Self-forming barrier layer for carbon dioxide corrosion protection of mild steel in NaCl solution containing hydroxychavicol isolated from Piper betle L. leaf

Hydroxychavicol compound was isolated from Piper betle L. leaf and identified via preparative high performance liquid chromatography (Prep-HPLC) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Hydroxychavicol compound was demonstrated to be a potential inhibitor for mild steel corrosion in carbon dioxide-containing environments due to the formation of a barrier layer on the steel surface. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) results indicated that the inclusion of hydroxychavicol in the aggressive environment made steel surfaces more homogeneous and smoother with a rough mean square roughness of 7.78 nm, whereas the steel surface was severely corroded in the blank solution. Moreover, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results showed an enrichment of hydroxychavicol species combined with iron oxides and hydroxides on the mild steel surface. This can lead to the creation of a protective layer on the mild steel surface, thereby enhancing corrosion protection and localized inhibition. The work suggested a novel approach to isolate corrosion inhibitors from natural products, particularly agricultural by-products for mild steel in carbon dioxide and chloride ion environment with high inhibition performance.

Effect of organic component (tartrate) addition on cerium nitrate's ability to inhibit corrosion of mild steel in NaCl solution

Cerium tartrate (CeTar), produced in this study by precipitating cerium nitrate with potassium sodium tartrate (KNaTar), was examined as a corrosion inhibitor. Weight loss tests show inhibition efficiency of 71.7% with Ce(NO3)3 and 88.7% with CeTar inhibitor for one-month exposure to mild steel in 7 g/L NaCl solution. The inhibition efficiency drops to 28.6% with the former and remains around 87% with the latter inhibitor after six months of exposure. Similar results from electrochemical testing indicate that the inhibition efficiency decreases by adding cerium nitrate. Still, the cerium tartrate inhibitor demonstrates a nearly constant inhibition efficiency for up to 30 d, i.e., ≈90%. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) performed in these cases shows the following results: (i) with cerium nitrate, a film of iron and cerium oxide, which on prolonged exposure diminishes, and (ii) with cerium tartrate, the formation of a bimetallic film (Fe-tartrate-Ce) and a mixture of cerium hydroxide and iron oxide that protects steel for a longer duration. These inferences are based on the analyses of scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM/EDAX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron (XPS), and Raman spectroscopy results.

Analysis of inhibitory properties of neodymium tartrate and comparison with neodymium chloride for mild steel in neutral sodium chloride solution

PurposeThis paper aims to investigate the eco-friendly neodymium tartrate (NdTar) inhibitor for mild steel in sodium chloride (NaCl) solution.Design/methodology/approachThe mild steel 1010 coupon was considered for the current study. Weight loss and the electrochemical methods were used to evaluate the inhibitory effects of neodymium chloride (NdCl3) and NdTar on mild steel in NaCl solution. Scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray analysis and attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy measurements were carried out to study the morphology and composition of the film, nature of deposits and corrosion products formed in test media on the corroded steel, with the objective of further analyzing the observed behavior of the two inhibitors.FindingsOf the two, NdTar performs better than NdCl3 because it shields mild steel surfaces for longer. According to the results, when NdCl3 is present in a corrosive solution, the protective film only comprises Nd/Fe oxide/hydroxide/carbonate. However, when neodymium is coupled with the tartrate group (an organic group) and then added to the NaCl solution, the inhibitor film comprises both bimetallic complexes (Fe-Tar-Nd) and metal oxide/hydroxide/carbonate, which results in a more compact film and has higher inhibition efficiency.Originality/valueThis study evaluated the combined effects of inorganic and organic inhibitors with those of an inorganic inhibitor used alone for mild steel in NaCl solution.

