Abstract
Novel 1,3-diamino-propylene derivatives as potential corrosion inhibitors for copper nanoparticles has been studied by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR), thermogravimetric and Zeta potential analysis. 1,3-Dimorpholin-propylene was considered to be the most promising inhibitor for copper nanoparticles. Thermogravimetric results indicated the oxidation temperature of copper nanoparticles decreased from 286.50 oC (blank) to 270.1 oC (inhibitor). FTIR spectra indicated the addition of inhibitor could optimize the adsorption behavior of surfactant molecules on the surface of copper nanoparticles. Zeta potential results showed 1,3-dimorpholin-propylene could improve the stability of copper nanoparticles (~0 mV for blank, and -2.5 mV for inhibitor).
