Host-Guest Systems in the Development of Anticorrosive Polymeric Films
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 February 2011
Abstract
Interactive dispersion-type LDPE/EVA films with anticorrosive properties were produced using host-guest systems of thermally stable volatile corrosion inhibitors (VCI) dicyclohexylammonium p-nitrobenzoate and phosphate, adsorbed on NaY zeolites and diatomaceous earths. Carbon steel specimens were either directly exposed to the inhibiting systems studied or wrapped with the additivated films. Accelerated corrosion tests were carried out where the inhibitive properties of the systems being studied were determined by mass loss of the test coupons. The influence of the mineral support on the volatility of the corrosion inhibitors was evaluated by TG/DTG techniques. The obtained results may be regarded as a confirmation of the hypothesis that VCI volatility may be controlled by their deposition on determined supports. Also, both VCIs had their efficiency enhanced by zeolites, and the phosphate greatly benefited from the use of diatomaceous earth.
