Efficiency of corrosion inhibitors for steel protected by bluing

Naoružanje u vojnoj primjeni oduvijek je izloženo ekstremnim atmosferskim i mehaničkim uvjetima, no u mirnodopsko vrijeme sve vojske veliku količinu naoružanja skladište na više godina. Zbog toga proizvođači traže načine zaštite oružja od korozije i u eksploatacijskim i u uvjetima skladištenja. Bruniranje je najčešće korištena metoda zaštite naoružanja jer osim što pruža zaštitu od korozije i trošenja, ne reflektira svjetlost, što je jako bitno u borbi. U ovom radu u teorijskom dijelu prikazani su razvoj pješačkog naoružanja, korozijski fenomeni i metode zaštite od korozije. U eksperimentalnom dijelu rada provedena su korozijska ispitivanja s ciljem utvrđivanja učinkovitosti zaštite bruniranih čelika inhibitorima korozije.Weapons in military use have always been exposed to extreme atmospheric and mechanical conditions. However, in the period of peace, all the armies are storing a large amount of weapons over a number of years. This is why manufacturers are looking for ways to protect weapons from corrosion, both in exploitation and storage conditions. Bluing is the most commonly used weapon protection method because in addition to protecting against corrosion and wear, does not reflect the light, which is very important in the combat. This thesis presents the development of infantry weapons, corrosion phenomena and corrosion protection methods in the theoretical part. In the experimental part, corrosion tests were carried out to determine the efficiency of the protection of blued steel by corrosion inhibitors
