Study of the inhibitory properties of 2-((benzylthio)methyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole with respect to the corrosion of aluminum in a nitric acid medium
Abstract
Due to its massive use, the behavior of aluminum in a 1 M nitric acid solution was studied in this work; this study which is mainly based on the inhibitory properties of 2-((benzylthio)methyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (2-BTM1HBI) was carried out using the mass loss technique of temperature varying from 298 to 338 K and concentration of 10-3 mM at 5 mM. The inhibitory efficiency of 2-BTM1HBI increases with the increase of the concentration and this up to 96.09% but decreases with the increase of the temperature. The study of isotherms shows that the adsorption of the molecule studied on the surface of aluminum obeys the modified Langmuir isotherm (villamil model). The thermodynamic adsorption quantities were determined and discussed. They show that the adsorption of 2-BTM1HBI is spontaneous and exothermic with an increase in disorder. Adsorption is done in two modes: physisorption and chemsorption with a predominance of physisorption. The thermodynamic quantities of activation have shown that the dissolution process is endothermic with an increase in disorder.
