[0048] The present application also provides the use of the steel bar corrosion instant response rust-preventing system in inhibiting steel bar corrosion.

[0049] The technical solutions provided by the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with the examples, but they should not be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present application.

[0050] In the examples and comparative examples, the weight average molecular weight of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is 35,000, the hydrolysis degree is 98.5%, the mass fraction of the hydrogen peroxide aqueous solution is 3%, and the purity of triethanolamine (TE) is 99%.

[0051] The ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer (UV-vis) was a platinum gold Lambda 750; the Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR) were recorded on a Thermo Fisher Scientific Nicolet iS20 spectrometer in the frequency range 400-4000 cm -1 at a resolution of 1 cm -1 -1; the scanning electron microscope was a Zeiss Sigma 300 scanning electron microscope.

[0052] Example 1

[0053] At room temperature, 22 g of triethanolamine was placed in a three-necked flask equipped with a condenser, a thermometer and a mechanical stirrer, then the flask was immersed in a magnetically stirred oil bath, heated to 100°C to reduce the viscosity of the triethanolamine; after heating for 30 min, 25 g of gallic acid was slowly added to the flask, followed by the addition of 0.6 g of 4-dimethylpyridine as a catalyst, mixed until the gallic acid was completely dissolved, the temperature of the oil bath was increased to 120°C, and the mixture was continuously stirred at a speed of 600 rpm for 12 h; after cooling the mixture in the three-necked flask to room temperature, a reddish-brown liquid, i.e. gallic acid ester TG, was obtained.

[0054] A mixture of 4.9 mL of aniline and 11.4 mL of ethylbenzene was added to 50 mL of water containing 0.625 g of sodium dodecyl sulfate, stirred at room temperature at a speed of 1000 rpm for 1 h, then 0.3 g of gallic acid ester TG was added, mixed uniformly, and emulsified with ultrasonic power of 405 W for 300 s. After emulsification, 24.5 mL of polyvinyl alcohol aqueous solution (10 wt.%) was mixed with the microemulsion, and an aqueous solution of ammonium persulfate (molar ratio of aniline to ammonium persulfate was 1:1) was added dropwise into the mixture at a rate of 4 mL / min at room temperature. As the polymerization proceeded, the color of the microemulsion changed from white to brown, and then to dark green. After stirring at room temperature at a speed of 1000 rpm for 12 h, the polyaniline was filtered, washed repeatedly with deionized water several times to remove excess reactants until the filtrate was clear. Finally, it was dried in a vacuum oven at 80°C for 8 h to obtain a rust-resistant system (TG@PANI).

[0055] Comparative Example 1

[0056] Example 1 was omitted, and 0.3 g of gallic acid ester TG was obtained, to obtain polyaniline microcapsules (PANI).

[0057] Example 2

[0058] The preparation process of gallic acid ester TG was the same as in Example 1.

[0059] A mixture of 4.5 mL of aniline and 10.8 mL of ethylbenzene was added to 50 mL of water containing 0.575 g of sodium dodecyl sulfate, and after stirring at room temperature at a speed of 900 rpm for 1.2 h, 0.25 g of gallate TG was added, and after uniform mixing, emulsification was performed by ultrasonic treatment at a power of 395 W for 320 s. After emulsification, 27 mL of a polyvinyl alcohol aqueous solution (9 wt.%) was mixed with the microemulsion, and an aqueous solution of ammonium persulfate (molar ratio of aniline to ammonium persulfate: 1:1) was added dropwise to the mixture at a rate of 4 mL / min at room temperature. As the polymerization proceeded, the color of the microemulsion changed from white to brown and then to dark green. After stirring at room temperature at a speed of 900 rpm for 13 h, the polyaniline was filtered, and washed repeatedly with deionized water several times to remove excess reactants until the filtrate was clear. Finally, drying was performed in a vacuum oven at 80°C for 8 h to obtain a rust-preventing system (TG@PANI).

[0060] Example 3

[0061] The gallate TG was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1.

