Abstract: | Selected oxadiazoles of fatty acids; namely 2-hepta decene-5-mercapto-1-oxa-3,4-diazole (HMOD); 2-undecane-5-mercapto-1-oxa-3,4-diazole
(UMOD); and 2-decene-5-mercapto-1-oxa-3,4-diazole (DMOD), were synthesized. Their influence on the inhibition of corrosion
of mild steel in 20% formic acid (HCOOH) was investigated by weight loss and potentiodynamic polarization techniques. The
inhibition efficiency of the compounds was found to vary with concentration, immersion time and temperature. All the compounds
showed good inhibition efficiency (e
IE) in formic acid solution. Adsorption on mild steel obeyed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Potentiodynamic polarization
revealed that all three inhibitors, HMOD, UMOD, and DMOD are mixed inhibitors. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was
also used to investigate the inhibition mechanism. |
