Monte Carlo, molecular dynamic, and experimental studies of the removal of malachite green using g-C3N4/ZnO/Chitosan nanocomposite in the presence of a deep eutectic solvent

Deep-eutectic solvents (DES) have emerged as promising candidates for preparing nanocomposites. In this study, a DES-based graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4)/ZnO/Chitosan (Ch) nanocomposite was synthesized to remove malachite green (MG) dye from water. The DES was prepared by mixing and heating citric acid as a hydrogen bond acceptor and lactic acid as a hydrogen bond donor. This is the first report of the removal of MG using DES-based nanocomposites. Experiments on kinetics and isothermal adsorption were conducted to systematically explore the adsorption performances of nanocomposite toward dye. At 25 °C, the highest adsorption performance was obtained with alkaline media (>90 % removal). The greatest adsorption capacity (qm) was 59.52 mg g-1 at conditions (30 mg L-1 MG solution, pH 9, 3 mg nanocomposite per 10 mL of MG solution, 25 °C, 150 rpm, and 150 min) based on the calculation from the best-fitting isotherm model (Langmuir). The adsorption process was most appropriately kinetically described by the PSO model. The Monte Carlo (MC) and molecular dynamic (MC) results are correlated with experimental findings to validate the theoretical predictions and enhance the overall understanding of the adsorption process. Electronic structure calculations reveal the nature of interactions, including hydrogen bonding and electrostatic forces, between the nanocomposite and MG molecules.

Hybrid epoxy/Br inhibitor in corrosion protection of steel: experimental and theoretical investigations

The corrosion of carbon steel infrastructure in acidic environments poses significant economic and safety challenges. Traditional inhibitors such as chromates are being phased out due to toxicity concerns. Thus, there is a need to develop effective and sustainable green alternatives. In this work, we evaluated an epoxy-based inhibitor, bisphenol A tetrabromo dipropoxy dianiline tetraglycidyl ether (TGEDADPTBBA), for protecting carbon steel against corrosion in 1 M hydrochloric acid. An integrated experiment-computation approach was employed. Polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were used to assess the inhibition efficiency and mechanism of TGEDADPTBBA. Quantum chemical calculations and molecular dynamics simulations provided atomic-level insights into adsorption behavior. Scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy characterized the surface morphology. The results showed that TGEDADPTBBA acted as a highly effective mixed-type inhibitor, achieving over 95% inhibition efficiency at a 10-3 M concentration. It suppressed corrosion currents while increasing the charge transfer resistance. Theoretical studies revealed that TGEDADPTBBA adsorbed onto steel surfaces via both electrostatic and van der Waals interactions. This stable adsorption facilitated the formation of a protective barrier layer, as observed experimentally. Notably, our work demonstrated the synergistic potential of combining experimental corrosion testing with computational modeling to develop structure-property relationships for innovative inhibitor design. This integrated approach offers insight into inhibition mechanisms and presents TGEDADPTBBA as an attractive green corrosion inhibitor alternative for industrial applications.

Assessment of New Imidazol Derivatives and Investigation of Their Corrosion-Reducing Characteristics for Carbon Steel in HCl Acid Solution

This study assessed the corrosion inhibitory and adsorption properties of two imidazol derivatives, namely 5-((2,4,5-triphenyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl)quinolin-8-ol (TIMQ) and 5-((2-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl)quinolin-8-ol (CDIQ), on carbon steel (CS) in 1 M of HCl using electrochemical methods, including electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization measurements (PDP), UV–visible spectroscopy (UV–v), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and molecular modeling. The findings showed that TIMQ and CDIQ were potent inhibitors with inhibition efficiencies of 94.8% and 95.8%, respectively. The potentiodynamic polarization experiments showed that the inhibitors worked as mixed-type inhibitors, and the impedance investigations supported the improvement of a protective layer for the inhibitor on the metal surface. Each inhibitor was adsorbed onto the carbon steel surfaces, according to the Langmuir adsorption method. The steel was shielded from acidic ions by an adsorbed coating of the inhibitor molecules, according to SEM. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were used to inspect the results, and a good correlation was found between these results and those of the study. This information can be applied to determine the effectiveness of inhibitors in a HCl acid solution.

