    2-(4-(Diethylamino)-2-hydroxybenzyledene) Hydrazinecarboamide as Corrosion Inhibitor on AA2024-T3 Aluminium Alloy in 0.5 M Hydrochloric Acid Solution
    (Pleiades Publishing compmg@maik.ru, 2018) Prakashaiah, B.G.; Nityananda Shetty, A.; Amitharani, B.E.
    A new compound 2-(4-(diethylamino)-2-hydroxybenzyledene) hydrazinecarboamide (DHBHC) was prepared by the condensation of thiosemicarbazide and diethylaminosalicyaldehyde in ethanol–water mixture and its purity was confirmed with IR, H1 and C13 NMR. Anticorrosion properties of this new compound were studied on the aluminium alloy AA2024-T3 in 0.5M HCl solution at 303 K by potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and weight loss method. The inhibition efficiency of DHBHC was found to increase with an increase of its concentration. The inhibition efficiency obtained in this study was 96 ± 3% in the presence of 10 × 10?5 M of DHBHC. The surface morphology of the alloy was investigated both in the presence and in the absence of the inhibitor by field emission scanning electron microscopy, 3D profilometry and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. © 2018, Allerton Press, Inc.

    Corrosion inhibition of 2024-T3 aluminum alloy in 3.5% NaCl by thiosemicarbazone derivatives
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2018) Prakashaiah, B.G.; Vinaya Kumara, D.; Pandith, A.; Nityananda Shetty, A.; Amitha Rani, B.E.
    Three thiosemicarzone derivatives, namely (E)-2-(2-hydroxybenzylidene) hydrazinecarbothioamide(MHC), (E)-2-(2,4-dihydroxybenzylidene)hydrazinecarbothioamide (DHC) and (E)-2-(2,3,4-trihydroxybenzylidene)hydrazinecarbothioamide (THC) were synthesized and their corrosion inhibition action on 2024-T3 aluminum alloy was studied in 3.5% NaCl solution. The surface morphology and surface composition of the corroded alloy were examined using FESEM, 3D profilometry, EDX spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The synthesized inhibitors were found to provide corrosion protection on AA2024-T3 by forming an adsorbed layer of the complex on the alloy surface. They exhibited inhibition efficiency in the order, MHC < DHC < THC. Quantum chemical calculations corroborated the experimental results. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd

    High energy reduced graphene oxide/vanadium Pentoxide/polyaniline hybrid supercapacitor for power backup and switched capacitor converters
    (Academic Press Inc. apjcs@harcourt.com, 2019) Viswanathan, A.; Prakashaiah, B.G.; Subburaj, V.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.
    The robust reduced graphene oxide (rGO)/vanadium pentoxide (V 2 O 5) /polyaniline (PANI) nanocomposite with a weight percentage of rGO – 5.88%: V 2 O 5 – 11.76%: PANI – 82.36%, was synthesized by facile insitu single step chemical method and fabricated into a supercapacitor device. The supercapacitor exhibited high energy density of 54.62 W h kg ?1 and an exceptionally high sustainability of its performance up to 13,000 rechargeable cycles at high charge/discharge rate. The high energy density was further confirmed when the supercapacitor containing the afore mentioned composite, acted as an excellent secondary power source to store and deliver energy for substantially long time when charged at an exceptionally high current using a commercial 9 V battery. Further, its energy storage and delivery capabilities were established by using it in a real time switched capacitor converter circuit and the obtained performance for potential step up and step-down purposes were gratifying. The obtained electrochemical parameters included a maximum specific capacitance of 273F g ?1 specific capacity of 327.6C g ?1 , energy density of 54.62 W h kg ?1 and a power density of 1636.5 W kg ?1 at a current density of 1 A g ?1 . © 2019 Elsevier Inc.

    Enhancement of Anticorrosion Properties of Epoxy Based Primer Coating by Bis[[3,4-Dihydroxyphenylmethylene] carbonothioicdihydrazide] on AA2024-T3 Alloy
    (Pleiades journals compmg@maik.ru, 2020) Prakashaiah, B.G.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.; Amitha Rani, B.E.A.
    Abstract: A corrosion inhibitor bis[[3,4-dihydroxyphenylmethylene]carbonothioicdihydrazide] (DCT) was synthesized and used to improve the corrosion resistance of an epoxy based primer coating on AA2024-T3 alloy in NaCl solution. The ability of DCT to inhibit the corrosion was evaluated by electrochemical studies. The compound exhibited an inhibition efficiency of 99%. The surfaces of the corroded specimens were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The anticorrosion nature of the substrate coated with a commercial epoxy-based primer doped with DCT was evaluated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and a salt spray test. The results established not only the ability of DCT to improve the anticorrosion property of the epoxy based primer coating on AA2024-T3 alloy but also a sustained corrosion protection (1000 h) of the alloy. © 2020, Allerton Press, Inc.
