Abstract
The effect of an aromatic hydrazide derivative 4-hydroxyl-N′-[(3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl) methylidene] benzohydrazide] (HMBH) as inhibitor for the corrosion of carbon steel in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution was investigated in the temperature range of 303 K to 323 K using potentiodynamic polarization (PDP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The concentration of HMBH used was in the range of 0.1 to 1 mM. Inhibition efficiency (% IE) increased with increase in concentration of HMBH and decreased with increase in temperature. Maximum % IE obtained was around 71 with 1 \(\times \) 10-3 M HMBH in 0.5 M H2SO4 at 303 K. The Tafel polarization results indicate that HMBH acted as a mixed type of inhibitor. The results of evaluation of thermodynamic and activation parameters suggest the mixed adsorption of HMBH took place by physisorption, and it obeyed Freundlich’s isotherm. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force spectroscopy (AFM) images were also recorded to supplement the results of electrochemical studies, and mechanism for corrosion inhibition was suggested.

Introduction
Carbon steel (CS) being one of the important engineering materials in existence has wide applications in industrial fields due to its exceptional mechanical properties and low cost. It is widely used in large tonnages as construction materials in many industries, marine and chemical process equipment [1, 2]. Dilute solutions of mineral acids like HCl and H2SO4 are commonly used in many industries for descaling, pickling, petrochemical processes and oil-well acidification. However, the corrosion rate of CS particularly in acid medium can be combated using inhibitors [3, 4]. Critical use of organic compounds containing hetero atoms such as N, S or O has been reviewed and found to function as better adsorption inhibitors owing to their free (donor) electron pair and polar nature of the molecules [5, 6].
The ability of the hydrazide derivatives [7,8,9], and thiosemicarbazide derivatives [10,11,12,13], to inhibit corrosion of CS in acid medium is well established. Thus, as a part of the research work with inhibitors for the corrosion control of steel we report herein the results of the synthesis of a hydrazide derivative, namely 4-hydroxyl-N′-[(3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl) methylidene] benzohydrazide](HMBH) and its inhibition action on CS in 0.5 M H2SO4 medium with four levels of concentration of the inhibitor at three different temperatures (303 to 323 K) along with the images of SEM and AFM with and without the inhibitor.
Experimental Details
Material
The corrosion tests were conducted on the plain CS specimen having the composition given in Table 1.
Test Specimen Preparation
Cylindrical test coupons of CS material with external cross-sectional surface area of 1cm2 were prepared and then mounted with cold setting resin. The polishing was done using emery paper of different grades (200–1200) and finally disc polished by means of levigated alumina. The freshly polished specimen was then washed with distilled water and dried.
Preparation of Medium
Stock solution of higher concentration of approximately 1M solution of H2SO4 was prepared from AR H2SO4 and standardized by volumetric method. From this, the required concentrations of 0.5 M H2SO4 were prepared by appropriate dilution as and when required.
Synthesis of HMBH
The reactants 3-hydroxy-4-methoxy benzaldehyde and 4-hydroxy benzo hydrazide were taken in 1:1 ratio in a round-bottom flask to which the required amount of ethanol and two drops of glacial acetic acid were added and refluxed for 3–4 h. Filtered residue was collected and dried. The synthesis of HMBH is shown in Fig. 1.
Electrochemical Techniques
Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization (PDP) studies were performed using an electrochemical workstation (CH Instrument USA Model 604D series with beta software). The measurements were taken using a saturated calomel electrode as the reference electrode and platinum as the counter electrode. The CS specimen was used as the working electrode. The finely polished specimen of CS was exposed to 0.5 M sulfuric acid with 0, 0.1, 0.25, 0.5 and 1.0mM HMBH at three different temperatures (303, 313 and 323 K) and allowed to establish a steady-state open-circuit potential (OCP). The potentiodynamic polarization studies were then carried out in the potential range of −250 mV cathodically to +250 mV anodically at a scan rate of 0.1 mV/s. Tafel plots were recorded. The corrosion rates were calculated from electrochemical data. Similarly, by applying a small amplitude of AC signal of 10 mV to the system in the frequency range (10 kHz to 0.01 Hz) with respect to OCP, Nyquist plots were generated.
Surface Morphology Study
The corroded surface morphology of the CS specimen dipped in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution for 2 h in both the absence and presence of HMBH was compared by recording with a SEM (JEOL JSM-6380 L) and AFM (1B342 Innova model) images.
Results and Discussion
HMBH Characterization
The characterization of HMBH was conducted using Shimadzu FTIR 8400S spectrophotometer. Figure 2 shows the IR spectrum of the HMBH molecule.
Characterization of HMBH: 3451 cm−1 (OH), 3221 cm-1(NH), 3093cm-1 and 3052 cm-1 (Ar.CH), 2940 cm-1 and 2964 cm-1 (CH3), 1606cm-1 (C=O), 1585cm-1 (C=N).
