    Inhibition of corrosion of mild steel in acid media by N'-benzylidene-3- (quinolin-4-ylthio)propanohydrazide
    (2008) Ramesh Saliyan, V.; Vasudeva Adhikari, A.V.
    In the present investigation a new corrosion inhibitor, N'-(3,4-dihydroxybenzylidene)-3-{[8-(trifluoromethyl)quinolin-4-yl]thio} propanohydrazide(DHBTPH) was synthesized, characterized and tested as a corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in HCl (1 M, 2 M) and H2SO 4 (0.5 M, 1 M) solutions using weight-loss method, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization methods. The corrosion inhibition efficiency measured by all the above three techniques were in good agreement with each other. The results showed that DHBTPH is a very good inhibitor for mild steel in acidic media. The inhibition efficiency in different acid media was found to be in the decreasing order 0.5 M H 2SO4 > 1 M HCl > 1M H2SO4 > 2 M HCL The inhibition efficiency increases with increasing inhibitor concentration and with increasing temperature. It acts as an anodic inhibitor. Thermodynamic and activation parameters are discussed. Adsorption of DHBTPH was found to follow the Langmuir's adsorption isotherm. Chemisorption mechanism is proposed. The mild steel samples were also analysed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). © Indian Academy of Sciences.

    N?-[4-(diethylamino)benzylidine]-3-{[8-(trifluoromethyl) quinolin-4-yl]thio}propano hydrazide) as an effective inhibitor of mild steel corrosion in acid media
    (2009) Ramesh, S.V.; Vasudeva Adhikari, A.V.
    N?-[4-(diethylamino)benzylidine]-3-{[8-(trifluoromethyl)quinolin-4-yl]thio}propano hydrazide (DEQTPH) was newly synthesized, characterized and tested as a corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in HCl (1 M, 2 M) and H2SO4 (0.5 M, 1 M) solutions using weight loss method, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization method. The corrosion inhibition efficiencies measured by all the above three techniques were in good agreement with each other. The mild steel samples were also analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that DEQTPH is an excellent inhibitor for mild steel in acid media. The inhibition efficiency in different acid media was found to be in the order, 0.5 M H2SO4 > 1.0 M HCl > 2.0 M HCl > 1.0 M H2SO4. The inhibition was assumed to occur via adsorption of the inhibitor molecule on the metal surface. It acts as an anodic inhibitor. In the 30-60 °C temperature range, the DEQTPH adsorption follows Langmuir isotherm model. The protection efficiency increased with increasing inhibitor concentration in the range 0.2 × 10-4 to 10.5 × 10-4 M and slightly increased with increasing temperature. Thermodynamic characteristics were discussed. Chemisorption mechanism is proposed. © 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Corrosion inhibition of 6061 Al-15 vol. pct. SiC(p) composite and its base alloy in a mixture of sulphuric acid and hydrochloric acid by 4-(N,N-dimethyl amino) benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone
    (2011) Geetha, G.M.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.
    The corrosion inhibition characteristics of 4-(N,N-dimethylamino) benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (DMABT) on the corrosion behavior of 6061 Al-15 vol. pct. SiC(p) composite and its base alloy were studied at different temperatures in acid mixture medium containing varying concentrations of hydrochloric acid and sulphuric acid using Tafel extrapolation technique and ac impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The effect of inhibitor concentration, temperature and concentration of the acid mixture media on the inhibitor action was investigated. It was found that inhibition efficiencies increase with the increase in inhibitor concentration, but decrease with the increase in temperature and with the increase in concentration of the acid media. Thermodynamic parameters for dissolution process were determined. The adsorption of DMABT on both the composite and base alloy was found to be through physisorption obeying Freundlich adsorption isotherm. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    3,4-Dimethoxybenzaldehydethiosemicarbazone as corrosion inhibitor for aged 18 Ni 250 grade maraging steel in 0.5 M sulfuric acid
    (2011) Poornima, T.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.
    The corrosion inhibition of the aged 18 Ni 250 grade maraging steel in 0.5 M sulfuric acid by 3,4-dimethoxybenzaldehydethiosemicarbazone(DMBTSC) has been investigated by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS) techniques. The inhibition efficiency increased with the increase in inhibitor concentration and decreased with the increase in temperature. Polarization curves indicated mixed type inhibition behavior affecting both cathodic and anodic corrosion currents. The thermodynamic parameters of corrosion and adsorption processes were evaluated. The adsorption of DMBTSC on the aged maraging steel surface was found to obey the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model, and the calculated Gibb's free energy values confirm the spontaneous adsorption. The results obtained by the two techniques were in good agreement. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.

