Abstract

Corrosion inhibition performances and adsorption behaviour at the aluminum-HCl solution interface were investigated for metal free (2), ClGa (3) and Co (4) tetrakis (4-acetamidophenoxy) phthalocyanine. Electrochemical techniques were used in the study and complemented with Fourier transform infrared, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction measurements. Potentiodynamic polarization technique gave inhibition efficiency values as 93.3% (2), 69.7% (3) and 87.7% (4) at 28°C at highest inhibitor concentration (10 µM) in the following order 2 > 4 > 3. These compounds exhibited good corrosion inhibition performance as mixed-type corrosion inhibitors. All applied techniques gave results which corroborated.
