The purpose of this paper is to use Dextrofosfomysin levophenethylamine salt to prepare HEHSPN-(Na)2 (HSPN), a new corrosion inhibitor containing sulfur.
The inhibition efficiency for Q235 steel in hydrochloric acid has been evaluated by weight-loss test, potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. Surface studies were performed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
The results show that inhibition efficiency of HSPN increases with an increase in concentration. Adsorption conforms to Flory–Huggins uniform temperature equation, which is multi-molecular layer adsorption and belongs to physical adsorption.
This paper is intended to be added to the family of papers that deal with green corrosion inhibitors which are highly efficient and can be used in the area of corrosion prevention and control.
