Abstract: This disclosure relates to a composition for the protection of an article against corrosion, wherein the composition comprises a blend comprising about 50 to about 99 wt. % of an amorphous polymer and about 1 to about 50 wt. % of a hydrocarbon wax, based on the total weight of the blend, the composition containing at least 30 wt. % of said blend, based on the total weight of the composition, wherein the amorphous polymer has a glass transition temperature Tg of lower than about ?20° C.; and the hydrocarbon wax has a melting point of about 35° to about 130° C. This disclosure also relates to a wrapping tape comprising a backing layer and a layer comprising the composition.