Cellulose based polyurethane with amino acid functionality: Design, synthesis, computational study and application in wastewater purification

Contamination in water is due to various environmental pollutants from natural and anthropogen activities. To remove toxic metals from contaminated water, we developed a novel adsorbent in foam form based on an olive industry waste material. The foam synthesis involved oxidation of cellulose extracted from the waste to dialdehyde, functionalization of the cellulose dialdehyde with an amino acid group, reacting the functionalized cellulose with hexamethylene diisocyanate and p-phenylene diisocyanate to produce the target polyurethanes Cell-F-HMDIC and Cell-F-PDIC, respectively. The optimum condition for lead(II) adsorption by Cell-F-HMDIC and Cell-F-PDIC were determined. The foams show the ability to quantitatively remove most of metal ions present in a real sample of sewage. The kinetic and thermodynamic studies confirmed a spontaneous metal ion binding to the foams with a second pseudo-order adsorption rate. The adsorption study revealed it obeys the Langmuir isotherm model. The experimental Qe values of both foams Cell-F-PDIC and Cell-F-HMDIC were 2.1929 and 2.0345 mg/g, respectively. Monte Carlo (MC) and Dynamic (MD) and simulations showed excellent affinity of both foams for lead ions with high adsorption negative energy value indicating vigorous interactions of Pb(II) with the adsorbent surface. The results indicate the usefulness of the developed foam in commercial applications. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPLICATION: Elimination of metal ions from contaminated environments is important for a number of reasons. They are toxic to humans via interaction with biomolecules, resulting in disruption of the metabolism and biological activities of many proteins. They are toxic to plants. Industrial effluents and/or wastewater discharged from production processes, contain a considerable amount of metal ions. In this work, the use of naturally produced materials, such as olive waste biomass, as adsorbents for environmental remediation has received great attention. This biomass represents unused resources and presents serious disposal problems. We demonstrated that such materials are capable of selectively adsorbing metal ions.

Anticorrosion performance assessment of silane-modified chitosan/epoxy primer coatings on mild steel in saline environment using computational simulation techniques

The anticorrosion performance of silane-modified chitosan/epoxy primer coatings was evaluated using quantum chemical computations (QCC) and molecular dynamics simulation (MDS) techniques. The objective was to appraise the molecular/atomistic level performance of silane-modified chitosan/epoxy primer coating system on mild steel in saline water to be able to design robust anticorrosion epoxy nanocomposite primer coating for marine application. The QCC showed that quantum parameters for (3-aminopropyl) trimethoxy silane-modified chitosan nanocluster (AMCN) are optimum and therefore correspond to high corrosion protective capability. The adsorption energies (E_ads) for AMCN/epoxy, tetraethoxysilane-modified chitosan/epoxy, chitosan-modified epoxy, and unmodified epoxy coatings were found to be - 3094.65, - 2,630.00, - 2,305.77, and - 1,189.33 kcal/mol, respectively. The high negative value of E_ads indicates the coating molecules interacted and adsorbed strongly on the mild steel surface. Hence, AMCN/epoxy coating is potentially most corrosion-resistant than the others. Further, it is established that shorter bond length corresponds to higher bond strength and therefore indicates chemical interaction. Thus, the radial distribution function showed the bond lengths between atoms of the AMCN and mild steel surfaces were shorter than those of other molecules. Overall, AMCN/epoxy coating molecules possess good anticorrosion properties and therefore would perform well if deployed for service in saline environments.