[0062] A mixture of 5.5 mL of aniline and 12.2 mL of ethylbenzene was added to 50 mL of water containing 0.675 g of sodium dodecyl sulfate, and after stirring at room temperature at a speed of 1100 rpm for 1 h, 0.35 g of gallate TG was added, and after uniform mixing, emulsification was performed by ultrasonic treatment at a power of 415 W for 280 s in an ice-cooled environment. After emulsification, 24.75 mL of a polyvinyl alcohol aqueous solution (11 wt.%) was mixed with the microemulsion, and an aqueous solution of ammonium persulfate (molar ratio of aniline to ammonium persulfate: 1:1) was added dropwise to the mixture at a rate of 4 mL / min at room temperature. As the polymerization proceeded, the color of the microemulsion changed from white to brown and then to dark green. After stirring at room temperature at a speed of 1100 rpm for 11 h, the polyaniline was filtered, and washed repeatedly with deionized water several times to remove excess reactants until the filtrate was clear. Finally, drying was performed in a vacuum oven at 80°C for 8 h to obtain a rust-preventing system (TG@PANI).

[0063] Example 4

[0064] The gallate of Example 1 was replaced with protocatechuic acid, and the other process conditions were the same as in Example 1.

[0065] Example 5

[0066] The gallate TG of Example 1 was replaced with caffeic acid, and the other process conditions were the same as in Example 1.

[0067] Performance tests were performed on the gallate TG of Example 1, the rust-preventing system TG@PANI, and the polyaniline microcapsule PANI of Comparative Example 1.

[0068] (1) Characterization of redox-responsive carriers

[0069] The performance of the polyaniline microcapsules was characterized by microscopic testing method. The SEM image of the polyaniline microcapsules of Comparative Example 1 is shown in Figure 1 . The polyaniline microcapsules are uniform spherical particles in appearance and independent of each other. The size of the microcapsules varies, but the size difference is small, and most of the microcapsules have a diameter of 400-1000 nm from the image.

[0070] The UV-Vis spectra of PANI of Comparative Example 1 and TG of Example 1 are shown in Figure 2 . The FTIR spectra of PANI of Comparative Example 1, TG and TG@PANI of Example 1 are shown in Figure 3 . It can be seen from Figure 2 that the polyaniline microcapsules and TG have strong peaks at wavelengths of 310 nm and 277 nm, respectively, which are attributed to the π-π* absorption band related to benzene structure. The absorption peak at a wavelength of 277 nm is the largest, which can be used as the characteristic peak of TG to determine the concentration in the solution. It can be seen from Figure 3 that in the spectrum of the polyaniline microcapsules, peaks at 1569 cm -1 and 1493 cm -1 can be observed, which are derived from the stretching vibration of C=C bond in benzene ring and quinone ring. The peaks near 1295 cm -1 and 1139 cm -1 are related to the stretching vibration of C-N bond. The peaks at 725-890 cm -1 are derived from the in-plane bending vibration peak of benzene ring. The FTIR spectrum of TG@PANI changes significantly, and the peaks near 3300 cm -1 and 2948 cm -1 are attributed to the stretching vibration of -OH bond of hydroxyl group and -C-H bond of saturated hydrocarbon in TG. The peaks at 1081 cm -1 and 1036 cm -1 increase, which are related to the stretching vibration of C-O bond in TG, indicating that TG is successfully loaded in the polyaniline microcapsules.

