“…Therefore, hybrid corrosion inhibitors are put forward to overcome the problem caused by a single inorganic inhibitor. Extensive research has verified that a hybrid corrosion inhibitor could combine the advantages of organic and inorganic inhibitors, which not only provides a protective layer to reduce the active sites of self-corrosion but also stabilizes and enhances the film by the adsorption of organic inhibitors. , Studies have shown that cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and poly(ethylene glycol) di- acid could greatly improve the deposition of metallic zinc on the Al interface to restrain self-corrosion and amend the electrochemical properties of a pure aluminum anode (99.999 and 99.9995%). , It is found that carboxymethyl cellulose and organic acids adsorbed on Zn and Al surfaces form RCOO-Al and RCOO-Zn composite protective films to improve the electrochemical performance of the AA5052 alloy and porous Al foam (95.17%) anode. , However, the reported studies mainly concentrated on the electrochemical characterization of Al anodes, and hence, there is limited understanding on the electrode/electrolyte interface.…”

The self-corrosion of aluminum anodes is one of the key issues that hinder the development and application of low-cost and high-energy-density Al–air batteries (AABs). Herein, a hybrid corrosion inhibitor combining ZnO and acrylamide (AM) was developed to construct a dense protective interface on the Al anode to suppress the self-corrosion and enhance the electrochemical performance of AABs. Also, the results show that the hydrogen evolution rate with the optimal combination of hybrid inhibitors is 0.0848 mL cm–2 min–1, corresponding to the inhibition efficiency of 78.03%. The integrated AABs with hybrid inhibitors show remarkable capacities of 1240.6 mA h g–1 (25 mA cm–2) and 2444.1 mA h g–1 (100 mA cm–2) and a high power density of 63.7 mW cm–2. This shows that ZnO dissolves into the electrolyte and forms a loose and porous film on the Al surface. When AM is introduced into the ZnO-containing electrolyte, the adsorption of the amide group of AM on the surface of aluminum and ZnO occurs, which not only controls the growth morphology of ZnO but also enables ZnO to easily aggregate into a layer that is in close contact with the anode, efficiently suppressing self-corrosion. This work opens up the prospect of a corrosion inhibition mechanism for ZnO and AM in alkaline solutions and for developing effective organic/inorganic hybrid inhibitors.

“…However, when the molecular structural concentration reached above 4 mM/L, the improvement of inhibition efficiency was very minimal. This result potentially occurred because the inhibitor molecules adsorbed on the steel surface that formed a protective film reached a saturation threshold at 4 mM L -1 , thus greatly reducing the exposure of active sites; therefore, no more sites were available for the more polar groups carried by the corrosion inhibitor molecules to form an adsorbed film [10]. When same molecular structural concentration reached 4 mM L -1 , the inhibition efficiency of Cys-Cys, Cys and Glu was 69.0%, 64.6% and 53.9%, respectively.…”

Metal corrosion can cause massive economic losses and many safety hazards; thus, metal corrosion inhibition has been a major research direction worldwide. Among the many methods to stop metal corrosion, the addition of corrosion inhibitors is a common method. The use of amino acids as metal corrosion inhibitors not only has the advantage of being economical and efficient but also meets the long-term concept of being environmentally friendly. In this study, the effect on the corrosion behavior of a mild steel (X100 pipeline steel) in 1 M HCl containing the same concentration of the amino groups of cystine (Cys-Cys), cysteine (Cys) and glutamate (Glu) was investigated via density functional theory (DFT) and various characterization methods. These methods include the weightlessness method, electrochemical tests, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the contact angle test. The results show that the inhibition efficiency increased with increasing inhibitor concentration; Cys-Cys showed the best inhibition and Glu showed the poorest inhibition for X100 pipeline steel at the same amino group concentration. Furthermore, the results obtained from various characterization methods were generally consistent.

BACKGROUND The parasitic H2 evolution reaction (HER) is the main problem preventing the development of the commercial Al‐air battery (AAB) in alkaline solution. The purpose of this study is to investigate a hybrid additive for alkaline AAB. The inhibition effect of the additives for HER is studied by hydrogen evolution test, electrochemical measurements, and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The stability of the battery and the anode utilization rate in alkaline solution are also investigated. RESULTS Results showed that the maximum inhibition efficiency was 86.52% for 0.08 g L−1 CaO + 0.5 mmol L−1 H2QS, and that the anode utilization rate increased to 90.7%. A spectrum analysis, including infrared, ultraviolet, and fluorescence, was conducted to analyze the corrosion inhibition mechanism. The chelation of the quinoline ring with Al3+ ions and the electrostatic interaction of sulfonic groups with Ca2+ ions produce a strong synergistic effect. CONCLUSION The hybrid H2QS/CaO additive has synergistic effects to help form a stable composite film that significantly retards the hydrogen evolution reaction of the Al alloy anode for the alkaline AAB. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry (SCI).
