Popis: | Polymers are materials composed of macromolecules characterized by duplicates of smaller molecules that are covalently bonded together to provide a set of properties. Corrosion inhibition by such compounds is usually attributed to their adsorption on the metal-solution interface. The inhibition effect of different sizes of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) on the corrosion of carbon steel (C-steel) in solutions of perchloric acid was investigated. The inhibition efficiency increases as the size of the inhibitor and its concentration increases, but decreases as the temperature increases and can reach a value of 81.53% and 5.0x10^-3 mol L^-1(PVP: 58,000 g mol^-1) at 30°C. The most remarkable inhibition efficiency was confirmed by the presence of the film formed on the metal surface by scanning electron microscopy. The kinetic and thermodynamic parameters for the corrosion of C-steel and adsorption of the inhibitor were determined and discussed. The combination of PVP with potassium iodide produced a strong synergistic effect on the inhibition of C-steel corrosion leading to a significant improvement in the inhibition efficiency. Quantum chemical parameters were studied using density functional theory to determine the possible relationship between the inhibitor and its electronic properties. |