A Review on Interactions between Amino Acids and Surfactants as Well as Their Impact on Corrosion Inhibition

Amino acid-surfactant interactions are central to numerous studies because of their increased effectiveness in chemical, biological, household and industrial use. This review will focus on the impact and effect of the physicochemical properties, temperature, pH, and surfactant chain length of the amino acid for detailed exploration of amino acids and surfactants in aqueous medium. The impact of cosolvent on self-aggregation, critical micelle concentration (CMC), and binding affinity with other biomolecules, as well as amino acid-surfactant interactions, are the epicenters. The results show that increasing the temperature causes negative enthalpy for ionic surfactants and micellization, implying that micellization and amino acids are thermodynamically spontaneous and exothermic, accompanied by positive entropy. As these physicochemical studies are additive, the amino acid and ionic surfactant interactions provide clues on protein unfolding and denaturation under different media, which further changes with a change in physiological conditions like pH, cosolvent, chain length, and temperature. On varying the pH, the net charge of the amino acid also changes and, subsequently, the binding efficiency of the amino acids to the surfactants. The presence of cosolvent causes a lowering in the hydrophobic chain, which changes the surfactant's CMC. At a reduced CMC, the hydrophobic characteristic of amino acid-surfactant associations is amplified, leading to rapid denaturation of proteins that act as propulsion under the influence of extended chain surfactants. Amino acids are one of the most intriguing classes of chemicals that produce high inhibitory efficacy. Amino acids are also a component of proteins and therefore, found in a significant part of the human body, further making them a promising candidate as corrosion inhibitors. In this review article, authors have also focused on the collection and investigation for application of amino acid-surfactant interactions in corrosion inhibition. Various predictive studies/in silico studies are also reported by many research groups, such as density functional theory (DFT) calculations and molecular dynamics simulations to obtain tentative electronic, structural, and physiochemical characteristics like energies of the highest occupied molecular orbitals and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals, binding energy, Gibb's free energy, electronegativity, polarizability, and entropy. In silico studies are helpful for the mechanism predictions of the process occurring on metal surfaces.

Surface protection against corrosion of Ni turbine blades by electrophoretic deposition of MnO2, TiO2 and TiO2-C nanocoating

The turbine blades of turbochargers are corroded after being cleaned with water in the presence of gasses produced during the combustion of heavy fuel. For that, manganese oxide (MnO2), titanium dioxide (TiO2), and titanium oxide-graphene (TiO2-C) nanomaterials have been coated on the nickel alloy, which is the composition of turbine blades, by the electrophoretic deposition technique for protection against the corrosion process. The anticorrosion performance of nanomaterial coatings has been investigated using electrochemical methods such as open circuit potential, potentiodynamic, electrochemical impedance, and linear polarization resistance in a 1 M H2SO4 solution saturated with carbon dioxide. The corrosion rate of nanomaterial-coated Ni-alloy was lower than bare alloy, and potential corrosion increased from -0.486 V for uncoated Ni-alloy to -0.252 V versus saturated calomel electrode for nanomaterial coated Ni-alloy electrodes. Electrochemical measurements show that TiO2 coated Ni-alloy corrosion has good protective qualities, with an efficiency of 99.91% at 0.146 mA cm2 current density in sulfuric acid media. The findings of this study clearly show that TiO2 has a high potential to prevent nickel alloy turbine blades from corrosion in acidic media. Furthermore, the surface morphologies have revealed that TiO2 and MnO2 coatings might successfully block an acid assault due to the high adhesion of the protective layer on the nickel alloy surface. The use of X-ray diffraction (XRD) enhanced the various measures used to determine and study the composition of the alloy surface's protective coating.

Synthesis Characterization and Highly Protective Efficiency of Tetraglycidyloxy Pentanal Epoxy Prepolymer as a Potential Corrosion Inhibitor for Mild Steel in 1 M HCl Medium

Anticorrosive protection efficiency of novel tetrafunctional epoxy prepolymer, namely 2,3,4,5-tetraglycidyloxy pentanal (TGP), for mild steel in 1 M HCl medium was assessed through potentiodynamic polarization (PDP), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), contact angle (CA), adsorption isotherm model, temperature effect and thermodynamic parameters. The synthesized TGP was characterized and confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The inhibitory efficiencies found at lower concentration of the prepolymer TGP were85% (PDP) and 87.17% (EIS). PDP measurement illustrated that the TGP behaved as a mixed-type inhibitor in the realized solution. SEM and EDS analysis showeda significant decrease in the corrosion of the MS surface in the presence of the inhibitory prepolymer compared with the blank (1 M HCl). Langmuir adsorption isotherm is the most acceptable modelto describe the TGP epoxy prepolymer on the MS area.