[0071] (2) Release of redox-responsive carrier

[0072] The SEM images of PANI of Comparative Example 1 and TG@PANI of Example 1 before and after being soaked in 0.05 mmol / L DTT solution are shown in Figure 4 , wherein a and c are before soaking, and b and d are after soaking; the TG concentration-time change image of TG@PANI of Example 1 soaked in pure water, 0.05 mmol / L DTT solution and 0.05 mmol / L H2O2 solution (the concentration of TG@PANI in the solution is 0.50 g / L) is shown in Figure 5 . It can be seen fromFigure 4 It can be seen that before adding the reducing agent, the microcapsules are complete spherical as a whole, and after reduction by the DTT-containing solution, the microcapsule morphology changes significantly, the capsule wall is broken, and large holes are formed, which can release the contents. This is because the PANI is affected by the reducing agent, and changes from the fully oxidized state to the semi-oxidized or reduced state, which reduces the conjugated structure and leads to structural damage. From the SEM images of the microcapsules before and after reduction, it can be seen that the microcapsules are complete spherical as a whole before adding the reducing agent, and after reduction by the DTT-containing solution, the microcapsule morphology changes significantly, the capsule wall is broken, and large holes are formed, which can release the contents. This is because the PANI is affected by the reducing agent, and changes from the fully oxidized state to the semi-oxidized or reduced state, which reduces the conjugated structure and leads to structural damage. Figure 5 It can be seen that in pure water and H2O2-containing environment, the TG concentration does not change significantly with time, indicating that the microcapsules do not break down in water environment and in the presence of oxidizing agent, and the system has weak response to oxidizing agent. However, when it is immersed in 0.05 mmol / L DTT, the TG concentration increases rapidly within 3 h, and the concentration tends to be stable after 12 h, indicating that the microcapsule system has strong sensitivity to reducing agent. When the microcapsules are stimulated by reduction reaction, the structure is destroyed, and the contents are released rapidly, realizing timely response. The TG concentration in the solution is about 125 g / mL after 24 h, and it can be inferred that the loading efficiency (LE) of the microcapsules is about 25-30%.

[0073] (3) Electrochemical behavior of the carrier acting on the surface of the steel bar

[0074] The carbon steel is a cylindrical Q235 carbon steel with a diameter of 10 mm, the elastic modulus Es is 210 x 105N / mm 2 , and the Poisson's ratio is 0.33. The mass percentage of each element in the carbon steel is: C 0.17%, Si 0.09%, Mn 0.28%, S 0.007%, P 0.011%, and the balance is Fe.

[0075] Preparation of steel bar samples: The carbon steel (HRB400) sample is sealed with epoxy resin sealant (any commercially available epoxy resin sealant can be used, and the sealing thickness is 4 mm), and the exposed working surface has a diameter of 10 mm and an area of 78.5 mm2. External wires are connected to facilitate electrochemical testing. The exposed surface of the steel sample is polished with 80 mesh, 400 mesh, 800 mesh, 1500 mesh, 2000 mesh, 3000 mesh, and 4000 mesh sandpaper, respectively, and then polished to a mirror surface with diamond polishing agent (1.0 μm, 0.5 μm), and then washed with deionized water and anhydrous ethanol. Finally, it is placed in a vacuum drying oven and dried at 60°C for standby.

[0076] The corrosion of the steel bar samples in different environments was tested by electrochemical test method. The electrochemical test of three-electrode cell system was carried out by electrochemical workstation. The working electrode was carbon steel sample, and the saturated calomel electrode (SCE) and platinum electrode were used as reference electrode and counter electrode, respectively. The electrolyte was simulated concrete pore solution, and the steel bar samples were placed in three kinds of simulated solutions respectively, and the OCP value of the sample was continuously monitored. The electrochemical test was carried out for three times to ensure the repeatability of each test.

[0077] SP0 was a saturated Ca(OH)2 solution with 3.5% NaCl added as a blank group for corrosion solution; SP1 was a saturated Ca(OH)2 solution with 3.5% NaCl added and 0.1% PANI from Comparative Example 1 added; SPTG1 was a saturated Ca(OH)2 solution with 3.5% NaCl added and 0.1% TG@PANI from Example 1 added. SP1 and SPTG1 were used as rust inhibitor groups.

