hree gemini cationic surfactant with different hydrophobic tails labeled GSBO, GSBD, and GSBH based azomethine and pyridine nuclei have been synthesized and confirmed spectroscopy via FTIR, 1HNMR, and mass spectroscopy. The surface and thermodynamic study were conducted via measurement the surface tension measurements at different temperatures for well examining their corrosion inhibition efficiency. The affinity of the GSBO, GSBD, and GSBH toward micelle formation and adsorption at interface were hydrophobic and temperature dependent. The C-steel corrosion suppression via the synthesized GSBO, GSBD, and GSBH in 1 M H2SO4 were evaluated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, weight loss and polarization techniques, demonstrating their efficient affinity to mitigate the steel corrosion. Increasing the surfactant hydrophobicity exhibit higher ability to suppress the corrosion … |