Corrosion inhibitive effects of calcium-modified zinc phosphate coating on A36 mild steel

In this work, the corrosion inhibitive performance of calcium modified zinc phosphate coating on A36 mild steel was studied. Treated A36 mild steel samples were subjected to coating through immersion in phosphating bath containing varied concentrations of calcium oxide (0–2.5 g/L) at different operating temperatures (60–80 °C) and immersion time (30–60 min). The coated samples were then subjected to corrosion tests (weight loss and inhibition efficiency determination) in 3.5% NaCl solution, to examine the anticorrosion behaviour of the coated mild steel in NaCl solution. The calcium modified phosphating process which was carried out at 80 °C with calcium concentration of 2.5 g/L gave a better and more uniform coating on A36 mild steel surface, as confirmed by visual inspection and SEM/EDS analysis. Also, Freundlich adsorption isotherm was found suitable for the prediction of the adsorption of both calcium and zinc particles on A36 mild steel, as indicated by the coefficient of determination (R2) values of approximately one. The adsorption of both the zinc and calcium particles on A36 mild steel was found to be spontaneous and physical process, as revealed by the values of Kads and ΔGads.

Study on the effect of imidazolium ionic liquid as a modulator of corrosion inhibition of anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) on mild steel in sodium chloride solution

Present paper reports investigation done on two organic compounds to test them as corrosion inhibitors for mild steel exposed to neutral NaCl solution. Organic compounds capable of corrosion inhibition must form a protective film over the metal surface. This is usually possible since many of these organic compounds possess strong interaction properties with metal and get adsorbed over its surface. These organic compounds contain electronegative functional groups and atoms like S, N, P, and O, which form center for establishment of adsorption process. Accordingly, SDS and DMImCl were chosen as organic compounds to test as corrosion inhibitors. Electrochemical polarization tests, performed in this study, reveal decrease in corrosion rate of mild steel in NaCl solution by 14.3 to 6.08 mpy (mils per year) corresponding to increased inhibition efficiency of 57.3% on addition of up to 200 ppm SDS. On mixing 200 ppm of DMImCl in NaCl + SDS solution, the inhibition efficiency enhances to 85.1%. Similar outcome is also noticed from Electrochemical impedance and weight loss test results. Analysis of results obtained through FTIR, SEM/EDAX indicate adsorption of SDS/DMImCl mixture on the mild steel surface.Tensiometry tests, on ionic solution, reveal decrease in surface tension on addition of inhibitors with consequently increased surface activity and hydrophobic interaction between chains of the two inhibitors. Calculation done on the adsorption process indicates it to be ‘Langmuir adsorption isotherm’. This inference suggests that binding sites on steel surface are identical and homogeneously distributed. This layer is covered with a monolayer of adsorbed molecules i.e. DMImCl and SDS which is responsible for corrosion inhibition.

Preparation and inhibition behavior of Fe3O4/MBT nanocomposite inhibitor for mild steel in NaCl solution

The hollow Fe3O4 microspheres were firstly synthesized by solvothermal method. And then Fe3O4/MBT nanocomposite inhibitor was obtained by loading 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) inhibitor under negative vacuum impregnation treatment and characterized using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms and vibrating sample magnetometer. The release behavior of MBT and inhibition behavior of Fe3O4/MBT nanocomposite under different magnetic field (MF) strength were evaluated by UV–vis spectroscopy, electrochemical techniques and immersion tests. The results show that the synthesized superparamagnetic Fe3O4/MBT nanocomposite shows high MBT loading capacity of 55.4 %. Under the application of MF, the release behavior of MBT from Fe3O4/MBT is dominated by Fickian diffusion and diffusion among magnetic nanoparticles, and the release rate and inhibition efficiency are less than that of without MF under the same release time. The nanocomposite has a good inhibition effect for carbon steel in NaCl solution with maximum inhibition efficiency of 95.7 %, and also possesses excellent recycling stability with loading capacity of 45.1 % and inhibition efficiency of 78.8 % after five cycles.

A systematic study has been made on the result of ZnO nano-coating for the corrosion behavior of mild steel. The ZnO nanoparticles of average diameter in the range 18-22 nm were coated on mild steel in nickel bath solution.

The ZnO nano coating has shown a perfect protection against corrosion and the shielding capability is in the range between 86-95%. The incorporation of ZnO nanoparticles has upgraded the process of mild steel in all corrosion media are subjected to investigation.

