The synthesis and corrosion inhibition performance of poly(butylene-succinate)-L-proline (PBSLP) prepared by solution polymerization are reported. PBSLP was characterized by FTIR, XRD, and SEM/energy dispersive X-ray (EDX). PBSLP was used to protect mild steel in 1 M hydrochloric acid. An SEM and an atomic force microscope (AFM) were used to characterize the surface morphology of the mild steel coupons. Potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to characterize the inhibition mechanism of PBSLP, and the inhibitor was a mixed-type corrosion inhibitor with a maximum corrosion inhibition efficiency of 93.0%. Adsorption studies revealed the adsorption of PBSLP to be a monolayer process and therefore, obeyed the Langmuir isotherm model.

The ecofriendly poly(butylene succinate) extended with 1,6-diisocynatohexane composted with L-histidine (PBSLH) polymer composite was synthesized by condensation polymerization. The polymer composite was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscope (SEM-EDX). The inhibition action of the polymer composite was investigated by conventional weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization, variable amplitude micro (VASP), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The maximum corrosion inhibition efficiency of 78 % was obtained at concentration level of 600 ppm. The results revealed PBSLH as a mixed type corrosion inhibitor. The thermodynamic and kinetic parameters also revealed adsorption of PBSLH on to mild surface as exothermic and the adsorption was conformed to Langmuir model. The morphology of mild steel coupons was investigated by SEM and atomic force microscope (AFM) and the results showed PBSLH to have inhibited corrosion on mild steel in 1 M HCL.

AbstractHerein, the corrosion inhibition performance of mild steel (MS) in an acidic environment (1.0 M HCl) by the valerian extract has been studied via weight loss method (WL), potentiodynamic polarization (PP), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and electrochemical frequency modulation (EFM) techniques. The results illustrated that the inhibition efficiency, raised by the rise of the extract concentrations. The inhibitory mechanism depended on the creation of a stable plant extract-complex on the mild steel surface. Polarization studies confirmed that the extract behaved as a mixed type inhibitor. The corrosion inhibition was supposed to exist via adsorption of the main components of the valerian extract. Attenuated total reflection-infrared spectroscopy (ATR-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were applied to investigate the change in the surface morphology and confirmed the corrosion inhibition mechanism. The complete study confirmed that the efficiency of the valerian extract as a safe, eco-friendly and exchange corrosion inhibition for mild steel in an acidic environment.

This paper studies the corrosion inhibition performance and mechanism of dextrin (Dxt) and its graft copolymer with caprolactam (Dxt-g-CPL) on J55 steel in 1 M HCl solution. Caprolactam is grafted and copolymerized with dextrin by a chemical synthesis method, to obtain a dextrin graft copolymer corrosion inhibitor. The composition of the synthesized graft copolymer was characterized by FTIR to identify whether the grafting was successful. Through weightlessness, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization curve (TAFEL), scanning electrochemical microscope (SECM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and contact angle experiments, the graft copolymer to J55 steel in 1 M HCl solution and the corrosion inhibition performance were evaluated. Moreover, we discuss its corrosion inhibition mechanism. The dextrin graft copolymer has good corrosion inhibition performance for J55 in 1 M HCl solution. When the concentration of the corrosion inhibitor increases, the corrosion inhibition efficiency will also increase. At a certain concentration, when the temperature rises, the corrosion inhibition efficiency will gradually decrease. When the concentration is 300 mg/L, it has a better corrosion inhibition effect, and the corrosion inhibition efficiency is 82.38%. Potential polarization studies have shown that Dxt-g-CPL is a mixed corrosion inhibitor, which inhibits both the cathode and the anode of the electrode reaction. SEM, SECM, and contact angle analysis results show that Dxt-g-CPL can significantly inhibit corrosion. Compared with Dxt, Dxt-g-CPL has a better inhibitory effect.

In the present study, the inhibition performance of two synthesized hydrazone derivatives (HDZs), namely, (E)-N′-(2,4-dimethoxybenzylidene)-2-(6-methoxynaphthalen-2-yl) propanehydrazide (HYD-1) and N′-cyclohexylidene-2-(6-methoxynaphthalen-2-yl) propanehydrazide (HYD-2) on mild steel (MS) in 1.0 M HCl was investigated using weight loss measurements, electrochemical techniques, and scanning electron microscope (SEM) coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The experimental data suggested that the hydrazone derivatives exhibited a high inhibition performance, which increases with increasing their concentrations. HYD-1 and HYD-2 presented maximum inhibition efficiencies of 96% and 84%, respectively, at an optimal concentration of 5 × 10–3 M. The principal observations that resulted from electrochemical studies are that HYDs affected both anodic and cathodic reactions (mixed inhibitors). Their adsorption, which is a combination of chemisorption and physisorption, obeyed the Langmuir isotherm model. Furthermore, the temperature effect was carried out at various temperatures ranging from 303 to 333 K to verify the corrosion inhibition performance of HYD-1 at higher temperatures. Moreover, SEM-EDX analysis confirmed that HYDs can ensure remarkable prevention against corrosion through the adsorption onto the metal surface.

