In this paper the anti-bacterial and the anti-corrosion effect of two different ionic liquids, namely 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3-methylimidazolinium chloride ([OH-EMIm]Cl) and 1-ethyl-3-methyleimidazolinium chloride ([EMIm]Cl) was demonstrated. The results revealed that the corrosion inhibition influence of the ionic liquid [OH-EMIm]Cl is higher than that of the ionic liquid [EMIm]Cl. Furthermore, the ionic liquid [OH-EMIm]Cl showed better biocidal influence compared with the ionic liquid [EMIm]Cl. This indicates the synergistic effect due to the incorporation of the hydroxyl group into the side chain of the imidazolium cation leading to enhanced antibacterial and anticorrosion effect.

In the present study, the inhibition performance of two synthesized hydrazone derivatives (HDZs), namely, (E)-N′-(2,4-dimethoxybenzylidene)-2-(6-methoxynaphthalen-2-yl) propanehydrazide (HYD-1) and N′-cyclohexylidene-2-(6-methoxynaphthalen-2-yl) propanehydrazide (HYD-2) on mild steel (MS) in 1.0 M HCl was investigated using weight loss measurements, electrochemical techniques, and scanning electron microscope (SEM) coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The experimental data suggested that the hydrazone derivatives exhibited a high inhibition performance, which increases with increasing their concentrations. HYD-1 and HYD-2 presented maximum inhibition efficiencies of 96% and 84%, respectively, at an optimal concentration of 5 × 10–3 M. The principal observations that resulted from electrochemical studies are that HYDs affected both anodic and cathodic reactions (mixed inhibitors). Their adsorption, which is a combination of chemisorption and physisorption, obeyed the Langmuir isotherm model. Furthermore, the temperature effect was carried out at various temperatures ranging from 303 to 333 K to verify the corrosion inhibition performance of HYD-1 at higher temperatures. Moreover, SEM-EDX analysis confirmed that HYDs can ensure remarkable prevention against corrosion through the adsorption onto the metal surface.

Constructing molecular assembly between a soluble cyclodextrin polymer (SCDP) and an anticorrosive component is conducive to increasing the availability of a corrosion inhibitor with low molecular polarity in aqueous solution. The SCDP was prepared via the weak crosslinking effect of glutaraldehyde using β-cyclodextrin as the subunit, whose structure was confirmed by proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectra (1H NMR), X-ray diffraction and morphology. An assembly between SCDP (host) and trans-cinnamaldehyde (guest, CA) was constructed, and the intermolecular interactions were disclosed by Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR). The corrosion inhibition of SCDP/CA assembly for mild steel in 3.5% NaCl solution was assessed through electrochemical and surface analyses. 1H NMR results showed that exterior hydroxyls of β-cyclodextrin were the active sites for crosslinking. Hydrogen bonds might be the binding force between SCDP and CA according to FTIR analyses. Electrochemical measurements revealed that SCDP/CA assembly could suppress both cathodic and anodic reactions and enhance the polarization impedance for mild steel in the corrosive medium with a maximum efficiency of 92.2% at 30 °C. Surface analyses showed that CA molecules could be released from the assembly followed by the energy competition mechanism, and solely adsorb on the steel surface in parallel form, which was further evidenced by theoretical modeling.

Chromate free corrosion inhibitors are searched for to mitigate the economic loss caused by mid-steel corrosion. Here, we show metal-free organic inhibitors having free coumarate anions that can be used either as direct corrosion inhibitors or incorporated into a polymer coating obtained by UV-curing. Four different ionic liquid monomers and polymer coatings with hexoxycoumarate anion and different polymerizable counter cations were investigated. Potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and surface analyses have verified their corrosion inhibition performance on a mild steel AS1020 surface. In the case of the coumarate ionic liquid monomers, the most promising inhibitor is the one coupled with the ammonium cation, showing an inhibition efficiency of 99.1% in solution followed by the imidazolium, pyridinium, and anilinium. Next, the ionic liquid monomers were covalently integrated into an acrylic polymer coating by UV-photopolymerization. In this case, the barrier effect of the polymer coating is combined with the corrosion inhibitor effect of the pendant coumarate anion. Here, the best polymer coatings are those containing 20% imidazolium and pyridinium cations, presenting a greater impedance in the EIS (Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy) measurements and less evidence of corrosion in the scribe tests. This article shows that the cationic moiety of coumarate based ionic liquids and poly(ionic liquid)s has a significant effect on their excellent corrosion inhibition properties for a mild steel surface exposed to aqueous chloride solutions.
