Electrochemical Investigation of Myclobutanil as Corrosion Inhibitor for Copper in Acid Medium

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper is mainly to discuss that myclobutanil as corrosion inhibitor and its corrosion efficiency were evaluated via electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization. The potentiodynamic polarization measurements showed that the inhibition efficiency increases sharply with the increasing of concentration of myclobutanil, and the highest inhibition efficiency of the myclobutanil reached 84.3% at 3.2×10-4 mol/L in 1 mol/L HCl. The result also indicated that myclobutanil belongs to the mixed type inhibitor. The results obtained from EIS measurements are in good agreement with that obtained from potentiodynamic polarization.

[75] 9 Electrochemical impedance spectroscope Fig. 3 shows the Nyquist diagram of copper electrode in the solution containing different concentrations of myclobutanil at 293K. Compared with the blank solution, the curves of the Nyquist diagrams with the myclobutanil shifted obviously and the impedance arc diameter get enlargement with increasing the concentration of myclobutanil. Fig. 4 shows the equivalent circuit of the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.  Rs represents the resistance of the solution, Rct is the charge transfer resistance, Rf stands for the film resistor, Cdl and Cf are double layer capacitance and film capacitor, respectively. W is the Warburg impedance which is caused by the diffusion of water soluble substances. Each element's data is in Table 2. The inhibition efficiency IE% with myclobutanil in different concentration is calculated by the following formula [4]: Fig. 3.

[84] 3 Conclusion Myclobutanil is an effective inhibitor for corrosion of copper in acid medium at 293K. It can inhibit the copper corrosion by forming the adsorption protective film on metal surface [5]. The potentiodynamic polarization measurements showed that both cathodic and anodic processes of copper corrosion were suppressed and the myclobutanil acts as a mixed-type inhibitor. It is obviously that inhibition efficiency depended on inhibitor concentration and the corrosion efficiency reached the highest point at 3. 2×10-4 mol/L in 1mol/L HCl solution.
