Abstract:
1. A corrosion inhibiting structure comprising: a mineral tubule having a first end, a second end, and a lumen extending from said first end to said second end, wherein said lumen terminates in a first opening at said first end of said mineral tubule, and wherein said lumen terminates in a second opening at said second end of said mineral tubule; a deposit of one or more reagents disposed within said lumen, wherein said reagents comprise an anticorrosion agent; and a first precipitate stopper covering said first opening and a second precipitate stopper covering said second opening, wherein said first and second precipitate stoppers each comprise a precipitate formed by the interaction of said anticorrosion agent leaking from said lumen and one or more counter-reagents disposed outside of said mineral tubule, wherein said one or more counter-reagents comprise one or more metal ions, and wherein said anticorrosion agent is capable of forming a two-dimensional complex film with said one or more metal ions.
