Abstract:
An environmentally friendly corrosion inhibitor was prepared from the bio-based platform 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. This corrosion inhibitor was confirmed to be an efficient mixed-type corrosion inhibitor through a weight loss experiment and electrochemical experiment. Both thermodynamic and kinetic parameters were calculated and discussed, indicating that the adsorption of this bio-based inhibitor on a steel surface is a chemisorption process. Moreover, quantum chemical calculations were performed and further confirmed the formation of an effective productive film of this bio-based inhibitor on the metal surface. It is worth noting that the synthesis route of this bio-based corrosion inhibitor is green and environmentally friendly, and does not involve toxic chemical reagents.
