Corrosion inhibition performance of benzimidazole derivatives for protection of carbon steel in hydrochloric acid solution

This paper presents a comprehensive study on the corrosion inhibition properties of new organic compounds, (1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)methanethiol (LF1) and 1-dodecyl-2-((dodecylthio)methyl)-1H-benzimidazole (LF2), have been examined for inhibiting of Carbon-Steel (C.S) in 1.0 M HCl. Numerous methods, such as potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, atomic force microscopy (AFM), contact angle measurements, UV-visible spectroscopy, and theoretical calculations, were used to evaluate the effectiveness in preventing corrosion. The two benzimidazoles (LF1 and LF2)' inhibitory efficacy rose as their concentration increased, peaking at 88.2% and 95.4% respectively. The polarization graphs show a mixed behavior, with anodic predominance for LF1 and cathodic predominance for LF2. Thermodynamic investigations showed that the values of ΔG ads were -40.0 kJ mol-1 for LF1 and -43.1 kJ mol-1 for LF2, highlighting their strong adsorption onto the metal surface. Their adsorption process was in line with the Langmuir isotherm. Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Molecular Dynamics (MD) modeling have been utilized to examine and clarify the relationship between the inhibitor and carbon steel (C.S).

Experimental and Computational Anticorrosion Behaviors of Pyrazole s-Triazine/anilino-morpholino Derivatives for Steel in Acidic Solutions

The corrosion inhibition of C-steel by two s-triazine/morpholino-anilino-pyrazole derivatives, namely, 4-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-6-morpholino-N-phenyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-amine (1) and N-(4-bromophenyl)-4-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-6-morpholino-1,3,5-triazin-2-amine (2) was investigated by impedimetric and potentiometric studies. It was found that (1) and (2) acted as cathodic-type corrosion inhibitors that retard the hydrogen evolution reaction. The percent corrosion inhibition, 98.5% for compound (2) (with bromo substituent) at 80 ppm, was slightly higher than 97.8% for (1) at 100 ppm. Thus, the replacement of a -H with -Br substituent increased the corrosion inhibition properties. Compound (2) exhibited Temkin isotherm adsorption, whereas compound (1) exhibited Langmuir adsorption. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis of the steel surface indicated that the inhibitors caused protection of the surface. The weight loss experiment also proved the decrease in the corrosion rate when inhibitors were added. The difference in inhibitory efficiency between compounds (1) and (2) was investigated by density functional theory (DFT) to study neutral and protonated species in gaseous and aqueous phases. The theoretical analysis demonstrated that compound (2) exhibited higher inhibitory activity on a metal surface compared to compound (1), aligning with the experimental results. The energy associated with the metal/adsorbate arrangement, represented by dE ads/dNi , was higher for (2) (-380.91 kcal mol-1) compared to (1) (-371.64 kcal mol-1). This indicated better adsorption of (2) over (1).

From the foregoing survey, it seems this provides a useful and convenient strategy for the synthesis of numerous heterocyclic derivatives. The subject of such reactions is still ongoing and undoubtedly will provide new fused functionalized compounds of both industrial and biological interest. A literature survey revealed that a great deal of interest has been focused on the synthesis of functionalized heterocyclic compounds due to their wide range of biological activities, such as contact dermatitis, anthelmintic, antiviral, antimicrobial, herbicidal, and anti-cancer.

The aim of the present survey is to consider in the reader the opportunity interactions and biological activities of hydrazonoyl halides. The information of several artificial paths and varied physics-chemical factors of such heterocycles made a special consideration of chemists in different fields to yield a combinatorial library and carry out thorough efforts in the search for hydrazonoyl halides.

Role of SnO2 Nanoparticles for a Self-Forming Barrier Layer on a Mild Steel Surface in Hydrochloric Acid Medium Containing Piper betle Leaf Extract

The self-formation of a porous organic thin-film via corrosion inhibitor supports wide applications of carbon steel in industry. Unfortunately, serious damages could be concentrated to the pinhole and/or pore locations in the porous organic film, resulting in the localized corrosion even when an optimal concentration of organic corrosion inhibitors is used. In this work, SnO₂ nanoparticles are used for producing the more robust barrier layer via the self-migration of nanoparticles, resulting in a higher corrosion resistance, smooth and uniform protective layer, as well as the existence of SnO₂ in the protective layer that could directly affect the high inhibition performance. Therefore, the work suggests a new way to make a more robust thin film that could extend the use of organic corrosion inhibitors.

Synthesis and Characterization of Zn-Organic Frameworks Containing Chitosan as a Low-Cost Inhibitor for Sulfuric-Acid-Induced Steel Corrosion: Practical and Computational Exploration

In this work, a Zn-benzenetricarboxylic acid (Zn@H3BTC) organic framework coated with a dispersed layer of chitosan (CH/Zn@H3BTC) was synthesized using a solvothermal approach. The synthesized CH/Zn@H3BTC was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), and Brunauer, Emmett, and Teller (BET) surface area. The microscopic observation and the analysis of the BET surface area of CH/Zn@H3BTC nanocomposites indicated that chitosan plays an important role in controlling the surface morphology and surface properties of the Zn@H3BTC. The obtained findings showed that the surface area and particle size diameter were in the range of 80 m2 g-1 and 800 nm, respectively. The corrosion protection characteristics of the CH/Zn@H3BTC composite in comparison to pristine chitosan on duplex steel in 2.0 M H2SO4 medium determined by electrochemical (E vs. time, PDP, and EIS) approaches exhibited that the entire charge transfer resistance of the chitosan- and CH/Zn@H3BTC-composite-protected films on the duplex steel substrate was comparatively large, at 252.4 and 364.8 Ω cm2 with protection capacities of 94.1% and 97.8%, respectively, in comparison to the unprotected metal surface (Rp = 20.6 Ω cm2), indicating the films efficiently protected the metal from corrosion. After dipping the uninhabited and protected systems, the surface topographies of the duplex steel were inspected by FESEM. We found the adsorption of the CH/Zn@H3BTC composite on the metal interface obeys the model of the Langmuir isotherm. The CH/Zn@H3BTC composite revealed outstanding adsorption on the metal interface as established by MD simulations and DFT calculations. Consequently, we found that the designed CH/Zn@H3BTC composite shows potential as an applicant inhibitor for steel protection.

Novel environmentally-friendly corrosion inhibitors based on primary aminated modified cellulose (PAC) containing nano-oxide of some metals (MONPs), for instance iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe₃O₄NPs), copper oxide nanoparticles (CuONPs), and nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiONPs), were successfully synthesized. The as-prepared PAC/MONPs nanocomposites were categorized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), transmission electron microscope (TEM), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and selected area diffraction pattern (SAED) techniques. The data from spectroscopy indicated that successful formation of PAC/MONPs nanocomposites, as well as the TEM images, declared the synthesized PAC/Fe₃O₄NPs, PAC/CuONPs, and PAC/NiONPs with regular distribution with particle size diameters of 10, 23 and 43 nm, respectively. The protection performance of the as-prepared PAC and PAC/MONPs nanocomposites on the corrosion of C-steel in molar HCl was studied by the electrochemical and weight-loss approaches. The outcomes confirmed that the protection power increased with a rise in the [inhibitor]. The protection efficiency reached 88.1, 93.2, 96.1 and 98.6% with 250 ppm of PAC/CuONP, PAC/Fe₃O₄NPs, and PAC/NiONPs, respectively. PAC and all PAC/MONPs nanocomposites worked as mixed-kind inhibitors and their adsorption on the C-steel interface followed the isotherm Langmuir model. The findings were reinforced by FT-IR, FE-SEM and EDX analyses.
