Abstract

The pursuit of effective corrosion inhibition, both theoretically and experimentally, has a significant impact on the global GDP and climate-related actions in infrastructure management. This current study aims to explore the corrosion reduction and inhibition mechanisms of 1-butoxypropan-2-ol (C7H16O2) otherwise known as propylene glycol 1- monobutyl ether on mild steel coupons immersed in a marine solution containing 3.5 wt.% NaCl. Three different molar concentrations of the proposed inhibitors were investigated, revealing that the most effective corrosion prevention occurred at a concentration of 100 mM on mild steel coupons. The initial assessment of the inhibition capacity involved gravimetric weight loss measurements, demonstrating an impressive inhibition efficiency of approximately 98%. Additionally, electrochemical analysis using Potentiodynamic Polarization (PDP) and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) was conducted. The efficiency of the proposed inhibitor was determined to be around 67% and 78% after fitting the Nyquist and Tafel polarization plots, respectively. Despite the surfactant nature of the proposed inhibitor and the limited area considered for EIS, the results were deemed adequate and satisfactory based on the Tafel and EIS measurements. Microstructural studies were conducted using SEM images to detail variations in the morphology of the surface of both uninhibited and inhibited mild steel samples. The proposed inhibitor demonstrated satisfactory performance, evident through its presence on the surface and reduced NaCl accumulation on the mild steel. All tests were conducted at room temperature with a constant immersion time to ensure optimal outcomes.
