The effect of the addition of some quinazoline derivatives on the corrosion of stainless steel 304 (SS 304) in hydrochloric acid medium was investigated using electrochemical frequency modulation (EFM), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization, and weight reduction measurements, The inhibition efficiency increases with increasing the inhibitor concentration, but decreases with increasing the temperature. The adsorption of these compounds on the stainless steel 304 surface follows Langmuir isotherm. Potentiodynamic polarization studies showed that these compounds are mixed-type inhibitors. The results obtained from all the measurements are in good agreement. The effect of temperature in the range 298-328 K on the corrosion of stainless steel 304 in 1 M HCl was tested and thermodynamic parameters were computed and discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
