Synthesis and evaluation of bipyrazolic derivatives as inhibitors of corrosion of C38 steel in molar hydrochloric acid

Methyl 2-(bis((3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methyl)amino) acetate, BT36, and methyl 2-(bis((3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methyl)amino)-3-(1H-indol-3-yl)propanoate, BT 43, have been synthesized. Investigation by weight-loss measurement and use of electrochemical techniques revealed the compounds are very effective inhibitors of corrosion of C38 steel in 1 M HCl solutions—percentage protection exceeded 95 % for BT43 at concentrations as low as 10^?2 M. An impedance study in the absence and presence of these compounds revealed the mechanism of protection was cathodic inhibition by polarization and charge-transfer. The Langmuir adsorption isotherm was obeyed. Quantum chemical data calculated by use of DFT at the B3LYP/6-31G* level of theory revealed a good correlation between inhibition efficiency and the molecular structure of BT36 and BT43. The highest occupied molecular orbital, the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, the separation energy (ΔE), and the dipole moment (μ) from the inhibitor to the metal surface explain the experimental data well.     

Synthesis of polyaspartic acid-glycidyl adduct and evaluation of its scale inhibition performance and corrosion inhibition capacity for Q235 steel applications

In this work, the development of the eco-friendly comprehensive scale and corrosion inhibitor based on green polyaspartic acid (PASP) was presented. In this view, PASPG was prepared by a ring-opening graft modification reaction of polysuccinimide (PSI) with glycidyl. In addition, the molecular structure and the thermal stability of PASPG were characterized by using three different methods (FTIR, ¹H NMR, and TGA). PASPG’s scale inhibition efficiency and corrosion inhibition efficiency were also evaluated, respectively. More concretely, the scale inhibition efficiency of PASPG achieved 94.6 % and 95.1 % for CaCO₃ and CaSO₄, respectively. With the aid of the FTIR and SEM measurement techniques, it was found that PASPG could induce the irregular growth of the CaCO₃ and CaSO₄ morphology and destroy the formation of crystals. On the other hand, the higher corrosion efficiency of 85.17 % was achieved by PASPG in comparison with PASP (72.53 %). PASPG is a mixed inhibitor and the adsorption of PASPG on the Q235 steel surface followed the Langmuir mono-layer adsorption isotherm. The formation of a protective film on the surface of carbon steel was proved by PASPG’s adsorption, which increased the resistance to be eroded. Thus, the surface of carbon steel can be effectively protected. The present work provides a simple and effective pathway for the synthesis of high-efficiency green scale and corrosion inhibitor, by introducing a functional group into the PASP chains. The implementation of such type of chemical modification method may also be an effective strategy for improving the efficiency of other polymers green scale and corrosion inhibitors.     

Three gemini cationic surfactants as biodegradable corrosion inhibitors for carbon steel in HCl solution

Three gemini cationic surfactants with different hydrophobic spacer chain lengths were synthesized and characterized. The inhibition effect of N,N′-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-bis(2-(tetradecanoyloxy)ethyl)ethane-1,2-diaminium bromide (G-2); N,N′-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-bis(2-(tetradecanoyloxy)ethyl) hexane-1,6-diaminium bromide (G-6); and N,N′-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-bis (2-(tetradecanoyloxy) ethyl) dodecane-1,12-diaminium bromide (G-12) on the corrosion of carbon steel in 1.0 M HCl solution at 25–60 °C was studied by weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The results show that the synthesized inhibitors are effective inhibitors even at very low concentration, and the adsorption on the carbon steel surface obeys the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Potentiodynamic polarization curves reveal that the synthesized inhibitors behave as a mixed-type inhibitor. Adsorption of used inhibitors led to a reduction in the double layer capacitance and an increase in the charge transfer resistance. Thermodynamic parameters have been obtained by adsorption theory. Surface activity and corrosion inhibition relationship were discussed. The biodegradability of the synthesized surfactants showed their readily biodegradation in the open environment and were considered as environmentally friendly corrosion inhibitors.

