Abstract
The adsorption behavior and inhibition mechanism of (1, 4, 7-Tris [hydrogen (6-methylpyridin-2-yl) phosphonate] -1, 4, 7-triazacyclononane) (TPP) on the corrosion of mild steel in 1 M HCl were investigated by weight loss technique, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) methods for different concentrations at 25°C. The results show that the inhibition efficiency values depend on the amount of immersion times and the concentration. A 90% efficiency is found at the highest concentration of the studied compound according to weight loss measurements. The adsorption of the investigated inhibitor on the mild steel surface was well supported using an AFM study. For the assignment of the absorption sites, we performed quantum chemical calculations with (DFT) method. The interaction between the inhibitor and iron surface were performed by molecular dynamic (MD) simulations. In this paper, experimental methods and results used to assess the efficiency of the studied compound are presented.
