Abstract

The invention relates to a method for protecting a metal surface by means of a coating based on a corrosion-inhibiting composition containing the following component(s): a) at least one type of deposit substance comprising (1) anions incorporated by an oxidation reaction and (2) releasing at least a part of said anions for a potential variation between a redox potential of the deposit substance and an undisturbed corrosion potential of a metal surface or when a comparably small potential variation is produced on a defect, wherein said anions can inhibit a partial anodic or/and cathodic corrosion reaction or/and act as an adherence initiator, said anions comprise, respectively, an ionic radius non-impairing the migration thereof, possibly b) at least one type of matrix substance, wherein said deposit substance(s) disposed in the undisturbed areas of the coating are at least partially oxidised or at least partially doped by the anions and at least one type of the deposit substance in the disturbed areas of the at least partially reduced coating or devoid at least partially of doping anions, the coating is adjusted by selecting the contained components and the contents thereof in such a way that it is possible to act at least partially and prematurely against the generation or the progression of a delamination before an intense delamination occurred. The variants of the deposit substance optionally have a relatively low cation transport rate.
