A rapid laboratory method is presented for testing the effectiveness of sodium silicate as an anodic inhibitor. Passivity curves taken on polished steel electrodes, pre ‐treated for 24, or better, 48 hr in aerated solutions of sodium silicate (3–500 ppm silica) and compared with sodium hydroxide solutions of the same pH, indicate that silica, and not merely an increase in pH, caused inhibition. No corrosion products were observed in the short pretreatment time for electrodes treated with 15 and more ppm silica, whereas all sodium hydroxide treated electrodes corroded. The method can be made the basis of a practical test by pretreating the electrodes, in the actual environment being treated, with sodium silicate. The procedure also appears to be applicable in the testing of other anodic inhibitors.
