1‐formyl‐3‐phenyl‐5‐aryl‐2‐pyrazoline derivatives as corrosion inhibitors of steel in acidic medium: Computational simulation sstudy
Journal Title: Journal of New technology and Materials - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
Quantum chemical calculations and Molecular dynamic (MD) simulations were performed on two synthesized pyrazoline derivatives namely: 1‐Formyl‐3‐phenyl‐5‐(4‐methylphenyl)‐2‐pyrazoline (P1) and 1‐Formyl‐3‐phenyl‐ 5‐(4‐chlorophenyl) ‐2‐pyrazoline (P2) in order to study their reactivity and adsorption behavior towards steel corrosion. Quantum chemical parameters such as EHOMO, ELUMO, energy gap (ΔE), fraction of electron transfers (ΔN) and Fukui index have been studied. Moreover, Molecular dynamics simulation is performed to simulate the best adsorption configuration of the investigated inhibitors on Fe (1 1 0) surface. DFT results indicate that the active sites of the molecules were mainly located on the pyarazoline ring and on the carbonyl group. The binding strength of the studied inhibitor molecules on Fe surface follows the order P1>P2, which is in good agreement with the results of quantum chemical calculations.

A study of C(V) characteristics of capacitors containing high-k oxides and high mobility carriers semi-conductors
In this work, we proceeded to the analysis of C(V) characteristics of MOS capacitors (Metal-oxide-semi-conductor) with metal gates. Within the framework of the search for new materials, we have studied C(V) characteristi...
Modification of the Thermally Exfoliated Vermiculite by Sonication and Grafting Methods
In the present study, the thermally exfoliated vermiculite has been sonicated in order to grafting with the butyl-imidazolium. A suspension of vermiculite-water with 1% of concentration was sonicated at 20 KHz. This led...
Numerical simulation of the crystal growth of Ti:Al2O3 material by the µ-PD Technology
In this work we have studied the growth of titanium doped sapphire using the micro-pulling down (µ-PD) technique; we established a numerical, two-dimensional finite volume model in cylindrical coordinates with an axi...
Antibacterial effects and fastness properties of dyed silk fabric with curcumin in presence of organic and bio mordants
Curcumin, a common natural dye used for fabric and food colorations, was used as an antimicrobial finish due to its bactericidal properties on dyed textiles. In thiswork, silk fabrics were treated with curcumin andmordan...
Predicted theoretical efficiency fornew intermediate band solar cells (IBSC) based on GaAs1-xNx
Intermediate band solar cells are one type of third generation photovoltaic devices. Indeed, the increase in the power conversion efficiency is achieved through the absorption of low energy photons while preserving a lar...