Cellulose polymers with β-amino ester pendant group: design, synthesis, molecular docking and application in adsorption of toxic metals from wastewater

BACKGROUND

Cellulose polymers with multidentate chelating functionalities that have high efficiency for toxic metal ions present in water were designed, synthesized, and analyzed. The synthesis was carried out by reacting microcrystalline cellulose extracted from the solid waste of the olive industry with tert-Butyl acetoacetate (Cell-AA), produced cellulose with β-ketoester functionality was then reacted with aniline and the amino acid glycine to produce Cell-β-AN and Cell-β-GL, respectively.

RESULTS

The adsorption efficiency of the three polymers toward Pb(II) and various toxic metal ions present in sewage was evaluated as a function of adsorbent dose, time, temperature, pH value, and initial ion concentration to determine optimum adsorption conditions. The three polymers showed excellent efficiency toward about 20 metal ions present in a sewage sample collected from the sewer. The adsorption process follows the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model with a second-order of adsorption rate, the calculated qe values (2.675, 15.252, 20.856 mg/g) were close to the experimental qe values (2.133, 13.91, 18.786 mg/g) for the three polymers Cell-AA, Cell-β-AG and Cell-β-AN, respectively. Molecular Dynamic (MD) and Monte Carlo (MC) simulations were performed on the three polymers complexed with Pb(II).

CONCLUSION

The waste material of the olive industry was used as a precursor for making the target cellulose polymers with β-Amino Ester Pendant Group. The polymer was characterized by SEM, proton NMR, TGA, and FT-IR spectroscopy. The efficacy of adsorption was quantitative for metal ions present in a real sample of wastewater and the efficiency didn't drop even after 7 cycles of use. The results indicate the existence of strong complexation. The thermodynamic study results showed a spontaneous bonding between of Pb(II) and the polymers pendant groups expressed by the negative value of the Gibbs free energy.

Conclusion: Zeolite 4A disrupts the QS systems of C. violaceum and P. aeruginosa by means of adsorbing 3-oxo-C6-AHL and 3-oxo-C12-AHL signaling molecules and can be developed as a novel QS jammer to combat P. aeruginosa-related infections.

Modification of Cu(111) Surface with Alkylphosphonic Acids in Aqueous and Ethanol Solution—An Experimental and Theoretical Study

Alkylphosphonic acids are well known for their ability to form self-assembled monolayers on hydroxide surfaces. A crucial step to understanding fundamentally how these surfaces are created is the elucidation of the interaction process that leads to such interface creation. In this study, we employed electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics to understand this process. The interaction with the Cu(111) surface of three different alkylphosphonic acids (hexyl-, octyl- and decylphosphonic acids) is evaluated in an aqueous acidic and in an ethanol solution by Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations, while EIS measurements are used to put in evidence the impact of the layer made in ethanol on copper protection. Nyquist diagrams of copper samples modified with an alkylphosphonic monolayer showed a higher polarization resistance that mitigates the copper corrosion in an aqueous acid medium. The phase–frequency Bode plots had higher and broader phase maxima for a modified copper surface with phosphonic moieties, which confirmed the ability of this organic layer to prevent copper corrosion.

Field deployable impedance-based corrosion sensor

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) has been used in various applications, such as metal corrosion monitoring. However, many conventional corrosion monitoring setups are bulky and inconvenient for in-situ testing. The purpose of this work is to reduce the size of the whole corrosion monitoring system. We utilized EIS to design a field deployable impedance-based corrosion sensor (FDICS), capable of performing in-situ EIS analysis. Experiments verified the sensor’s accuracy, and the results showed that the sensor performed similarly to a bench-top EIS machine when we tested on circuit models. Furthermore, we used the proposed FDICS to monitor a metal corrosion experiment and performed EIS. The result showed that the proposed FDICS is able to obtain the sample’s impedance spectroscopy, which could help researchers test its corrosion severity on a metallic sample in-situ. Compared to other bulky conventional setups, our device eliminates the design complexity while still showing insights into the corrosion reaction.

