Electrochemical Study on the Inhibition Effect of Phenanthroline and Its Cobalt Complex as Corrosion Inhibitors for Mild Steel

Abstract: The corrosion inhibition effect of phenanthroline (Phen) and its cobalt complex (CoPhen) on the corrosion of carbon steel in sulphuric acid solutions was studied using potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques at 20, 30, and 40°C. Scanning electron microscopy techniques were used to characterize the mild steel surface. The results indicate that the compounds inhibit the corrosion of mild steel in H 2 SO 4 solutions through a predominant physical adsorption following the… Show more

“…The results obtained from the electrochemical measurements are in reasonable agreement and confirm once more that Phenanthroline shows good inhibition performance (above 95%) for cast iron in hydrochloric acid solution. A comparison of corrosion inhibition efficiency of phenanthroline with various phenanthroline derivatives reported as corrosion inhibitors is presented in Table 2 [22][23][24][25][48][49][50][51][52].…”

“…Obi-egbedi et al have tested a synthetized Phenanthroline derivative as a corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 solution [24]. Furthermore, Xia Liu et al [25] have studied the effect of Phenanthroline and its cobalt complex on the corrosion of mild steel in 0.1 M H 2 SO 4 solution. However, an overview of the literature revealed that few studies were devoted to the corrosion inhibition of various categories of cast iron in acidic medium.…”

“…The standard free energy of adsorption (ΔG 0 ads ) is obtained according to the following equation 45 : For ΔG ads ≤-20 kJ mol -1 , the organic molecules are physisorbed on metallic surface, whereas for ΔG ads ≥-40 kJ mol -1 , the inhibitory molecules are chemisorbed on metallic surface by charge sharing or transfer 46 . In this study, the calculated value of ΔG ads is -43.68 kJ mol -1 , thus 2,2'-bipyridyl adsorption is spontaneous and chemisorption.…”
