Abstract

Within this research project, we have analyzed petroleum acids as a basis of corrosion inhibitors. We conducted several laboratory experiments to define the best conditions to get maximum efficiency. First, we take combinations of fatty acids and polyethylene polyamine (PEPA) in a range of different molar ratios under different circumstances. We applied specific thermo humidity chamber, sea water and sulfuric acid solutions to create conditions which enhance corrosion rate. Then we went further to get higher efficiency, we added nitro compounds with different molar ratios. After presence of nitro-components, final experiment results were obtained. After completions of several experiments, we get best possible results when we applied reaction between imidazoline and residual fatty acids with nitro compound in a 1:2 mole ratio. It becomes clear that we need to keep specific molar ratio to enhance corrosion protection period. Keywords: conservation liquids, corrosion, inhibitors, corrosion inhibitors, imidazoline, fatty acids.
