Quinoline quaternary ammonium salt – KSCN synergy for non-magnetic steel corrosion inhibition in 4 % HCl/HF environments: Film densification and molecular insights
Puntos clave
Corrosion inhibition improved when quinoline quaternary ammonium salt and KSCN are combined, leading to enhanced protective effects.
Key evidence shows a significant reduction in corrosion rates in 4% HCl/HF environments with a dual-action approach.
Experimental observations reveal film densification occurring on steel surfaces, suggesting increased protection against corrosive agents.
Findings indicate the need for further exploration of molecular insights to understand the underlying mechanisms at work.
