A corrosion cell acts as a minia- ture battery. It transfers electrons from the base metal to the surface where they combine with oxygen to form corrosion. Since salt water is an ideal elec- trolyte, the metals most often found aboard ships are perfect targets for this type of damage. Nearly all corrosion inhibitors are sealants which lay on top of corrosion, effectively sealing mois- ture out, but also possibly sealing moisture in. Corrosion Block has a powerful affinity for metal and it shuts down the deepest corrosion cell, the manufacturer said. By doing this, Corrosion Block displaces corrosion-causing electro- lytes and prevents corrosion from starting and cures corrosion in progress.

Magnakote rust preventative was developed with these criteria in mind. The formulation is patented in 11 countries. Because of its polar characteris- tics, Magnakote rust preventative actually bonds to the steel. Its crystalline molecules form lay- ers of overlapping platelets that ef- fectively give and flex with the movement of the ship.