[0078] The graphs showing the change in open-circuit potential of carbon steel immersed in different simulated solutions over 72 hours are as follows: Figure 6 As shown, by Figure 6 It was observed that in the initial immersion stage, the open circuit potential of all samples showed a decreasing trend, indicating a strong electrochemical reaction on the surface of the carbon steel samples, which intensified over time. With continued immersion, the open circuit potential of the blank group samples decreased continuously with increasing time, stabilizing after 24 hours, with the OCP below -0.5V, indicating a vigorous electrochemical reaction on the steel surface and a rapid corrosion rate. The carbon steel samples under the influence of PANI and TG@PANI microcapsules showed a rebound in OCP value after 3 hours of immersion, with a more significant rebound in the TG@PANI group, indicating that the addition of microcapsules slowed down the corrosion rate of the steel, and the control effect was significantly enhanced after loading with TG. After 72 hours of immersion, the OCP of the TG-loaded PANI microcapsule group remained at a high level, while the OCP value of the pure PANI microcapsule group showed a decreasing trend. This indicates that single PANI microcapsules have limited inhibitory effect on the corrosion of carbon steel, while TG@PANI microcapsules can significantly control the corrosion of the steel. When steel was initially immersed in the simulated solution, it was exposed to a high concentration of Cl... - The increased surface activity of the reinforcing steel can lead to localized corrosion. While the addition of PANI allows the organic polymer molecules to continuously adsorb onto the steel surface via their polar groups, limiting corrosion to some extent, the effect is limited. Adding TG-loaded PANI microcapsules triggers capsule rupture during active corrosion, releasing the encapsulated TG corrosion inhibitor and further slowing the corrosion rate.

[0079] (4) Surface material and morphology

[0080] SP0 was a saturated Ca(OH)2 solution with 3.5% NaCl added as a blank group for corrosion solution; SP1 was a saturated Ca(OH)2 solution with 3.5% NaCl added and 0.1% PANI from Comparative Example 1 added; SPTG1 was a saturated Ca(OH)2 solution with 3.5% NaCl added and 0.1% TG@PANI from Example 1 added. SP1 and SPTG1 were used as rust inhibitor groups.

[0081] 1) SEM / EDS analysis: To further evaluate the protective effect of the rust- resistant system, the surface of the carbon steel samples immersed in different solutions for 72 h was analyzed for morphology and elements.

[0082] The SEM images of the surface of the carbon steel samples immersed in SP0, SP1 and SPTG1 solutions for 72 h and the corresponding EDS spectra are shown in Figure 7 , where a is the blank group, b is the addition of 0.1% PANI, and c is the addition of 0.1% TG@PANI. As can be seen from Figure 7 (a), there are a large number of uneven protrusions on the surface of the sample, and it is porous. Combined with EDS element analysis, it is found that the porous product is mainly composed of Fe and O elements, and it is speculated that it is the iron oxide generated by the corrosion of the reinforcing bar. It shows that the sample in the blank group has been subjected to the invasion of high concentration Cl - , and obvious pitting has occurred. Figure 7 (b) can be seen that there is no obvious large volume of iron oxide formed on the surface of the carbon steel, but a large number of pores of different sizes can be observed. After magnification, it is found that (Figure b-1) there are many sheet-like and needle-like substances together to form a porous surface, and combined with EDS analysis, it is known that it is mainly iron oxide, which may be Fe2O3 and FeOOH. It shows that although the surface of the sample is more uniform than that of the blank group, obvious corrosion has occurred, and the small pores on the surface are caused by the local corrosion of the reinforcing bar induced by Cl - . The protection of the polyphenylamine microcapsule loaded with TG on the reinforcing bar against Cl - erosion is limited. Figure 7 (c) can be seen that the surface of the sample is uniform and smooth, and the local corrosion pits are obviously reduced. Further observation shows that the surface is uniformly covered with a layer of sheet-like substance, and the element analysis result shows that it is mainly composed of Fe, C and O elements, indicating that a thin layer of organic matter is covered on the surface, and the Fe element is obviously more from the carbon steel substrate. The morphology of the sheet-like substance is obviously different from that of the iron oxide in Figure (b-1), which may be the destroyed polyphenylamine microcapsule shell. It shows that the polyphenylamine microcapsule loaded with TG can release TG after being destroyed, form a dense protective layer on the surface of the reinforcing bar, block the invasion of the corrosion medium, and thus protect the reinforcing bar from serious corrosion.