    Development of anti-corrosive multi-layered coatings of zinc-nickel alloy
    (2011) Subbaiah, Y.; Kaje, V.; Hegde, A.C.
    Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to develop and optimize anti-corrosive multi-layered coatings of zinc-nickel alloy on carbon steel. Design/methodology/approach: A variety of composition-modulated multi-layer alloy (CMMA) coatings of zinc-nickel were developed on a carbon steel substrate by cyclic changes in cathode current during electrodeposition, coupled with variation of the thicknesses of the individual layers. The corrosion behavior of the coatings was studied in 5 percent NaCl solution by electrochemical methods. Cyclic cathode current densities (CCCDs) and the number of alloy layers were optimized for highest performance of the coatings against corrosion. The factors responsible for improved corrosion resistance were analyzed in terms of change in the intrinsic electrical properties of the capacitance value at the electrical double layer that was associated with micro/nanometric layering. The formation of the semi-conductive surface film, which was responsible for the improved corrosion resistance, was supported by a Mott-Schottky plot and the cyclic polarization study. The formation of multi-layered deposit and the mechanism of corrosion degradation of the coating were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy. Findings: CMMA coatings with an optimal configuration of (Zn-Ni)2.0/4.0/300 showed ~35 times better corrosion resistance compared to a monolithic (Zn-Ni)3.0 alloy coating of the same thickness. The peak performance was attributed to the change in intrinsic electrical properties of the coating and this conclusion was supported by dielectric spectroscopy. Originality/value: The paper describes the optimization of CCCD and the number of deposited layers by development of electrolytic deposition of anti-corrosive multi-layered zinc-nickel coatings from a single plating technique. © Emerald Group Publishing Limited.

    Finite element analysis of thermal residual stresses in SS-309Mo and Inconel-625 multilayer weld deposition on low carbon steel
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2019) Amudha, A.; Nagaraja, H.S.; Shashikala, H.D.
    ANSYS Finite Element Analysis is adopted for simulation of SS-309Mo and Inconel-625 deposition in single and double layers, on IS-2062 Grade-B low carbon steel base metal. The Von-Mises residual stress distribution is obtained for twelve different combinations of weld deposition techniques and weld materials. Aim is to obtain a combination with minimum residual stress, using a technique of alternate skip weld deposition and base metal preheating. Also, the effect of change in the thickness of the base metal on coating residual stress is studied. The best model has 18 MPa surface residual stress. The very low values of residual stress obtained in the top layer of the multilayer deposition is helpful in preventing corrosion problems like stress corrosion cracking and corrosion fatigue, resulting in lower equipment downtime and losses to industry. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd

    Effect of metalloid element on the microstructural and mechanical properties of AlCoCrCuFeNi high-entropy alloys
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2024) Chandrakar, R.; Chandraker, S.; Kumar, A.; Jaiswal, A.
    The impact of the metalloid element silicon (Si) addition on the microstructural and mechanical properties of the AlCoCuCrFeNiSix high-entropy alloy system is examined in this paper. The alloys were synthesized using a vacuum arc melting route. X-ray diffraction was used to analyse the current high-entropy alloys’ phase formation to comprehend the alloying process’s behaviour. It is evident from the peak pattern of the X-ray diffraction that the inclusion of Si promotes the growth of body-centred cubic structures. The microhardness and wear resistance were increased by increasing the Si content from 0 to 0.9. Si presence enhances the hardness of the alloys and strengthens the grain boundary. Improved hardness and wear resistance results from the enhanced body-centred cubic-phase formation, which poses a barrier to the dislocation movement and prevents further deformation. Furthermore, the inclusion of Si improved corrosion resistance in potentiodynamic polarization measurements. Excellent compressive strength is possessed by all of the high-entropy alloys with Si addition. © 2024 The Author(s). Published by Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.

    Investigation of phase transformation and mechanical properties of silicon addition on AlCrFeMnNi high entropy alloys
    (Institute of Physics, 2024) Chandrakar, R.; Chandraker, S.; Kumar, A.; Jaiswal, A.
    This paper examines the impact of silicon in the AlCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloy system, focusing on both its microstructural and mechanical properties. Alloys with varying silicon content (x = 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9 atomic ratio) were synthesized using vacuum arc melting. The phase formation of these high-entropy alloys was analyzed using x-ray diffraction to comprehend the alloying process behaviour. The findings revealed that the solidification of the AlCrFeMnNi alloy occurred in dendritically, with dendrite cores containing Cr, Fe, and Ni, while interdendritic regions were enriched in Al and Ni after adding Silicon. Increasing the silicon content from 0 to 0.9 led to significant improvements in microhardness and wear resistance. This improvement is attributed to the reinforcement of grain boundaries provided by silicon. The formation of an Al and Ni rich B2 phase is crucial in resisting dislocation motion and preventing further deformation. Additionally, the addition of silicon led to improved corrosion resistance, as demonstrated by potentiodynamic polarization measurements. However, a trade-off was observed between compressive strength and ductility: compressive strength increased with higher silicon concentrations, but at the expense of ductility. © 2024 The Author(s).
