•ACDs exhibited good efficiency in acidic solution.•Simulations showed excellent correlation with experimental data.•EFM showed potential mitigation of steel by ACDs at 600 mg/L.•SEM and AFM confirmed inhibitor/metal complex formation.
Two new acridinedione namely 3,3,6,6-Tetramethyl-9,10-diphenyl-3,4,6,7,9,10-hexahydro-1,8-(2H,5H)-acridinedione (ACD-1), and 9-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3,3,6,6-tetramethyl-10-phenyl-3,4,6,7,9,10-hexahydroacridine-1,8(2H,5H)-dione (ACD-2) were synthesized and tested as prominent inhibitors for N80 steel corrosion inhibition in 15% hydrochloric acid (HCl). The weight loss result showed maximum efficiency of 97.3% (ACD-2) and Langmuir isotherm model best explained the adsorption of ACDs. EIS study reveals Rct value increased to a maximum of 816.4 Ωcm2 with the inhibition efficiency of 95.6% at 600 mg/L (ACD-2). The results of PDP proposed that ACDs are mixed but cathodic dominance inhibitors. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) tests supports the adsorption of ACDs molecules onto the N80 steel surface. Intermolecular interactions and dynamics were studied using density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD). |
