摘要
In view of the significant inhibiting effect of environmentally friendly compounds, Atovaquone [trans-2-[4-(4-chlorophenyl)cyclohexyl]-3-hydroxy1,4-naphthalenedione (CCHN)] and Proguanil hydrochloride [1-(4-chlorophenyl)-5-isopropylbiguanide hydrochloride (CIBH)] were employed in this work. The inhibitive efficacy of the two compounds was investigated by means of open circuit potential (OCP), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization (PDP), respectively. Both compounds were found to be very potent in slowing the rate of deterioration of mild steel in the studied environment. The inhibitors inhibited both the anodic and cathodic reactions in a mixed-type manner. CCHN, on the other hand, proved to be more effective than CIBH, with a maximum inhibition efficiency of 95.5% compared to CIBH's inhibition efficiency of 89.7%. The obtained result was validated using the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The theoretical adsorption of the inhibitors on the iron slab cleaved at 110 angle [Fe (110)] surface was evaluated, and CCHN was found to have a higher adsorption strength, correlating with the experimental findings. Surface investigation techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron diffraction X-ray (EDX) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used to supplement the experimental and theoretical research. The results of the experiments show that the proposed techniques have the ability to appropriately depict performance indicators within the ranges of the components under consideration. The procedure outlined will aid in the development of a suitable strategy to future tests. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.