Caffeine as A Natural Corrosion Inhibitor for Mild Steel in Nacl Solution

Corrosion inhibitors are substances that added to the environment in small concentration and can effectively reduce the corrosion rate that of a metal surface. Natural inhibitors are one types of inhibitor being researched as it brings less environmental impact on the environment. This research was focused on the application of caffeine as inhibitor for corrosion of mild steel in seawater condition. The objective of this project was to develop the relationship between caffeine concentration on the corrosion of mild carbon steel in both static and moving solution contained 3.5-wt% NaCl. Three types of solution were prepared, which are NaCl without addition of caffeine, NaCl with 1-wt% of caffeine and NaCl with 2-wt% of caffeine. Corrosion testing was carried out by weight loss measurement. The microstructures of corroded mild steel specimens were observed under optical microscope. The experimental results indicated that by adding caffeine into the environment medium, weight loss of mild steel specimen was reduced. The corrosion rate of specimens was decreased when more caffeine was added to the environment. From optical microscopic observation, caffeine performed its inhibition effect likely by forming a protective layer which acts as barrier to prevent further corrosion of mild steel in NaCl solution.

Study of corrosion inhibition for mild steel in NaCl solution by propolis extract

This paper studies the corrosion inhibition of X52 5L carbon steel in 0.51 mol dm-3 sodium chloride solution in the presence of propolis extract. The inhibition efficiency of propolis extract in a chloride solution was tested by its adding to the working solution and by making a solid propolis coating on the electrode surface. The possibility of corrosion inhibition in the presence of propolis in flow conditions as well as at different temperatures was investigated by electrochemical methods: potentiodynamic polarization method and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. It was shown that propolis extract acts as a corrosion inhibitor of anodic type whose efficiency increases with increasing of temperature and with stirring of solution. The best protection is achieved by applying propolis coating in flow systems. The EIS method confirmed formation of a protective layer by adsorption of propolis extract on the electrode surface. The results of the FTIR, SEM and EDX surface tests are consistent with the results of electrochemical testing and suggest that propolis extract acts as a corrosion inhibitor of steel by forming a protective film on the electrode surface.

Effect of water-soluble chitosan on the electrochemical corrosion behaviour of mild steel

Abstract This article outlines the role of chitosan as a potent inhibitor on mild steel in 3.65% NaCl. The protective ability of chitosan was evaluated by potentiodynamic polarization (PP) measurements in 36.5% sodium chloride medium. The outcome of the experiment shows that mild steel in sodium chloride solution containing chitosan nanoparticles exhibit better corrosion protection than mild steel in NaCl solution alone because the anodic and cathodic site of the steel were blocked by chitosan nanoparticles, thereby minimising the incursion of the salt solution by forming a thin film on the mild steel surface. The inhibitive efficiency of chitosan nanoparticles was also studied using weight loss. The weight loss by mild steel in NaCl solution was found to be higher than those immersed in NaCl-chitosan nanoparticulate solutions. The loss in weight reduces as the concentration of chitosan nanoparticles increases, indicating the fortifying ability of chitosan nanoparticles. Results obtained show that chitosan could offer inhibition efficiency above 90%. The mixed inhibition characteristic of chitosan was demonstrated by the Tafel curve. The Langmuir isotherm possesses an R2 value of 0.9957 indicating the effectiveness of chitosan as an inhibitor.

PurposeThis paper aims to enhance the barrier properties and active protection of a water-based silane coating on mild steel through nanoclay and zinc acetylacetonate simultaneously included into the formulation.Design/methodology/approachThe corrosion protection performance of the silane sol-gel coatings with no additive, zinc acetylacetonate, nanoclay and nanoclay + zinc acetylacetonate was monitored using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy during 5 h of immersion in a sodium chloride solution. Moreover, the surface of coatings was analyzed using a field emission scanning electron microscopy equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (FESEM-EDX) and water contact angle measurements.FindingsIn electrochemical impedance spectroscopy analysis, the impedance at low frequencies, coating resistance and charge transfer resistance were the parameters considered which indicated the superiority of silane coating formulated with both nanoclay and zinc acetylacetonate. According to the results of FESEM/EDX and water contact angle measurements, the superiority was linked with the enhancement in the barrier properties in the presence of nanoclay, as well as function of the corrosion inhibitor at coating–substrate interface.Originality/valueAccording to the literature, there is no research conducted to study the impact of the simultaneous use of nanoclay and zinc acetylacetonate on the barrier properties and active protection of an eco-friendly silane sol-gel coating including glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, tetraethoxysilane and methyltriethoxysilane on mild steel in a sodium chloride solution.

