Abstract

The inhibitive effect of the Murraya koenigii (curry leaf) leaf extract on the corrosion of mild steel in 1 M HCl was investigated by using weight loss, open circuit potential measurements, potentiostatic polarization techniques, and impedance analysis. The results show that Murraya koenigii extract is an effective corrosion inhibitor for protecting the corrosion of mild steel in 1 M HCl medium even at stimulated conditions. The inhibition efficiency increases with increasing the concentration of the inhibitor in the medium. The percentage inhibitor efficiency under stagnant condition calculated based on weight loss method is found to be above 94.5% when the medium contains 1000 ppm of the inhibitor.     

Influence of bis-(2-benzothiazolyl)-disulfide on corrosion inhibition of mild steel in hydrochloric acid media

The inhibiting behavior of bis-(2-benzothiazolyl)-disulfide on mild steel corrosion was evaluated in 1?M HCl solution. Weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques were used in this study. In EIS technique, by performing Kramers–Kronig transformations, the experimental results validated, before fitting any theoretical model on them. The obtained results showed that the inhibition efficiency (%IE) increases by increasing the concentration of bis-(2-benzothiazolyl)-disulfide up to 2.02?×??0^???M (%IE?～??2??8). Between the results obtained from various used techniques, a good agreement was found. Polarization curves indicate that the inhibition of the inhibitor is a mixed anodic–cathodic nature and Langmuir isotherm is found as an accurate isotherm describing the adsorption behavior. It also found that its inhibition mechanism of bis-(2-benzothiazolyl)-disulfide is at the interval of physical adsorption and chemical binding. The inhibition efficiency of the inhibitor decreased by rising of temperature in the range of 25??5?°C and these results, verified adsorption behavior of the inhibitor.

All experimental findings substantiate the corrosion mitigation performance of PCBPE on mild steel in acidic environments.     

Effect of Avogadro natural oil on the corrosion inhibition of mild steel in hydrochloric acid solution

The inhibition action of Avogadro natural oil on corrosion of mild steel in one molar hydrochloric acid solution was investigated by gravimetric and potentiodynamic polarization techniques. The surface morphology of as-corroded samples was assessed with high resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy equipped with energy dispersive spectroscopy (HR-STEM/EDS). From the results, the presence of Avogadro natural oil in the metal–acidic interface decreased the corrosion rate with all the exposure times.

Results obtained from gravimetric measurements indicate that the natural oil exhibited higher efficiencies of 93.26 % after 384 h of exposure time and 98.26 % recorded in the potentiodynamic polarization method, both at 4.5 g/v inhibitor addition. Equally, results from the linear polarization indicated higher potential value with an increase in the polarization resistance (R _p) and lower current density for the inhibited samples than the uninhibited mild steel sample. The inhibitive effect of this oil was explained in view of adsorption on the metal surface. The adsorption process follows the Langmuir adsorption isotherm.

Inhibitive assessment of 1-(7-methyl-5-morpholin-4-yl-thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidin-2-yl)-hydrazine as a corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in sulfuric acid solution

In this study, the inhibitive effect of synthesized 1-(7-methyl-5-morpholin-4-yl-thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidin-2-yl)-hydrazine (MMTPH) as a new corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in 0.5 M sulfuric acid medium is investigated employing potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and linear polarization resistance techniques. The results show MMTPH reduces anodic dissolution, retards the hydrogen evolution reaction and its adsorption follows Langmuir’s adsorption isotherm. Any increase in temperature will in turn increase corrosion current densities; however, the presence of MMTPH hinders the rate. In solutions with inhibitor concentration of 200 ppm, temperature elevations as great as 30° (25–55 °C) result in a drop of about 45 % in inhibition efficiency (99–55 %). Thermodynamic adsorption parameters show that the MMTPH is absorbed by a spontaneous exothermic process and the adsorption mechanism is physical. Quantum chemical method shows that the MMTPH molecules can be directly adsorbed at the steel surface on the basis of donor–acceptor interactions between π-electrons of pyrimidine, N atoms of hydrazine and vacant d-orbitals of iron atoms.