Potentiodynamic Polarization (PDP) Measurements
The PDP curves for the corrosion of CS in 0.5 M H2SO4 at 303 K in the absence and presence of HMBH are shown in Fig. 3. Plots obtained at other temperatures were similar. The full data are tabulated in Table 2.
From the potentiodynamic polarization plots, important electrochemical parameters like corrosion current density (icorr), corrosion potential (Ecorr), cathodic and anodic Tafel slopes, (βa and βc) can be obtained, and hence, corrosion rate was calculated using the following equation:
icorr = corrosion current density in A cm-2, 3270 = a constant that defines the conversion unit, ρ = density of the corroding material (7.725 g cm-3), Z = number of electrons transferred per metal atom (Z=2 for Fe → Fe2+), M = atomic mass of the metal (55.85) [14].
Inhibition efficiency (% IE) of the inhibitor was calculated using the equation
where icorr represents the corrosion current density in uninhibited solution and icorr (inh) is in the inhibited condition [15].
The fraction of surface covered (θ) is given by
It is evident that as the concentration of HMBH increases, there is a reduction in icorr and hence decrease in corrosion rate. Table 2 shows the % IE increases with the increase in concentration of added HMBH. This may be due to the adsorbed inhibitor covering the active metal surface by film formation. The maximum inhibition efficiency obtained is about 71 % in 0.5 M H2SO4 at 303 K. From the Tafel plots it is observed that there is no remarkable variation in the slope values (both anodic and cathodic) after the addition of inhibitor. This suggests that added inhibitor HMBH brings down the corrosion rate without altering the mechanism of corrosion. It simply blocks the anodic and cathodic regions in the form of the physical barrier and thus controls reactions of both dissolutions of metal and hydrogen liberation [16].
Shift in the corrosion potential (Ecorr) value in the presence of HMBH is very little. If the shift in the corrosion potential exceeds ±85mV with respect to corrosion potential of the uninhibited solution, then the inhibitor may be considered as either anodic or cathodic type [17]. In the present case, the shift in the Ecorr values is well within the limiting range and hence HMBH can be considered as mixed-type inhibitor.
Impedance Spectroscopic Studies
In electrochemical impedance spectroscopy studies, the real (resistance) and imaginary (capacitance) components were recorded. Impedance data were evaluated using Nyquist plots. Nyquist plots obtained for the CS specimen in 0.5 M H2SO4 at 303 K containing different concentrations of HMBH are shown in Fig. 4. The Nyquist plots are characterized by a capacitive loop in the high-frequency (HF) region which could be assigned to the charge transfer of the corrosion process. Further, the diameter of the capacitive loop increased with increase in the concentration of HMBH. From Fig. 4 it is observed that there is depression in the semicircles. This could be due to the surface roughness, inhomogeneity of the solid surface and adsorption of the inhibitor on the metal surface [18, 19].
Figure 5 which represents a simple Randle’s circuit is the suitable equivalent circuit used to simulate the impedance data in the presence of HMBH. The equivalent circuit consists of the following: the solution resistance (Rs), charge transfer resistance (Rct) and time constant phase element (Q). The Q is introduced in the circuit instead of a pure double-layer capacitance to account for the depressed capacitive nature of the Nyquist plots. The small variation in the capacitance from its real value was calculated using the relationship
where Wmax = angular frequency, Q = proportionality coefficient, I = imaginary number, and n is the exponent linked to the phase shift. The value of phase shift (n) is between 0 and 1. This in turn is related to the deviation of CPE from the ideal capacitive behavior. The correction in the capacitance is given by the following equation [20]
where Cdl is the double-layer capacitance, Rct is the charge transfer resistance, and fmax is the frequency at which the imaginary part of the impedance is maximum. The charge transfer resistance (Rct) is inversely proportional to corrosion current density (icorr) which is used to calculate the inhibition efficiency using the following relation.
where Rct and Rct(inh) are the charge transfer resistance for the blank and in the presence of HMBH. Results obtained are tabulated in Table 3.
It is evident from Table 3 that with the increase in HMBH concentration, the Rct values increased due to resistance to corrosion offered by the added inhibitor. Lowering of Cdl values as amounts of HMBH increased may be attributed to lowering of dielectric constant and also increased in double-layer thickness at metal/solution interface [21]. The inhibition efficiency obtained from PDP and EIS techniques is in good agreement.
Evaluation of Kinetic Parameters
It can be seen from Table 2 that % IE decreases with increase in temperature in 0.5 M H2SO4. This may be due to decrease in the protective nature of the inhibitive film formed on the metal surface and desorption of the HMBH molecules at higher temperature [22]. The variation of % IE with varying concentrations of HMBH at different temperatures is depicted in Fig. 6.
Arrhenius equation given below was used for calculation of the activation energy (Ea) for corrosion of CS in 0.5 M H2SO4 medium [23]
where R is the universal gas constant, and B is the Arrhenius pre-exponential constant.
