Corrosion Protection of Copper Metal by Nanocoating in Nitrogen dioxide Environment

Rajesh Kumar Singh, Manjay Kumar Thakur, Shabana Latif

Abstract


Nitrogen dioxide is an acidic gas. It absorbs moisture to produce nitric acid. It creates corrosive medium for copper metal. It forms corrosion cell on the surface of copper and accelerate corrosion reactions. The corrosion cell formation is written as: Cu|Cu2+||H+|H2 thus corrosion reactions start and copper is oxidized into Cu2+surface and it is oxidized into Cu2+ whereas H+ ion is reduced into H2. Nitric acid environment copper exhibits galvanic, pitting, stress, crevice, blistering, embrittlement and intergranular corrosion. The corrosion reactions change physical, chemical and mechanical properties of corroded materials. Nanocoating compound tetrahydro-dibenzo[a,d][7]annulene-5,11-disemicarbazone and SiC electrospray compounds used to control the corrosion of copper in nitrogen dioxide medium. For corrosion mitigation of copper metal interface was coated with tetrahydrodibenzo[a,d][7]annulene-5,11 disemicarbazone and SiC. The coating compound tetrahydrodibenzo[
a,d][7]annulene-5,11-disemicarbazone was synthesized in laboratory. Nozzle spray techniques used for nanocoating and electrospraying. The corrosion rate of copper was determined by gravimetric loss method at different temperatures, concentrations and days in nitrogen dioxide medium. Potentiostatic polarization technique used for the determination of electrode potential, corrosion current and current density. Nanocoating and electrospraying compounds formed a composite barrier on the surface of base metal by chemical bonding. The nanocoating and electrospray compounds increased the surface coverage which indicated that thermal parameters values decreased like activation energy, heat of adsorption, free energy, enthalpy and entropy.Adsorption of nanocoating and electrospray phenomenon studied by the use of Langmuir, Frenudlich
and Temkin isotherm. Copper formed a complex compound to interact with tetrahydrodibenzo[a,d][7]annulene-5,11-disemicarbazone and SiC. Electrospraying SiC blocked porosities of nanocoating compound and checked osmosis process of nitrogen dioxide. Nanocoating and electrospray enhanced surface coverage area and percentage coating efficiency in nitrogen dioxide
environment.