[0083] 2) Raman spectrum

[0084] The composition of the surface material of the carbon steel sample immersed in the three solutions for 72 h was analyzed by Raman spectrum, and the Raman spectrum of the surface of the carbon steel sample immersed in SP0 (blank group), SP1 (PANI) and SPTG1 (TG@PANI) solution for 72 h is shown in Figure 8 . As can be seen from Figure 8 , the surface of the sample in the blank group is mainly composed of Fe, C and O elements, and the Raman spectrum shows that the main peaks are at 222.1 cm -1 , 209.4 cm -1 and 600.4 cm-1 The peaks observed at 399.8 cm -1 and 1314.1 cm -1 are attributed to γ-FeOOH, and the peaks observed at 536.4 cm -1 and 673.2 cm -1 are attributed to Fe3O4. It is shown that there are a large amount of iron oxides on the surface of the sample, which are also the corrosion products of iron in alkaline environment, indicating that the blank group steel sample has been obviously corroded after 72 h.

[0085] Compared with the blank sample, the iron oxides on the surface of the steel sample of the PANI microcapsule group (SP1) are reduced, and the peaks observed at 547.6 cm -1 and 678.2 cm -1 are attributed to Fe3O4. Moreover, new peaks appear in the region of 1300-1600 cm -1 , which are similar to those of the SPTG1 group and are mainly attributed to the vibration of benzene ring. The results show that the addition of PANI is insufficient to significantly control the progress of steel corrosion, and some corrosion products still appear on the surface. However, when TG@PANI microcapsules (SPTG1) are added, the capsules will be destroyed and release TG when corrosion occurs, and TG will react with metal ions at the active corrosion site to form chelates, which are adsorbed on the surface of the steel bar and form a dense protective layer to block the invasion of corrosive media, effectively controlling the progress of corrosion. It is shown that the TG-loaded PANI microcapsule system can effectively control the progress of steel corrosion and weaken the influence of corrosion on the performance of steel bars.

[0086] 3) X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS)

[0087] The XPS scanning spectrum of the surface of the carbon steel after immersion in SP0 (blank group), SP1 (PANI added), and SPTG1 (TG@PANI added) for 24 h is shown in Figure 9 It can be seen from Figure 9 that the Fe element peak is observed in all three groups of samples, indicating that the surface of the steel bar is covered with iron oxides. The C element peak of the blank sample is obviously smaller, and there is no N element peak, while the N element peak is obviously observed on the surface of the samples with added PANI and TG@PANI, indicating that PANI and TG@PANI are adsorbed on the surface of the steel bar. TG@PANI has a more obvious N peak, indicating an increase in N-containing organic matter, which is attributed to the N atom group in the TG molecule, indicating that TG is released and adsorbed on the steel surface in large amounts.

[0088] The application constructs a redox response targeted rust prevention system (TG@PANI microcapsule) by loading TG in spherical polyaniline. The rust prevention system of the application is sensitive to oxidation reaction, and can release TG quickly under the action of a reducing agent, and can be used for targeted treatment of active corrosion sites. TG@PANI can effectively control the corrosion of steel bars in a concrete simulation solution, significantly inhibits the corrosion rate within 3 hours after the active corrosion of the steel bar, and forms a stable protective layer after 12 hours. The action mechanism is that when the steel bar corrodes, the oxidation of Fe triggers the destruction of PANI to release TG, and TG forms a coordination compound with the active site Fe ion, and relies on the O and N heteroatom groups to be adsorbed on the surface of the steel bar, and together with PANI, a dense organic protective layer is formed to control the development of corrosion.

[0089] The application provides a novel green organic polyphenol rust prevention molecule having a repairing and protecting effect on corroded steel bars, a carrier material sensitive to the reduction reaction of the corrosion process of the steel bar is prepared, the rust prevention molecule is released in response to the corrosion of the steel bar in real time, and the rust prevention molecule reacts with the corrosion site, breaks through the functional limitation that traditional rust prevention agents are mainly used for prevention, realizes accurate targeted repair and effective control of the corrosion site of the steel bar, and guarantees accurate and efficient use of the rust prevention molecule.

[0090] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the application, and it should be noted that, for ordinary skilled persons in the art, some improvements and refinements can be made without departing from the principles of the application, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the application.
