acid and/or salts thereof and/or derivatives of hydroxyphosphono acetic acid and/or salts thereof. Methods of mitigating or inhibiting corrosion of metal surfaces are also disclosed. The methods can include the steps of adding a corrosion inhibitor composition as described in the present disclosure to a medium in contact with the metal surface and optionally to the metal surface before it is contacted by the medium.
