Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) of 1-hydroxybenzotriazole adsorbed on a copper electrode surface

“…However, at sufficiently positive potentials, especially in alkaline medium, some part of the molecules may decompose and form a surface film consisting of segments of polymeric [Cu(I)BTA] n complexes mixed with Cu(I)BTAOH complexes. This non-uniform structure of the surface film may be responsible for the lower efficiency of BTAOH as corrosion inhibitor as compared with BTAH [10,11].…”

“…They allowed the adsorption geometry of BTAH to be determined and gave evidence of dissociation of chemisorbed molecules and formation of a [Cu-BTA] n polymeric network at sufficiently positive electrode potentials. As reported in numerous papers [1,2,[10][11][12][13][14][15] some substituents on the benzene and triazole rings of benzotriazole have a marked effect on corrosion inhibition. It was shown that methyl [15] or methoxymethyl [14] substitution on the triazole ring prevented the formation of a protective film and decreased corrosion inhibition relative to unsubstituted BTAH.…”

Corrosion Inhibitory Effects of Some Schiff's Bases on Mild Steel in Acid Media

“…Generally the organic compounds containing hetero atoms like O, N, S and in some cases Se and P are found to have function as very effective corrosion inhibitors [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] . The efficiency of these compounds depends upon electron density present around the hetero atoms 12 .…”

Copper and Copper Alloys

“…In particular, the mechanisms of pitting corrosion [363][364][365][366][367][368][369][370][371][372], stress corrosion cracking [373][374][375][376][377][378][379][380][381][382][383][384], microbiologically influenced corrosion [385][386][387][388][389][390][391][392][393][394][395], and hightemperature oxidation [396][397][398][399][400] continue to deserve a lot of concern.…”
