The traditional methods of metal corrosion detection have the disadvantages of complex operation, inability to perform real-time monitoring, and high costs, while the fluorescent probe has the advantages of high sensitivity, simple structure, non-destructive detection, in-situ detection, real-time detection, etc. It is a promising method for monitoring the early corrosion of metal, which can independently indicate the coating damage and metal corrosion in the early corrosion stage of metal. The principle of fluorescent probe in monitoring corrosion were reviewed according to the corrosion process of metal, and the fluorescent probes were classified into three categories: pH-sensitive, metal ion-sensitive, and coating damage-sensitive, which display fluorescent reaction according to the change in pH, the presence of metal ions, and the damage of coatings as an early warnings of the beginning of corrosion. The application scenarios, advantages, and disadvantages of different types of fluorescent probes were summarized, and finally, the development prospects of fluorescent probe monitoring technology were predicted.
