Abstract A new aromatic Schiff base with azo linkage has been synthesized and characterized by FT-IR, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. The new compound 2-(((5-mercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)imino)methyl)-4-(p-tolyldiazenyl)phenol (5, denoted as AT) was tested as a carbon steel corrosion inhibitor in 1 M H2SO4. The presence of AT in 0.04 mM concentration at 303 K achieved excellent inhibition efficiency values, 96.6 and 97.4% by potentiodynamic polarization and weight loss measurements, respectively. The adsorption process of AT on carbon steel surface was found to obey Langmuir adsorption isotherm with the highest Kads value 476,190 M −1 at 313 K, and ΔG values −25.53, −26.49, −25.97, and −25.78) kJ mol−1 over the studied range of temperatures 303–333 K, indicating the spontaneous formation of stable protection film through a strong adsorption process. Density function theory (DFT) studies were employed for further investigations about the nature of the interaction between the molecules of AT (both of its tautomers) and metal surface. SEM and AFM analysis were used to confirm the inhibition by comparing the morphology of the corroded surface with the inhibited one.

Benzidine-based Schiff base compounds for employing as corrosion inhibitors for carbon steel in 1.0 M HCl aqueous media by chemical, electrochemical and computational methods

Metal corrosion is an important economic problem globally. One of the best ways to protect metal surfaces from corrosion is by the use of corrosion inhibitors, especially surfactants. This study assesses anticorrosion properties of three inhibitor compounds (S1, S2, and S3) of ethoxylate sulfanilamide containing 2, 10, and 20 units of ethylene oxide on carbon steel in 1 M HCl solution. The anticorrosive performance of S1, S2, and S3 was studied using potentiodynamic polarization (PDP), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), adsorption isotherm, surface tests (scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis), and computational studies (density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations) within the concentration range of 10-6 to 10-2 M at 30 ± 2 °C. The results of the methods used indicate that increasing the concentration of the inhibitor compounds improves the effectiveness of inhibition (from 50.9 to 98%), whereas the inhibition efficiency order for ethoxylated sulfanilamide compounds is S2 > S3 > S1 with the highest inhibiting efficiency, respectively, of 98.0, 95.0, and 90.0% for 10-2 M. Also, PDP indicated that S1, S2, and S3 inhibitors act as mixed-type inhibitors and their adsorption obeys the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. Surface tests show that the studied compounds can significantly inhibit acid attack via chemical adsorption on the metal. Furthermore, all of the chemical descriptors derived from DFT indicate that the three inhibitors are quite well adsorbed by the adhesion centers on the CS surface. The three compounds' molecular geometries and electronic structures were calculated using quantum chemical calculations. Using theoretical computations, the energy difference between the highest occupied molecular orbital and the lowest occupied molecular orbital has been determined to represent chemical reactivity and kinetic stability of a composition.

Anticorrosion Effect of Ethoxylate Sulfanilamide Compounds on Carbon Steel in 1 M Hydrochloric Acid: Electrochemical and Theoretical Studies.

Corrosion of iron in sodium chloride (3.5% wt) solutions and its inhibition by ethanedihydrazide (EH) have been reported. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic potentiodynamic polarization (CPP), and change of current with time at -475 mV (Ag/AgCl) measurements were employed in this study. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) techniques were utilized to report surface morphology and elemental analysis, respectively. The presence of 5 × 10-5 M EH was found to inhibit the corrosion of iron, and the effect of inhibition profoundly increased with an increase in EH concentration up to 1 × 10-4 M and further to 5 × 10-4 M. The low values of corrosion current and high corrosion resistance, which were obtained from the EIS, CPP, and change of current with time experiments, affirmed the adequacy of EH as a corrosion inhibitor for iron. Surface investigations demonstrated that the chloride solution without EH molecules causes severe corrosion, while the coexistence of EH within the chloride solution greatly minimizes the acuteness of chloride, particularly pitting corrosion.
