Inhibitive effect of imidazopyridine derivative towards corrosion of C38 steel in hydrochloric acid solution

The effect of adding 2-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-carbaldehyde derivative named (P2), newly synthesized on the electrochemical behavior of C38 steel in molar hydrochloric acid was investigated by using the weight-loss method, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements. EIS results show that the transfer resistance increases with the increase of concentration of P2 and it also had an inhibiting effect on C38 steel corrosion in HCl solutions. Weight-loss essays confirm that the corrosion rate decreases as the P2 concentration increases. The inhibition efficiency for this compound studied increased with the increase in the inhibitor concentrations to attain 91.7 % at the 10^?3 M of P2. The potentiodynamic polarization curves indicated that P2 acted as a mixed-type inhibitor in hydrochloric acid.     

1,7′-dimethyl-2′-propyl-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>,3′<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-2,5′-bibenzo[<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>]imidazole as a corrosion inhibitor of mild steel in 1 M HCl

The mass loss results showed that DPBI is an excellent corrosion inhibitor; electrochemical polarizations data revealed the mixed mode of inhibition; and the results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy showed that the change in the impedance parameters, charge transfer resistance, and double layer capacitance with the change in the 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 inhibition action of this compound was assumed to occur via adsorption on the steel surface through the active centers of the molecule.

Adsorption of Acacia cyanophylla leaves extract on mild steel surface in 1 M H₂SO₄ solution obeys Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Polarization curves were also obtained at different temperatures in order to measure changes of corrosion rate. Corrosion current increases and inhibition efficiency decreases with temperature increasing in H₂SO₄ solutions with and without Acacia cyanophylla extract. Corrosion parameters also changed with exposure time. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Ceratonia siliqua extract as a green corrosion inhibitor for copper and brass in nitric acid solutions

ABSTRACT

The influence of extract of ceratonia siliqua extract on the corrosion of copper and brass in aqueous 1 M nitric acid was examined by weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and electrochemical frequency modulation techniques. The surface morphology was analyzed using scanning electron microscope and energy dispersive X-ray techniques. Potentiodynamic polarization curves indicated that the plant extract behaves as cathodic inhibitor. The results indicate that the extract solution of the plant could serve as an effective inhibitor for the corrosion of copper and brass in nitric acid media. As temperature increases, percentage of inhibition decreases. The degree of surface coverage of the adsorbed inhibitor was determined by weight-loss technique, and it was found that the results obeyed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm.

Surface morphological and impedance spectroscopic studies on the interaction of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) with mild steel in acid solutions

The inhibition of mild steel corrosion in aerated acid mixture of 0.5 N H₂SO₄ and 0.5 N HCl solution was investigated using potentiodynamic polarization studies, linear polarization studies, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, adsorption, and surface morphological studies. The effect of inhibitor concentration on corrosion rate, degree of surface coverage, adsorption kinetics, and surface morphology is investigated. The inhibition efficiency increased markedly with increase in additive concentration. The presence of PEG and PVP decreases the double-layer capacitance and increases the charge-transfer resistance. The inhibitor molecules first adsorb on the metal surface following a Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Both PEG and PVP offer good inhibition properties for mild steel and act as mixed-type inhibitors. Surface analysis by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) shows that PVP offers better protection than PEG.

The new synthesized cationic Gemini surfactant (CGS) was tested as a corrosion inhibitor for carbon steel (CS) in 1.0?M hydrochloric acid using weight loss, electrochemical spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization. The inhibition efficiency is increased by increasing the CGS concentration and is almost constant within the temperature range studied. The inhibition was explained by adsorption of the CGS molecule on the CS surface. A mixed-type inhibitor is suggested for the inhibitory effects of CGS as revealed by the potentiodynamic polarization technique. The changes in impedance parameters suggested that the adsorption of the inhibitor on the CGS surface led to the formation of protective films. The adsorption of the CGS on the surface of CS obeys Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Thermodynamic and kinetic parameters were calculated and discussed.

The inhibition effect of polyphenols extracted from olive mill wastewater (PP) on carbon steel in 1.0 M HCl solution was studied. Inhibition efficiency of PP was carried out by using chemical (weight loss method) and electrochemical techniques [potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS)].

Medicago sativa as a green corrosion inhibitor for 1018 carbon steel in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution

A study on the use of the methanol extract of Medicago sativa as a green corrosion inhibitor for 1018 carbon steel in 0.5?M of sulfuric acid has been carried out by using potentiodynamic polarization curves, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and gravimetric tests. Testing temperatures were 25°C, 40°C and 60°C. Results showed that M. sativa is a good corrosion inhibitor, with its efficiency increasing with its concentration and with time, but decreasing with the temperature. M. sativa forms a passive film on top of the steel with a passive current density and pitting potential values lower than that for uninhibited solution, and remained on the steel for 8–12?h. This film formed by iron ions and heteroatoms present in OH^? and amine groups from the extract are adsorbed on the steel and form a protective film on to the steel.
