Electrochemical behavior of brass and inhibitory effect of L-cysteine in HCl solution are investigated using electrochemical techniques in addition to SEM-EDS analysis. Results show that inhibition efficiency depends on inhibitor concentration and immersion time of brass electrode in inhibitor solution. Electrochemical test results point to formation of Cu(I)-cysteine complex on the brass surface in chloride solutions with addition of different amounts of cysteine. The formed complex has an important role in inhibition of the corrosion process in the examined media because Cu(I)-cysteine significantly reduces dissolution of brass. Curves obtained in acidic solution in the presence of cysteine after pretreatment in sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) by cyclic measurements and potentiodynamic polarization measurements indicate intense inhibition of corrosion processes. Efficient inhibition of brass dissolution is result of formation of a stable protective layer on the brass surface after pretreatment of the electrode in SDS solution. The brass surface is modified in sodium dodecyl sulfate solution in order to increase cysteine adsorption on the electrode surface and to improve inhibition efficiency. Inhibition mechanism of cysteine includes adsorption on active sites on the electrode surface, which is confirmed by SEM-EDS analysis of brass. Adsorption of cysteine in hydrochloric acid solution obeys the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Also, Gibbs free energy of adsorption has a value of −31.5 kJ/mol and indicates strong adsorption of cysteine on the electrode surface.

Abstract The effects of adenine, salicylaldoxime and 4(5)-methylimidazole on brass corrosion in NaCl were investigated. The investigation comprised electrochemical techniques, scanning electron microscopy and quantum chemical calculation. The results obtained by polarization measurements show that the examined compounds successfully inhibited the corrosion of brass. Additionally, the quantum mechanical calculations indicate that there is a correlation between energy gap and inhibition efficiency. Moreover, the inhibition mechanism includes the adsorption of the inhibitor on active sites on the electrode surface, which was confirmed by SEM-EDS analysis of the brass.

In the present study, Ni / Fe nanoparticles were synthesized using bound micelles as a template and 3, 3′, 4, 4′-tetrachlorobiphenyl (PCB77) as the target contaminant. The dual bound micelles, which are composed of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), were found to be superior to single-component templates for the dispersion of metallic ions and thus directed the synthesis of Ni / Fe nanoparticles with improved properties. After characterization of the different nanoparticles, it was found that the sustained effectiveness of PVP–SDS bound micelles afforded specialized structures with two gradations of Ni / Fe nanoparticles, correlating to more active sites and higher activity. The improved activity of the Ni / Fe nanoparticles was finally exhibited by the higher ratio (99.3% in 72 h) and efficiency (k obs of 0.0674 h-1) of PCB77 removal. Herein, the utilization of PVP–SDS bound micelles is proposed as a template for the improvement of iron-based nanoparticles and correlated research.

Kinetics of Cr(III) ions electroreduction in a deep eutectic solvent (ethaline) was studied by using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The influence of water and sodium dodecyl sulfate on the kinetic parameters was established. The developed equivalent circuit included polarization resistance of the electrochemical reaction, constant phase element and finite Warburg impedance. The respective parameters of the accepted equivalent circuit were calculated and discussed. The obtained results indicated that the charge transfer is a rate-determining step of an electrochemical reaction occurring on a heterogeneous electrode surface. An increase in content of water in electrolytes resulted in an increase in polarization resistance, indicating the deceleration of Cr(III) ions electroreduction due to the changes in Cr(III) speciation. In addition, the introduction of extra water caused an increase in the value of a capacitive component of electrochemical impedance because of a rearrangement of the double electrical layer. The polarization resistance of Cr(III) ion discharge was increased in the presence of sodium dodecylsulfate in electrolyte due to adsorption of dodecylsulfate anion on the electrode surface. A Warburg impedance component disappeared in electrolytes containing relatively high water content, which was associated with corresponding reduction of solution viscosity and acceleration of diffusion mass transfer.
