A volatile corrosion inhibitor for use through the incorporation into a resin, which comprises a metal nitrite, a metal benzoate, a saturated polycarboxylic acid or its metal salt and a corrosion inhibiting component for a non-iron metal; and a volatile corrosion inhibiting formed article prepared by incorporating the volatile corrosion inhibitor into a thermoplastic resin. The above volatile corrosion inhibitor having been incorporated into a forming resin and been formed into an article in the form of a film, sheet or fiber does not cause melting, coagulation, decomposition, volatilization, vaporization or the like, even when exposed to a high temperature condition, and is free from the generation of offensive odor or a powder dust owing to sublimation of a corrosion inhibitor, resulting in an unpolluted working environment, and exhibits excellent volatile corrosion inhibition effect not only for an iron base metal material but also for a non-iron metal material such as copper. |