An Experimental and Theoretical Investigation of the Efficacy of Pantoprazole as a Corrosion Inhibitor for Mild Steel in an Acidic Medium

The corrosion behavior of mild steel in a 1 M aqueous sulfuric acid medium in the presence and absence of the drug Pantoprazole was investigated using potentiodynamic polarization and quantum chemical calculations as well as Monte Carlo and molecular dynamic simulations. The potentiodynamic experiments indicated that this molecule, as a result of its adsorption on a mild steel surface, functioned as a mixed inhibitor. The goal of the study was to use theoretical calculations to acquire a better understanding of how inhibition works. The adsorption behavior of the examined compounds on the Fe (1 1 0) surface was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation. Furthermore, the molecules were studied using density functional theory (DFT), especially the PBE functional, to determine the relationship between the molecular structure and the corrosion inhibition behavior of the chemical under research. The adsorption energies of Pantoprazole (in its three different protonation states) iron were calculated more precisely using molecular mechanics with periodic boundary conditions (PBC). The predicted theoretical parameters were found to be in agreement with the experimental data, which was a considerable help in understanding the corrosion inhibition mechanism displayed by this chemical.

Anticorrosion Effect of Ethoxylate Sulfanilamide Compounds on Carbon Steel in 1 M Hydrochloric Acid: Electrochemical and Theoretical Studies

Metal corrosion is an important economic problem globally. One of the best ways to protect metal surfaces from corrosion is by the use of corrosion inhibitors, especially surfactants. This study assesses anticorrosion properties of three inhibitor compounds (S1, S2, and S3) of ethoxylate sulfanilamide containing 2, 10, and 20 units of ethylene oxide on carbon steel in 1 M HCl solution. The anticorrosive performance of S1, S2, and S3 was studied using potentiodynamic polarization (PDP), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), adsorption isotherm, surface tests (scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis), and computational studies (density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations) within the concentration range of 10^-6 to 10^-2 M at 30 ± 2 °C. The results of the methods used indicate that increasing the concentration of the inhibitor compounds improves the effectiveness of inhibition (from 50.9 to 98%), whereas the inhibition efficiency order for ethoxylated sulfanilamide compounds is S2 > S3 > S1 with the highest inhibiting efficiency, respectively, of 98.0, 95.0, and 90.0% for 10^-2 M. Also, PDP indicated that S1, S2, and S3 inhibitors act as mixed-type inhibitors and their adsorption obeys the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. Surface tests show that the studied compounds can significantly inhibit acid attack via chemical adsorption on the metal. Furthermore, all of the chemical descriptors derived from DFT indicate that the three inhibitors are quite well adsorbed by the adhesion centers on the CS surface. The three compounds' molecular geometries and electronic structures were calculated using quantum chemical calculations. Using theoretical computations, the energy difference between the highest occupied molecular orbital and the lowest occupied molecular orbital has been determined to represent chemical reactivity and kinetic stability of a composition.

Corrosion inhibiting effect of a green formulation based on Opuntia Dillenii seed oil for iron in acid rain solution

This study examines the development of a new green and eco-friendly formulation derived from Opuntia dillenii seed oil (labeled as FOD) and its application as a corrosion inhibitor to protect iron which is subject to corrosion phenomena that become important especially in acidic environments as acid rain.

Physicochemical properties and fatty acid analysis of Opuntia dillenii seed oil were performed and they demonstrated that the oil is a major source of unsaturated fatty acids, in particular linoleic acid, with a percentage of 73.388%.

Corrosion inhibition effect of FOD was studied by gravimetric methods, electrochemical measurements, and scanning electron microscopy coupled with elemental analysis (SEM/EDX). Obtained results confirmed that FOD behaves as a good mixed corrosion inhibitor with predominant anodic activity. Inhibition efficiency of FOD is more important when the concentration of FOD and the immersion time increase, reaching values up to 99%. FOD forms a barrier layer on the surface of the iron, and thereby minimizes the contact area between the metal surface and the corrosive solution. The adsorption behavior of FOD on iron surface obeys Langmuir adsorption isotherm with chemisorption and physisorption mechanism.

Disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate salt is known for its excellent coordinating properties with the metal ions. The present study deals with the investigation of the prepared Disodium EDTA functionalized chitosan in corrosion inhibition for mild steel in 1 M HCl. The modified chitosan was characterized by spectral studies, thermal analysis, and Zeta potential studies. The corrosion inhibition efficiency (%) was evaluated using the gravimetric method and electrochemical studies. The electrochemical studies included potentiodynamic polarization, linear polarization resistance, and electrochemical impedance methods. The modified chitosan polymer showed an inhibition efficiency of 96.63% for 500 ppm at 303 K. Adsorption process obeyed Langmuir isotherm. Experimental results and theoretical calculations endorsed initial physisorption followed by a chemisorption process. Surface characterization studies supported the formation of a protective film that enabled the inhibition process. Density functional theory, Monte Carlo studies, and molecular dynamics simulation studies show a good agreement with the experimental results. Two-way Analysis of Variance was performed to test the influence of immersion period and inhibitor concentration on the corrosion rate using the statistical software IBM SPSS 20.0. A quartic model was generated as the best fit with the highest R2 value of 0.973. Design Expert software was employed for statistical modeling fit.

Experimental, Monte Carlo and Molecular Dynamic Study on Corrosion Inhibition of Mild Steel by Pyridine Derivatives in Aqueous Perchloric Acid

The corrosion of mild steel in aqueous perchloric acid solution was studied in the presence and absence of four different pyridine derivatives. Electrochemical measurements point out that these molecules inhibit the corrosion of mild steel by acting as mixed inhibitors. The adsorbed molecules act as a barrier that prevents the oxidation of the metal and the hydrogen evolution reaction at the mild steel surface. Molecular insights vis-à-vis the corrosion process were acquired by the use of Density Functional Theory (DFT), Molecular Dynamics, and Monte Carlo calculations. Monte Carlo and Molecular Dynamic simulation were used to understand at the molecular level the adsorption ability of the studied molecules onto Fe(110) surface. The experimental results and theoretical calculations provided important support for the understanding of the corrosion inhibition mechanism expressed by the pyridine molecules.

Evaluation of Mechanical compressive strength of cementitious matrix with 12% of IER formulated by modified polymer (NEPS) at different percentages

During this paper, we improved the compressive strength of cementitious matrix based on ion exchanging resin (IER) at 12% and formulated by the modified novolac epoxy polymer surfactant (NEPS) at various percentages (0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5%). The results show that the introduction of 1% and 2% of NEPS in the cementitious matrix with 12% of IER increases the compressive strength compared to that of the basic matrix (from 7 to 90 days). However, the formulations 3, 4 and 5% show the compressive strength is less than that of the basic matrix (from 28 to 90 days).

Development rheological and anti-corrosion property of epoxy polymer and its composite

Epoxy polymer, namely, decaglycidyl pentamethylene dianiline of phosphorus (DGPMDAP) was synthesized in three steps. The synthesis of epoxy polymer DGPMDAP was investigated by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, rheological analysis, scanning electron microscope (SEM), stationary and transient electrochemical methods (PDP and EIS), respectively. The rheological properties of composite (DGPMDAP/MDA/TiO₂) without and with different percentages of titanium dioxide (0%, 5%, 10% and 15%) increase with both the increase in frequency and with rate of load of titanium dioxide. Besides, SEM micrographs shows a good dispersion of the titanium dioxide charge in the composite (DGPMDAP/MDA/TiO₂) elaborated. The results of PDP show that epoxy polymer DGPMDAP acts as mixed type inhibitor and reaches maximum corrosion inhibition efficiency reaches 92 % at 10⁻³ M. Besides, EIS results indicate that DGPMDAP act as good inhibitor for carbon steel in 1 M HCl solution and its efficiency reaches 91 % at 10⁻³ M of DGPMDAP. Furthermore, the adsorption of DGPMDAP on carbon steel surface obeyed Langmuir isotherm.
