Abstract
Anti-corrosive propensity of Prosopis cineraria extract on the corrosion behavior of copper (Cu) in nitric acid (HNO3) medium was investigated by applying gravimetric technique. Corrosion inhibition efficiency of Prosopis cineraria was observed to enhance with increasing concentration of extract and reduce with elevation in temperature. The inhibitor underwent physisorption on the Cu metal surface. Adsorption characteristics were approximated by Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Highest inhibition efficiency (η%) 86.12 % was obtained at 303±1 K in fruit extract. It was observed that the extract acts as a benign potential corrosion inhibitor for Cu corrosion in 1.0 M HNO3 acid solution. Results revealed that existence of Prosopis cineraria extract enhances the energy of activation (Ea) of corrosion reaction. Adsorption parameters such as kinetic and thermodynamic [Gibbs free energy change (ΔG0ads) and adsorption equilibrium constant (Kads)] of adsorption process were determined from experimental data. These parameters show a strong interaction between surface of copper metal and inhibitor extract. The inhibitor adsorption process on surface of copper was found to be physical, exothermic and spontaneous. The surface morphology and characterization of copper was done by applying scanning electron microscope (SEM).
采用重量法研究了蜈蚣草提取物的防腐倾向对硝酸(HNO3)介质中铜(Cu)腐蚀行为的影响。研究结果表明,随着浸提液浓度的增加,木犀草的缓蚀效果增强,随着浸提液温度的升高,缓蚀效果降低。缓蚀剂在铜金属表面发生物理吸附。吸附特性用Langmuir等温线近似表征。果实提取物在303±1 K时的抑制率最高,η%为86.12%。结果表明,该提取物在1.0 M HNO3酸溶液中对Cu具有良好的缓蚀剂作用。结果表明,棘豆提取物的存在提高了腐蚀反应的活化能。根据实验数据确定了吸附过程的动力学和热力学参数[Gibbs自由能变化(ΔG0ads)和吸附平衡常数(Kads)]。这些参数表明金属铜表面与缓蚀剂之间存在较强的相互作用。发现缓蚀剂在铜表面的吸附过程是物理的、放热的、自发的。利用扫描电子显微镜(SEM)对铜的表面形貌进行了表征。
