Water soluble conducting polymer composite of polyvinyl alcohol and leucine: An effective acid corrosion inhibitor for mild steel

A new corrosion inhibitor namely poly(vinyl alcohol‐leucine) composite (PVAL) has been synthesized and its influence on corrosion inhibition of mild steel in 1 M hydrochloric acid solution has been studied by weight loss and potentiodynamic polarization techniques. The composite (PVAL) showed more than 95% inhibition efficiency (IE) at an optimum concentration of 0.6% by weight. The inhibition efficiency of inhibitor has been found to vary with inhibitor concentration, solution temperature, and immersion time. Various kinetic and thermodynamic parameters (E_a, ΔH_o, ΔS_o for corrosion and ΔG_ads, ΔH_ads, ΔS_ads for adsorption) reveal a strong interaction between inhibitor and mild steel surface. The negative values of ΔG_ads indicate the spontaneous adsorption of the inhibitor on mild steel surface. Potentiodynamic polarization studies showed PVAL as mixed type inhibitor. It inhibits mild steel corrosion by blocking the active sites of the metal. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopic (EIS) techniques were also used to investigate the mechanism of corrosion inhibition.     

The effect of temperature and concentration on the corrosion inhibition mechanism of an amphiphilic amido-amine in CO2 saturated solution

The corrosion inhibition mechanism of the N-[2-[(2-aminoethyl)amino]ethyl]-9-octadecenamide on mild steel surface in CO₂-saturated 5% NaCl solution has been studied. The inhibition efficiency decreases with increasing temperature. Adsorption of the inhibitor studied is found to follow the Frumkin adsorption isotherm. EIS results show that the mechanism of its corrosion inhibition at concentrations higher than critical micelle concentration is by forming a protective porous bi-layer. The activation energy, thermodynamic parameters and electrochemical results reveal a change in the adsorption mode of the inhibitor studied: the inhibitor could primarily be physically adsorbed at low concentrations, while chemisorption is favoured as concentration increases.     

An amino-based protic ionic liquid as a corrosion inhibitor of mild steel in aqueous chloride solutions

Protic ionic liquids (PILs) have shown to be promising substances as corrosion inhibitors (CIs). In line with this, the aim of this study is to study the performance and propose the corrosion inhibition mechanism of N-methyl-2-hydroxyethylamine (M-2HEAOL) and bis-2-hidroxyethylamine (B-HEAOL) oleate, for mild steel, in a neutral chloride solution. Electrochemical characterization was conducted under static and hydrodynamic conditions, and it was revealed that M-2HEAOL and B-HEAOL worked as mixed-type CIs with more interference on the anodic reaction. Inhibition efficiency depended on the concentration reaching 97% of inhibition efficiency in 5 mmol/L concentration. Scanning electron microscopy, optical interferometry, Raman spectroscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy are used to elicit the chemical composition of the surface film and corrosion morphology of steel in the presence of CIs, the adsorption processes of which involved physical and chemical adsorption between metal and different parts of ionic liquids. The results allowed the proposition of a corrosion inhibition mechanism.

Inhibition der Lochkorrosion von Eisenwerkstoffen in neutralen Lösungen durch organische Phosphonsäurederivate

Inhibition of pitting corrosion of Iron and steel in neutral solutions by organic phosphonic acid derivatives Pitting corrosion and inhibition by organic phosphonic acid derivatives were investigated for pure iron, mild steel, 99,5% nickel and annealed austenitic steel (AISI 304) electrodes in aerated, not stirred and chloride ions containing borate buffer solution of pH = 8.0. Inhibition efficiency is different for the electrode materials investigated. Best results were obtained for nickel, were the inhibition efficiency decreases following the row: benzole-1.4-diphosphonic acid, hexane-l.6-diphosphonic acid-monohydrate, propane- 1.3-diphosphonic acid-monohydrate, amino-tris(methylene-phosphonic acid) and 1-hydroxyethane-1.1-diphosphonic acidmonohydrate. For iron and mild steel the last two substances do not show any inhibition efficiency. For stainless steel none of the compounds investigated can be used as inhibitor for pitting corrosion. For all materials inhibition depends significantly on the ratio of the inhibitor to the chloride concentration. Potentiodynamic measurements as well as cathodic discharging experiments of passive electrodes show that the inhibiting molecules are not incorporated into the passive layers but work by the adsorption mechanism. Results of Photopotential- and AES-investigations are in agreement with this statement.

