Purpose
This paper aims to study the inhibition effect of 2-pyridinealdazine on the corrosion of mild steel in an acidic medium. The inhibition effect was studied using weight loss, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and Tafel polarization measurements.
Design/methodology/approach
Weight loss measurements, potentiodynamic tests, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and spectral and conformational isomers analysis of A (E-PAA) and B (Z-PAA) were performed were investigated.
Findings
2-pyridinealdazine (PAA) acts as a good inhibitor for the corrosion of steel in 2.0 M H3PO4. The inhibition efficiency increases with an increase in inhibitor concentration but decreases with an increase in temperature.
Originality/value
This paper is intended to be added to the family of azines which are highly efficient inhibitors and can be used in the area of corrosion prevention and control.
The essential oil of Santolina pectinata aerial parts (SP oil) was extracted by hydrodistillation and analyzed by Gas Chromatography (GC) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS). 34 components were identified, accounting 59.4% of the total oil, which (Z)-heptadeca-10,16-dien-7-one (ZHD) was the major component with 28 % of the oil. The protective effect of this oil on the corrosion of mild steel (MS) in 1M HCl solution was tested by the measurements of Weight loss (WL), potentiodynamic polarization (PDP), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). From WL measurements, the inhibiting effect was raised with the increasing of both concentration inhibitor and temperature. PDP curves led to a mixed-type inhibitor. The charge transfer process mainly controls the results of EIS measurements. The SP oil adsorption not only was discovered to obey Langmuir isotherm but showed a chemical interaction as well. The computational methods such as density functional theory (DFT), Monte Carlo (MC) and radial distribution function (RDF) simulations were also performed to analyze the possible contribution of (Z)-heptadeca-10,16-dien-7-one (ZHD) to the corrosion prevention effect of global oil.
The aim of the present work is to evaluate the protective ability of newly menthone derivatives 7-isopropyl-4-methyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-indazole (HMP) and 7-isopropyl-4-methyl-1-phenyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-indazole (PMP) as mild steel corrosion inhibitors in 1M HCl, which may get applications as eco-friendly corrosion inhibitors in acidizing processes in the industry. The corrosion attitude of mild steel at various concentrations of the inhibitors was examined in the range from 298 to 328 K. An increase in the inhibitory effectiveness in acidic solution at higher concentration and temperature follow the existence of inhibitors. The aspect of adsorption mixed type of inhibitors was highlighted by the Polarization curves. The adsorption of HMP and PMP is in line with the Langmuir isotherm model. Theoretical indices study of both inhibitors (HMP and PMP) via CDFT (the conceptual density functional theory) has been studied. To search for the best spatial configuration of steel/inhibitor a Monte Carlo simulation studies were applied.
