The author presents a review of the influence of quite a number of organic and inorganic compounds on the corrosion of brasses (70/30, 63/37, 60/40) in several acids (nitric, acetic, lactic, malic, phosphoric and hydrochloric acids), sodium hydroxide, potassium persulfate and ammonium chloride. In this context the inhibitor efficiency is considered as a function of the concentration of the medium and a function of inhibitor constitution. Inhibiting mechanisms are dealt with in terms of structure and constitution of the inhibitors used.
