INHIBITIVE ACTION OF IMIDAZOLES FOR COPPER CORROSION IN SULFURIC ACID MEDIUM

Journal Title: JOURNAL OF ADVANCES IN CHEMISTRY - Year 2015, Vol 11, Issue 3

Abstract

The corrosion inhibition of copper in the presence of 10-3 M of imidazole derivatives; Imidazole (IM), 2-Methyle imidazole (MIM), Benzimidazole (BIM) has been investigated in 1.0 M H2SO4 solution using  potentiodynamic  polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Relationship between molecular structure and their inhibition efficiency was elucidated by quantum chemical calculations using the density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level. Inhibition efficiency of these compounds which has been evaluated via experimental methods was accorded with reported theoretical ones, and following the same order as BIM ˃ MIM ˃ IM.
