Summary

A study has been made to investigate the effect of some azoheterocyclic dyes of the type 3-arylazo 1,2,4-triazole (AT) on the corrosion of copper exposed to 0.5M nitric acid solution at different temperatures and at differentAT concentrations. Using potentiodynamic polarization andTafel electrochemical methods, it can be shown thatAT compounds are good inhibitors of copper corrosion in HNO3 solution. The kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of the inhibited system were determined. The high inhibition efficiency of these compounds may be due to the adsorption of the additive itself and/or the adsorption of the formed Cu(II)-AT complexes at the polarized electrode interface. Cathodic polarization measurements showed thatAT dyes are predominantly cationic inhibitors.

Zusammenfassung

Der Effekt einiger azoheterocyclischer Farbstoffe des Typs 3-Arylazo-1,2,4-triazol (AT) auf die Korrosion von Kupfer in 0.5M Salpetersäure bei verschiedenen Temperaturen und unterschiedlichenAT-Konzentrationen wurde untersucht. Potentiodynamische Polarisation und elektrochemische Methoden nachTafel zeigen, daß Verbindungen vom TypAT gute Korrosionsinhibitoren für Kupfer gegenüber HNO3 sind. Die kinetischen und thermodynamischen Parameter des inhibierten Systems wurden bestimmt. Die hohe inhibitorische Wirksamkeit der untersuchten Verbindungen kann auf die Adsorption des Additivs selbst oder auf jene des Cu(II)-AT-Komplexes an der polarisierten Elektrodenoberfläche zurückzuführen sein. Kathodenpolarisationsmessungen zeigen, daßAT-Farbstoffe vorwiegend kationische Inhibitoren sind.
