Elaboration, optimization, and characterization of new harmaline-based derivatives as corrosion inhibitors for E24 carbon steel in 1M HCl medium: an integrated experimental, surface, and computational approaches (DFT, MD, RDG, ELF)
Key Points
Corrosion inhibition is effectively enhanced by new harmaline derivatives, ensuring better protection for carbon steel.
A 40% reduction in corrosion rate was observed, highlighting the significant improvement from previous inhibitors.
Integrated experimental and computational approaches, including density functional theory and molecular dynamics, provide thorough characterization.
The findings suggest potential applications for these derivatives in industrial settings, emphasizing the need for real-world testing.
