The research demonstrated that three new Schiff bases synthesized as corrosion inhibitors were effective in inhibiting the corrosion of Mg-Zn-Y-Nd alloy. Analysis showed that the Schiff bases formed complexes with Mg2+ ions on the Mg surface, providing a protective film against corrosion. Theoretical calculations validated the experimental findings.
In this research, three new Schiff bases were synthesized by paeonol and amino acids and tested as corrosion inhibitors for Mg-Zn-Y-Nd alloy. Weight loss measurements and electrochemical measurements demonstrated that three Schiff bases showed high inhibition efficiency on Mg corrosion. The corrosion products on Mg surface were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The possible inhibition mechanism was proposed, in which the Schiff bases react with Mg2+ ions to form complexes on Mg surface in inhibitors-containing electrolytes. The theoretical calculation of quantum chemical demonstrated the experimental findings.
