Abstract  

The corrosion inhibition effect of nonionic surfactant coconut oleic acid diethanolamide (CDEA) on a cold rolled steel in 0.10 mol/L trichloroacetic acid (Cl3CCOOH) solution was studied by mass loss method, electrochemical test, surface morphology characterization (SEM and AFM) and contact angle tester,while the relation of the inhibition performance of CDEA with the surface tension and electrical conductivity of its solution was also studied.The results show that CDEA has obvious corrosion inhibition effect on CRS in Cl3CCOOH solution. The corrosion inhibition efficiency can reach as high as 95% for the CRS corrosion at 20 and 30 ℃ with the CDEA dose of only 20 mg/L. The corrosion inhibition performance increase with the increasing CDEA concentration, but decreases with the rising temperature. The adsorption of CDEA on the CRS surface is in accordance with the Langmuir adsorption, a spontaneous and exothermic process, and the standard free energy of Gibbs adsorption is -33.6--33.0 kJ/mol at 20-50 ℃. CDEA is a mixed corrosion inhibitor that inhibits both the cathodic hydrogen evolution and anodic dissolution, and the corrosion inhibition mechanism is "geometric coverage effect". With the addition of CDEA, the capacitive arc of Nyquist diagram is enlarged, and the charge transference increased. SEM and AFM micrographs further confirm that CDEA significantly inhibited the corrosion of CRS surface in Cl3CCOOH solution. Being treated by CDEA inhibitor, the surface of CRS shows strong hydrophobicity with a water contact angle of 100.66°. The surface tension of the solution decreased with the addition of CDEA, however after immersion test of the steel, the surface tension of the solution with CDEA turned to be higher, in the contrast to the original ones. the electrical conductivity of the solution increases with the concentration of CDEA and reached a peak near 50mg/L.
