scholarly journals Electrochemical Studies of Green Corrosion Inhibitors

Corrosion of macro to micro-structures has been one of the major causes of structural failure in modern era. Their early detection could assist in limiting their repairs and reducing the associated cost as well. This chapter focusses on the state-of-the-art and development made with green corrosion inhibitors for preventing corrosion. It mainly includes the most recent progress in electrochemical corrosion monitoring techniques for various green inhibitors namely polarization technique, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, electrochemical noise measurement and electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance techniques. Finally, we conclude with the current progress, limitations and remedies in the recent trends and advancement of green corrosion inhibitors for corrosion prevention.

Croton lechleri, commonly known as Dragon’s blood, is a tree cultivated in the northwest Amazon rainforest of Ecuador and Peru. This tree produces a deep red latex which is composed of different natural products such as phenolic compounds, alkaloids, and others. The chemical structures of these natural products found in C. lechleri latex are promising corrosion inhibitors of admiralty brass (AB), due to the number of heteroatoms and π structures. In this work, three different extracts of C. lechleri latex were obtained, characterized phytochemically, and employed as novel green corrosion inhibitors of AB. The corrosion inhibition efficiency (IE%) was determined in an aqueous 0.5 M HCl solution by potentiodynamic polarization (Tafel plots) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, measuring current density and charge transfer resistance, respectively. In addition, surface characterization of AB was performed by scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy techniques. Chloroform alkaloid-rich extracts resulted in IE% of 57% at 50 ppm, attributed to the formation of a layer of organic compounds on the AB surface that hindered the dezincification process. The formulation of corrosion inhibitors from C. lechleri latex allows for the valorization of non-edible natural sources and the diversification of the offer of green corrosion inhibitors for the chemical treatment of heat exchangers.

In this study, the inhibitor effect of Solidago chilensis extract as green corrosion inhibitor for anodized aluminum alloy samples was evaluated in NaCl 3%wt solution. This study was carried out for application on cans for pack of foods. The procedure of the surface treatment of the samples was done by anodizing followed by sealing in a solution containing the inhibitor. Essays of potentiostatic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were done to evaluate the inhibitor effect. The mechanical analyses were performed on anodized samples to evaluate the influence of the thickness of anodization on the mechanical resistance of the samples. The potentiostatic essays indicated that a cathodic inhibitor effect occurs only in non-anodized samples and that the anodic effect of the inhibitor not appears on the anodized samples. The calculated efficiency of the inhibitor was 96 %. The EIS results indicated that the higher values of polarization resistance (16 kΩ) occur on anodized samples containing inhibitor after 72 hours of immersion in NaCl 3%wt. The mechanical essays indicated a non – significant difference between anodized and non – anodized samples.

Due to its high oil content, this research proposes the use of an agroindustrial byproduct (rice bran) as a sustainable option for the synthesis of corrosion inhibitors. From the crude rice bran oil, the synthesis of fatty amide-type corrosion inhibitors was carried out. The corrosion inhibitory capacity of the fatty amides was evaluated on an API X-70 steel using electrochemical techniques such as real-time corrosion monitoring and potentiodynamic polarization curves. As a corrosive medium, a CO2-saturated solution (3.5% NaCl) was used at three temperatures (30, 50, and 70°C) and different concentrations of inhibitor (0, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 ppm). The results demonstrate that the sustainable use of agroindustrial byproducts is a good alternative to the synthesis of environmentally friendly inhibitors with high corrosion inhibition efficiencies.

<div>The electrolyte additives vinylene carbonate (VC) and fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) are well known for increasing the lifetime of a Li-ion battery cell by supporting the formation of an effective solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) at the anode. In this study combined simultaneous electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and <i>operando</i> electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (EQCM-D) are employed together with <i>in situ</i> gas analysis (OEMS) to study the influence of VC and FEC on the passivation process and the interphase properties at carbon-based anodes. In small quantities both additives reduce the initial interphase mass loading by 30 to 50 %, but only VC also effectively prevents continuous side reactions and improves anode passivation significantly. VC and FEC are both reduced at potentials above 1 V vs. Li<sup>+</sup>/Li in the first cycle and change the SEI composition which causes an increase of the SEI shear storage modulus by over one order of magnitude in both cases. As a consequence, the ion diffusion coefficient and conductivity in the interphase is also significantly affected. While small quantities of VC in the initial electrolyte increase the SEI conductivity, FEC decomposition products hinder charge transport through the SEI and thus increase overall anode impedance significantly. </div>

Similar welds composed of 5083 were produced by friction stir welding. In the solution of 0.2 M NaHSO3 and 0.6 M NaCl, with the addition of a given concentration sodium molybdate as the inhibitor, the electrochemical corrosion behaviors of the friction stir welds (FSW) and 5083 were comparatively investigated by potentiodynamic polarization curve tests and electrochemical impedance spectra (EIS) at the ambient temperature for different test periods. The results indicated that : with the extension of period, the inhibition efficiencies (IE) for both the weld and 5083 base materials enhanced, at the same period, the inhibition efficiency (IE) for the weld was beyond that for 5083 base materials, sodium molybdate may be thought of as an effective inhibitor for 5083 aluminum alloy, the interaction between inhibitor and weld is stronger than that between inhibitor and base materials.

Four 2-thiohydantoin derivatives were synthesized and their corrosion inhibition properties on mild steel (MS) in 0.5M HCl solution was evaluated using usual gravimetric and electrochemical methods (weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Morphology of the metal surface was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The study has shown that these compounds provide good protection for mild steel against corrosion in the acidic medium.
