Inhibitive Effect of Urea and Urea Derivatives on the Corrosion of Silver in Acetic Acid Solutions

Journal Title: JOURNAL OF ADVANCES IN CHEMISTRY - Year 2014, Vol 6, Issue 2

Abstract

The corrosion of silver in acetic acid was studied using potentiodynamic polarization technique in absence and presence of different concentrations of urea, thiourea and N-allylthiourea. The inhibition efficiency was found to depend on both the inhibitor type and concentration. The inhibitive action of these compounds is based on the formation of salt complex and/or the adsorption of the protonated species on the metal surface according to Temkin's isotherm. The thermodynamic parameters Kads and ΔG°ads for the adsorption process are calculated and discussed.