The leaf extract of T. purpurea was characterized using UV-Visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) and Gas Chromatography – Mass Spectrometry (GCMS). The results obtained from electrochemical studies exhibited the potential of T. purpurea as good corrosion inhibitor. And, it was found that, the inhibition efficiency (I.E in %) increases with increase in concentration of the inhibitor molecules, the optimum inhibitor concentration observed was 300?ppm and the inhibition efficiency of 93% was observed at this inhibitor concentration. Above 300?ppm, there was not much changes in inhibition efficiency. Polarization studies provided the information that the inhibition is of mixed type and EIS confirmed that the corrosion process is controlled by single charge transfer mechanism. And, it was obtained that, the adsorption of inhibitor molecules obeys Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The inhibition is mainly by the adsorption of inhibitor molecules on the mild steel electrode surface, which was confirmed by FT-IR, SEM and AFM studies. Through all the experimental results, it can be arrived that, the leaf extract of T. purpurea performed as a good corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in 1?N sulfuric acid medium.

Corrosion inhibition of mild steel by highly stable polydentate schiff base derived from 1,3- propanediamine in aqueous acidic solution

Recently, the hydrolysis of Schiff bases under experimental conditions gives suspicion for their corrosion inhibition performance. The current study employs a stable Schiff base namely, 2,2′-{propane-1,3-diylbis[azanylylidene (E) methanylylidene]}bis(6-methoxyphenol) (LPD) as corrosion inhibitor for mild steel (MS) in 1 M HCl solution. The presence of the characteristic peak of the imine group in UV-visible spectra was taken as an indicator for LPD stability in acidic media. The inhibition action was examined using electrochemical techniques including potentiodynamic polarization (PDP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) besides gravimetric measurement. The inhibition efficiency reached 95.93 % for 0.75 mM LPD after 24 h of immersion at 25 °C. This high efficiency is owing to the presence of the characteristic imine group and other heteroatoms and π- electrons of the aromatic benzene rings. The mechanism of inhibition depends on adsorption phenomena on mild steel surface which obeys Langmuir isotherm model. The calculated values of adsorption equilibrium constant (K_ads), adsorption free energy ΔG_ads, adsorption enthalpy ΔH_ads and adsorption entropy ΔS_ads indicated spontaneous exothermic adsorption process of both physical and chemical nature. By rising temperature, the inhibition efficiency of LPD was decreased. The calculated activation energy was increased as the concentration of LPD increased. LPD was considered as a mixed-type inhibitor as indicated from PDP measurements. The obtained surface morphology and composition analysis using SEM/EDS, AFM and FTIR techniques ensures the high efficiency of LPD as corrosion inhibitor.

Evaluation of Allium sativum as corrosion inhibitor for carbon steel in sulphuric acid under hydrodynamic conditions

ABSTRACT

A study on the use of Allium sativum (garlic) as corrosion inhibitor for carbon steel in 0.5?M H₂SO₄ has been carried out in static and dynamic conditions by using potentiodynamic polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy at 0, 200, 500, 1000 and 2000?rpm. Inhibitor concentrations included 0, 100, 200, 400, 600, 800 and 1000?ppm. Under static conditions, inhibitor efficiency increases with increasing its concentration up to 400?ppm, but it decreases with a further increase in its concentration. Under dynamic conditions and short testing times, inhibitor efficiency increases with increasing the rotating speed, due to a better inhibitor transfer towards the steel surface. However, for longer testing times, inhibitor efficiency increases only during the first 2?h, and then it decreases with a further increase in time, indicating a desorption of the inhibitor molecules from the steel surface.     

The effect of 2-aminoquinoline-6-carboxylic acid on the corrosion behavior of mild steel in hydrochloric acid

The inhibitive effect of 2-aminoquinoline-6-carboxylic acid (AQC) against mild steel corrosion in 1?M HCl solutions was investigated using conventional weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization, linear polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy methods. The weight loss results showed that AQC is an excellent corrosion inhibitor since its efficiency increased with the concentration to attain 91.8?% at 500?mg?l^?1. Electrochemical polarization measurements revealed that AQC acted as a mixed-type inhibitor and the results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy have shown that the change in the impedance parameters, charge transfer resistance and double layer capacitance, with the change in concentration of the inhibitor is due to the adsorption of the molecule leading to the formation of a protective layer on the surface of mild steel. The adsorption was assumed to occur on the steel surface through the active centers of the molecule. The inhibition action of AQC was discussed in view of Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Density functional theory calculations of quantum parameters were used to explain efficiency in relation with molecular structure.