Some new bipyrazole derivatives as corrosion inhibitors for C38 steel in acidic medium

Three new bipyrazole derivatives, ethyl 5,5′-dimethyl-1′H-1,3′-bipyrazole-4-carboxylate (Bip1), 1,1′,5,5′-tetramethyl-1H,1′H-3,3′-bipyrazole (Bip2), and 3-(bromomethyl)-5,5′-dimethyl-1′H-1,3′-bipyrazole (Bip3), have been synthesized and used as additives to protect C38 steel from corrosion in aerated 1 M HCl solution, using the various corrosion monitoring techniques such as weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. All the techniques used for the studies show an increase in inhibition efficiency and decrease in the corrosion rate by increasing the inhibitor concentration. Impedance measurements showed that the double layer capacitance decreased and charge transfer resistance increased with increase in the inhibitors concentration, and hence an increase in inhibition efficiency. A potentiodynamic polarization study showed that all the inhibitors act as mixed-type. The adsorption of bipyrazole derivatives is found to obey the Langmuir adsorption isotherm, and the thermodynamic parameters were determined and are discussed.     

Cephalosporin antibiotics as new corrosion inhibitors for nickel in HCl solution

Inhibition of nickel corrosion in 1 M HCl solution in the absence and presence of some Cephalosporin antibiotics derivatives was investigated using potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and electrochemical frequency modulation (EFM) techniques. The results obtained show that the inhibition efficiency of these compounds depends on their concentrations and chemical structures. The inhibitive action of these compounds was discussed in terms of blocking the electrode surface by adsorption of the molecules through the active centers contained in their structures following the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The polarization measurement showed that these inhibitors are acting as mixed inhibitors for both anodic and cathodic reactions. The effect of temperature on the rate of corrosion in the absence and presence of these compounds was also studied. The efficiencies obtained from the potentiodynamic polarization technique were in good agreement with those obtained from EIS and EFM techniques. This proves the validity of these tools in the measurements of the investigated inhibitors.     

Performance of some thiophene derivatives as corrosion inhibitors for 304 stainless steel in aqueous solutions

The inhibitive effect of 2-cyano-3-hydroxy-4(Ar)-5-anilino thiophene derivatives on the corrosion of 304 stainless steel (SS) in 3 M HCl solution has been investigated by weight loss, galvanostatic polarization techniques, and potentiodynamic anodic polarization in 3.5 % NaCl. The results indicate that these compounds act as inhibitors retarding the anodic and cathodic corrosion reactions. The presence of inhibitors does not change the mechanism of either hydrogen evolution reaction or SS dissolution. The activation energy and some thermodynamic parameters are calculated and discussed. These compounds are mixed-type inhibitors in the acid solution, and their adsorption on the SS surface is found to obey the Temkin adsorption isotherm. The results suggest that the percentage inhibition of these thiophene derivatives increases with increasing inhibitor concentration and decreases with increasing temperature. The synergistic parameter (S) was calculated and found to have a value greater than unity, indicating that the enhanced inhibition efficiency caused by the addition of I^?, SCN^?, and Br^? is only due to a synergistic effect. The relationship between molecular structure and inhibition efficiency was elucidated by quantum-chemical calculations using semi-empirical self-consistent field (SCF) methods.

Azorhodanine derivatives as inhibitors for acidic corrosion of nickel

Azorhodanine derivatives (HL1-HL5) were tested as corrosion inhibitors for nickel in 2M HNO3 solution using weight loss and galvanostatic polarization techniques. The results showed that these derivatives act as inhibitors for nickel in this medium. The inhibition was assumed to occur via adsorption of the inhibitor molecule on the metal surface. Polarization measurements indicated that these compounds act as mixed-type inhibitors, but the cathode is more polarized when an external current was applied. This means that these compounds retard the rate of hydrogen evolution and the rate of dissolution of the metal. Results showed that azorhodanine derivatives are adsorbed on the nickel surface following Temkin's adsorption isotherm. The activation energy and thermodynamic parameters were calculated and discussed at different temperatures (30-45 degrees C).

Amino acids and their derivatives as corrosion inhibitors for metals and alloys

In the last two decades, research in the field of corrosion inhibitors had been directed toward the goal of using cheap effective molecules of low or non-negative environmental impact to replace the environmentally hazardous compounds. One of the encourager compounds which can be used as safe corrosion inhibitors are amino acids. They are environmentally friendly, non-toxic, biodegradable and relatively cheap. On other hand, the development of computational modeling helps to understand the inhibition mechanism of those compounds and to develop the newly designed inhibitors. In this review, most of contribution made in literature on the use of amino acids and their derivatives as corrosion inhibitors for metallic alloys materials were presented and discussed.