Dapsone derivatives Viz., 4, 4’-sulfonylbis(N-((1H-pyrrol-2-yl)methylene)aniline) (SBPMA) and 2-dimethylamino-5-[(4-{4-[(4-dimethylamino-benzylidene)-amino]-benzenesulfonyl}-phenylimino)-methyl]-benzene (DBBPB), a new class of corrosion inhibitors have been synthesized and their corrosion inhibition efficiency on mild steel in 0.5 M H2SO4 was investigated by mass loss,  Tafel polarization and AC impedance measurements. Potentiodynamic polarization studies showed that, these compounds behave as mixed type of corrosion inhibitors. The adsorption process was found to obey Langmuir isotherm model. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) studies revealed that polarization resistance (RP) increases and double layer capacitance (Cdl) decreases as the concentration of the inhibitors increases. Various thermodynamic parameters for the adsorption of inhibitors on mild steel were computed and discussed. FTIR, EDX and SEM analyses were performed to study the film persistency of the inhibitors.

Abstract The ligands 1,10-phenanthroline, (P) and para-aminobenzoate, (B); as well as their corresponding MnPB complex [bis-(dimanganese di-μ-paraaminobenzoate dichloro diphenanthroline)] have been investigated as inhibitors of mild steel corrosion in H2SO4 (0.5 M) solutions via potentiodynamic and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques. Stability of the prepared complex was examined by UV-visible spectroscopy. The corrosion inhibition, thermodynamics, and adsorptive properties obtained have shown that MnPB complex has remarkable effects in the acidic solutions. Theoretical fitting of different adsorption isotherms such as Langmuir, Flory–Huggins, and the kinetic-thermodynamic models were tested and the thermodynamic activation parameters were calculated. The data revealed that the corrosion inhibition mechanism of mild steel in acidic solutions by the MnPB complex goes via physicochemical adsorption.

The study of the corrosion inhibition of mild steel in acid medium 1 M HCl by the Schiff base compounds named {4,4′-Bis(pyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde) diphenyl diimino sulfide (L1) and 4,4′-Bis(thiophene-2-carboxaldehyde) diphenyl diimino sulfide (L2)} was carried out using various techniques: weight loss measurements, polarization curves, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The influence of the concentration, immersion time and temperature was examined and the mode of adsorption of these inhibitors on the surface of the metal was highlighted by assigning the appropriate isotherm. The experimental results indicate that these compounds are effective corrosion inhibitors and the inhibitory competence rises with increasing inhibitor concentration. The adsorption of these compounds on the mild steel surface obeys the isotherm of Langmuir. The correlation between the molecular structures and the inhibitory properties of the compounds studied was performed using the Density Functional Theory (DFT) method. Furthermore, molecular dynamics (MD) simulation has been taken into account. The results indicate that the adsorption energy of L1 was less than L2, which is in accordance with the experimentally determined inhibition effect.

The corrosion inhibition of mild steel in hydrochloric, sulfuric, and phosphoric acids solutions containing a mineral compound-based phosphate (apatite) was evaluated by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Potentio-dynamic polarization measurements reveal that the inhibition efficiency increased with the concentration of the apatite, which appears to be a cathodic type inhibitor in the three mediums. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy confirms this result; indeed, the transfer resistance increases with apatite concentration. The authors note that the double layer capacitance decreases simultaneously suggesting the formation of an adsorbed layer on the mild steel surface. The inhibition mechanism has been elucidated by a thermodynamic study, which showed that the film was formed by physi-sorption. The adsorption model obeys to the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The parameters of activation energy were evaluated and discussed.

Purpose Tannic acid (TA) is one of the green corrosion inhibitors for mild steel; its anti-corrosive performance in alkaline water on mild steel when it is used together with polyaspartic acid (PASA) still has not been investigated. The purpose of this study is to develop an effective, biodegradable and environment-friendly novel corrosion inhibitor based on TA and PASA as an alternative to the conventional inorganic inhibitors for mild steel in decarbonised water, which is common in cooling systems. Design/methodology/approach Corrosion inhibition mechanism is investigated by electrochemical techniques such as polarisation measurements and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and results were evaluated to determine the optimum inhibitor concentration for industrial applications. Additionally, practice-like conditions are carried out in pilot plant studies to simulate the conditions in cooling systems. Thus, the efficiencies of the inhibitors are evaluated through both weight loss and linear polarisation resistance measurements. Moreover, the corrosion product is characterised by scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis. Findings TA shows high inhibition efficiency especially towards pitting corrosion for mild steel in decarbonised water. PASA addition in the cooling systems improves the inhibition efficiency of TA, and at lower concentrations of TA + PASA, it is possible to obtained better inhibition efficiency than TA alone at higher inhibitor amounts, which is essential in economic and environmental aspect. Originality/value A blended inhibitor program including TA and PASA with suggested concentrations in this work can be used as an environmental friendly treatment concept for the mild steel corrosion inhibition at cooling systems.

The present study was undertaken to find out the phytochemicals present in Bougainvillea glabra bracts extract and to compare the corrosion inhibition efficiency between B.glabra Pink, Orange and White coloured bract extract on mild steel in 1N HCl. Phyto chemical analysis showed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolic compounds and tannins in the extract as confirmed by implying different qualitative tests specified for these phytochemical. Corrosion rate, inhibition efficiency, FTIR analysis was determined. The corrosion of mild steel in 1N HCl acid media was significantly reduced upon the additions of BG bract extracts. The inhibition efficiency increased with the increasing concentration of the inhibitor. Maximum inhibition efficiency was observed at an optimum concentration of 2 % v/v.
