Abstract

The behavior of the corrosion inhibition of mild steel in a brine produced water saturated with carbon dioxide using 1, 3, 5, 7-tetraazaadamantane (TAA) as a heterocyclic organic inhibitor was investigated. Gravimetrical and electrochemical methods were used to determine corrosion rates and the experimental work were mathematically designed using Doehlert experimental design (DED). Corrosion rate was optimized as a function of TAA dosage, temperatures, and rotation rate. Maximum corrosion inhibition efficiency was 92% at optimum conditions. TAA was adsorbed chemically and spontaneously on metal surface according to Langmuir isotherm. These results were confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), optical microscopy, UV–Vis spectral, and FTIR techniques. Quantum chemical analysis was used as a theoretical tool. It was found that the protonated state of TAA was more efficient than the ground state.
