Retracted Article: Interfacial adsorption study of Nitrogen based inhibitors in silane nanocontainers as anticorrosive and self-healing material for steel in strong acid solution.

Abstract

Nitrogen based organic compound is very useful in coordination chemistry due to their interesting networking ability. This paper describes the preparation and characterization of different nitrogen based corrosion inhibitors loaded mesoporous silica nanocomposites and their effect in 20% H2SO4 solution for the controlling of long-term oxidation rate on steel surface. Considering the significance of the loading capacity of mesoporous silica (SiO2) and the outstanding hindrance nature of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheets, mesoporous silane nanocontainers (GOS) are developed and encapsulated with benzimidazole (BIM), Benzotriazole (BTR), Diphenylamine (DPA) and Polyacrylamide (PCA). Benzimidazole encapsulated mesoporous silane (GSBIM) exhibits an inhibitory efficacy of 96.30% from EIS and 99.53% from PDP measurements. According to XPS data the GSBIM-Fe2+ combination is formed by functionalized silane on surface of the metal. The d-π* orbitals interaction between the steel surface and benzimidazole molecules in GSBIM is considered as the reason for the protected layer generation on the steel surface. The mechanism of the inhibition are explained based on donor-acceptor interaction such as physisorption, chemisorption and retrodonation. This simple solution-based approach could pave new directions for future research in the field of industrial corrosion prevention and coating.
