Corrosion Inhibition by Amino Trimethylene Phosphonic Acid (ATMP) -Zn2+ System for Carbon Steel in Ground Water
The inhibition efficiency (IE) of Amino Trimethylene phosphonic acid (ATMP) in controlling corrosion of carbon steel immersed in ground water in the absence and presence of Zn2+ has been evaluated by weight loss method. It is observed that the synergistic formulation consisting of 250 ppm ATMP and 1...

Resumo: | The inhibition efficiency (IE) of Amino Trimethylene phosphonic acid (ATMP) in controlling corrosion of carbon steel immersed in ground water in the absence and presence of Zn2+ has been evaluated by weight loss method. It is observed that the synergistic formulation consisting of 250 ppm ATMP and 10 ppm of Zn2+ has 98% IE. Polarization study reveals that ATMP-Zn2+ system functions as a cathodic inhibitor system. AC impedance study reveals that a protective film is formed on the metal surface. |
