The invention discloses a
Schiff base as a low-
carbon steel corrosion inhibitor and a preparation and use method thereof, and the preparation method of the
Schiff base comprises the following steps: a) respectively dissolving
syringaldehyde and 1, 4-phenylenediamine in
ethanol according to a ratio of 4.1736: 1.2388 to form a first solution and a second solution; b) under the stirring condition of 25 DEG C, dropwise adding a second solution dissolved with 1, 4-phenylenediamine into the first solution through a constant-pressure
dropping funnel; c) after dropwise adding, continuously performing
reflux reaction at 25 DEG C for 4 hours, and separating out a yellow
solid; and d) filtering, washing with
acetonitrile, and
drying to obtain
syringaldehyde-1, 4-phenylenediamine
Schiff base (SPSB), which forms a coordinate bond with
metal through two N atoms to form a compact adsorption protective film.
Syringaldehyde and phenylenediamine are used as raw materials,
phosphorus-free and
sulfur-free SPSB is prepared, a compact
chelation protection film is formed on the surface of low-
carbon steel through dinitrogen-
oxygen multipoint coordination, the functions of
anode barrier and
cathode hydrogen inhibition are achieved, and efficient and lasting mixed
corrosion inhibition is achieved.