CORROSION INHIBITION OF MILD STEEL IN NaCl AND HCl SOLUTIONS BY AMINO ACIDS EXTRACTED FROM SOYBEAN RESIDUE

The influence of some factors to extraction yield of amino acids from soybean residue (SR) was investigated. The composition of amino acids extracted from SR was determined by HPLC/MS-MS. The inhibitive effect of amino acids on mild steel in NaCl solution and HCl solution were investigated by potentiondyamic polarization. As a result, we found that the optimal condition to extract amino acids from SR with the yield of amino acids extraction was 47.10 % of the weight (based on the oven dried powder of SR), amino acids extracted from SR consist of 17 amino acids, and the mild steel inhibition efficiency of amino acids was 74.71 % in 3.5 % NaCl and 80.20 % in 0.5 M HCl.

Improvement in the protective performance of epoxy ester coating through inclusion of an effective hybrid green corrosion inhibitive pigment

Abstract The protection function of a new hybrid green corrosion inhibitive pigment based on zinc acetate (ZnA) and Urtica Dioica (U.D.) in solution and coating (epoxy ester) phases was studied by electrochemical techniques and surface analysis. The increased corrosion resistance of bare mild steel in NaCl solution with the hybrid pigment extract was associated with precipitation of a protective film whose composition was analyzed using SEM/EDX and XPS. EIS assessment of metallic samples covered by coatings with and without an artificial defect indicated the impact of the inhibiting species released from the organic/inorganic pigment particles on the active protection performance.

In this study, a novel one-pot procedure is introduced and the synthesizing process of PANI from aniline monomers is performed in PEG-modified epoxy to prevent agglomeration. Different concentrations of aniline monomer, ammonium peroxydisulfate and camphorsulfonic acid were considered in synthesis process to reach appropriate corrosion resistance. FTIR and TEM were employed to characterize epoxy/PANI–CSA coatings. Corrosion resistance of coatings were evaluated by Salt spray, OCP measurements and cyclic potentiodynamic polarization and EIS technique up to 134days after immersion into 3.5wt.% NaCl. An optimal concentration of aniline which presents best anticorrosive performance among the investigated groups is introduced.

The mixture of dicyclohexilamine and oleylamine as corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in NaCl solution saturated with CO2 under both continual immersion and top of the line corrosion

This paper presents a comprehensive method to evaluate the mixture of dicyclohexilamine and oleylamine (DCHA+OA) as corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in CO2 environment in liquid and vapor phase. Corrosion inhibitor volatile properties were investigated in order to determine if DCHA+OA can be used to control the severity of the top of the line (TLC) corrosion attack. Corrosion measurements were performed using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, linear polarization resistance, potentiodynamic sweep measurements, as well as the electrical resistance measurements and weight loss measurements, in order to determine the inhibitive performances of dicyclohexilamine and oleylamine. In order to define surface morphological characteristics scanning electron microscopy technique was applied. The electrochemical study and weight loss measurements indicated that DCHA+OA significantly decreased the corrosion rate in liquid phase when 50 ppm of DCHA+OA was added. Scanning electron microphotographs indicated protective inhibitor film has formed on the steel surface and revealed that good protection was achieved, along with the decrease in the corrosion rate determined by weight loss and electrochemical techniques. Using electrical resistance measurements in vapor phase it was shown that concentration of 1000 ppm DCHA+OA significantly decreased the corrosion rate at the top of the line, only when it was carried there within its own foam and not due its volatility.
