The present invention is related to a method for protecting a metal substrate against corrosion comprising the step of: -generating a plasma in a gaseous medium by means of a plasma device; -placing the substrate in contact with the plasma, or in a post-plasma area of said plasma; -introducing in said plasma or in said post-plasma area a corrosion inhibitor along with an organic precursor, thereby depositing a barrier layer comprising the corrosion inhibitor, the deposited layer protecting the metal substrate against corrosion. |