Figure 7a shows the plot of ln (CR) against 1/T. Slope (−Ea/R) is used to calculate the activation energy for the corrosion process in both the absence and presence of inhibitor and is tabulated in Table 4. The presence of the inhibitor increases the energy barrier for the corrosion reaction. Hence, the Ea values are greater in the presence of HMBH than without HMBH [24]. The change in enthalpy (∆H#) and change in entropy (∆S#) of activation for the metal dissolution process both with and without inhibitor were determined using the transition state equation given below and are recorded in Table 4. Plot of ln (CR/T) v/s 1/T (Fig. 7b) gives a straight line with slope(−∆H#/R) and intercept ln(R/Nh) +(ΔS#/R).
The negative values of ΔS≠ mean that there is less randomness in the activated complex due to association. The positive sign of the ΔH≠ showed the endothermic nature of steel dissolution process [25].
Adsorption Considerations
By appropriately fitting the experimental results of the present study to different adsorption isotherm models, the fraction of surface covered (θ) for various concentrations of the HMBH was determined. The best correlation was with Freundlich’s adsorption isotherm which can be represented by the equation.
where C is the HMBH concentration and K is adsorption equilibrium constant whose value is obtained from the plot of log θ vs log C (Fig. 8a).
The standard free energy of adsorption of the inhibitor ΔGoads is related to adsorption/desorption constant K as shown in the equation below.
where K is the equilibrium constant, T is absolute temperature, R is the universal gas constant, and 55.5 is the concentration of water in solution in mol/dm3 [26]. Adsorption parameters for HMBH on CS surface in 0.5 M H2SO4 are reported in Table 5.
Figure 8b shows the plot of ΔGoads vs. T which gives a straight line. The standard enthalpy of adsorption (ΔHoads) and the standard entropy of adsorption (ΔSoads) values were calculated from the slope and intercept of the straight line obtained from the above plot using the equation [27].
The higher values of Kads suggest the formation of stronger and more stable adsorbed layer on the metal surface, resulting in the higher inhibition efficiency. The reactive centers present in the inhibitor molecules get attached on both anodic and cathodic sites present on the metal replacing the water molecule which was initially adsorbed on the metal surface. The ∆Goads values are found to be in the range of −20 kJ mol-1. The mode of adsorption of inhibitor on CS physical adsorption is an indication. The negative values of ∆Hoads indicate that adsorption is taking place through physical adsorption [28]. The negative values of ∆Soads in the acid medium indicate the decrease in the dis-orderness because of formation of more ordered adsorbed species [29].
Corrosion Inhibition Mechanism
The inhibition effect of HMBH on the corrosion of CS in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution may be attributed to the adsorption of the inhibitor at the metal/solution interface. The free electron pairs of oxygen and nitrogen atoms, π-electrons on the aromatic rings, imine group, electron-donating group and molecular size of HMBH help its adsorption and form coordinate bonds with the metal. The adsorbed HMBH may form a surface film, which acts as a physical barrier to restrict diffusion of metal ions to or from the metal surface and hence slows down the corrosion process. The type of adsorption between HMBH and metal surface is mixed. The adsorption of the inhibitor majorly depends on the nature of the metal, structure of inhibitors, temperature, type of aggressive medium and the morphology of the CS surface [30, 31]. The corrosion inhibition mechanism can be described as follows. HMBH gets protonated in acid medium at the nitrogen atom of the hydrazide group, which results in formation of positively charged inhibitor species, which will electrostatically interact with the negative charge formed at metal/solution interface, thereby facilitating physisorption. Chemical adsorption of HMBH arises from the interactions between the free electron pairs of heteroatoms and π-electrons of multiple bonds in addition to vacant d-orbitals of iron [32]. Figure 9 depicts the mechanism of corrosion inhibition.
Surface Morphological Study
Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM)
The 3-dimensional AFM images of polished CS surfaces, specimen immersed in 0.5 M H2SO4 in the absence and presence of HMBH, are shown in Fig. 10a, b and c, respectively. The images obtained in the presence of HMBH exhibited a smoother surface. Average surface roughness (Ra) and roughness (Rq) values obtained for 0.5 M H2SO4 in the absence and presence of inhibitor are given in Table 6. The decrease in the Ra and Rq values clearly indicates the adsorption of inhibitor molecule on the metal surface [33].
Scanning Electron Microscopy
SEM images of the polished metal, metal surface after immersion in 0.5 M H2SO4 acid for 3 hours and metal surface immersed in 0.5 M H2SO4 acid containing 1mM HMBH for the same time are shown in Fig. 11a, b and c, respectively.
Figure 11b shows the surface is rough due to the presence of cracks and pits. In Fig. 11c the surface is relatively smooth, due to the adsorption of HMBH onto the surface of the metal.

Centered on the results of the study, the subsequent conclusions are drawn:
-
(E)-N′-(3-hydroxy-4-methoxy-benzylidene)-4-hydroxybenzohydrazide can be a potential inhibitor for the corrosion control of CS in 0.5 M H2SO4.