Synergistic inhibition between tween 60 and NaCl on the corrosion of cold rolled steel in 0.5 M sulfuric acid

The corrosion inhibition of cold rolled steel in 0.5 M sulfuric acid in the presence of tween 60 and sodium chloride (NaCl) has been investigated by using weight loss and electrochemical techniques. The inhibition efficiency increases with increasing tween 60 concentration at the same temperature, but decreases with increasing temperature studied. A synergistic effect exists when tween 60 and chloride ions are used together to prevent cold rolled steel corrosion in 0.5 M sulfuric acid at every experimental temperature. The polarization curves show that tween 60 is a cathodic inhibitor, while the complex of tween 60 and NaCl is a mixed-type inhibitor. The experimental results suggest that the presence of chloride ions in the solution stabilizes the adsorption of tween 60 molecules on the metal surface and improves the inhibition efficiency of tween 60. The adsorption of single tween 60 follows the Temkin adsorption isotherm, but the complex accords with the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Some thermodynamic parameters such as adsorption heat, adsorption entropy and adsorption free energy has been calculated by employing thermodynamic equations. Kinetic parameters such as apparent activation energy and pre-exponential factor have been calculated and discussed.     

Investigation of adsorption and corrosion inhibition effect of 1,1’-thiocarbonyldiimidazole on mild steel in hydrochloric acid solution

The adsorption and inhibition effect of 1,1′-thiocarbonyldiimidazole (TCDI) on the corrosion of mild steel (MS) in 0.5 M HCl solution was studied in both short and long immersion time (120 h) with the help of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and linear polarization resistance (LPR) techniques. For long-time tests, the hydrogen gas evolution (VH₂-t) and the change of open circuit potential with immersion time (E _ocp-t) were also utilized in addition to the former two techniques. The surface morphology of MS after its exposure to 0.5 M HCl solution with and without 1.0 × 10⁻² M TCDI was examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It was demonstrated that the inhibition efficiency of studied inhibitor is concentration depended and increased with TCDI concentration. The higher value of inhibition efficiency was obtained after longer immersion time merely on the basis of strong increase of corrosion rate of mild steel in the blank solution. The high inhibition efficiency was discussed in terms of adsorption of inhibitor molecules and protective film formation on the mild steel surface which was substantiated by SEM micrographs. The adsorption of TCDI on MS was found to obey Langmuir adsorption isotherm.

Temperature studies revealed an increase in inhibition efficiency with rise in temperature and corrosion activation energies decreased in the presence of 2UEI. A mechanism of chemical adsorption of 2UEI on the metal’s surface is proposed. The adsorption characteristics of the inhibitor were approximated by Temkin isotherm. The inhibition efficiency of 2UEI was enhanced in the presence of iodide ions.

The inhibitor adsorption process in mild steel/DAME/hydrochloric acid system was studied at different temperatures (308-353 K) by means of weight loss measurements. The adsorption of DAME on steel surface obeyed Langmuir’s adsorption isotherm. The kinetic and thermodynamic parameters for mild steel corrosion and inhibitor adsorption, respectively, were determined and discussed. The comparative study of inhibitive performance of the two diamine derivatives revealed that DAME is more effective than DAMP. Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) approach has been conducted in attempt to correlate the corrosion inhibition properties of these diamine derivatives with their calculated quantum chemical parameters.
