Abstract
An alternative technique is presented for the corrosion protection of the A36 structural steel (A36SS) in acid medium (H2SO4) using silica obtained from canary seed husk (CSH). The silica was obtained in a solid amorphous state with a particle size of 10–22 nm. The anticorrosive properties of nanosilica (NS) were studied using potentiodynamic polarization (PDP), linear polarization resistance (LPR), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Before carrying out the corrosion tests, the A36SS was subjected to a treatment with NaOH solution without and with the presence of NS. The A36SS treated with NS presented the lowest current density values and the noblest corrosion potential values, indicating that the corrosion rate decreased. The surface morphological study of the tested systems using SEM/EDS showed that the NS‐treated A36SS had a more efficient physical barrier against corrosive species.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
