Abstract
A composition is provided which, when applied to a metal surface, forms a corrosion-inhibiting film thereon. The composition comprises an epoxy resin, an effective amount of a curing agent for the epoxy resin, an alcohol, and a hydrocarbon diluent. The composition is applied by contacting the metal surface with the composition as one solution or as a hydrocarbon solution of the epoxy resin and a solution comprising the alcohol and the curing agent. The composition is particularly useful in the treatment of down-well metal surface in oil and gas wells to inhibit the corrosion of the metal.
