PROJECT

1. M.S. Dissertation Title: STUDIES OF THE INHIBITORY ACTION OF AMINO ACIDS ON

MILD STEEL IN 3.5% NaCl SOLUTION

Aspartic acid,Glutamic acid,N-benzenesulphonomido aspartic acid have been observed that the rate of corrosion on the specimen shows a decreasing treand in presence of all the aforesaid inhibitors throught showing a more intense rate of inhibition in the presence of the pure aspartic, N-benzene sulphonyl aspartic acid with conc. 0.0005 M. It has been observed that the rate of corr. decreases with the increase in conc. Of the inhibitor for both aspartic and glutamic acid inhibitors. The maximum inhibition was attained at conc. It is therefore evident that glutamic is better inhibitor than the aspartic. Hence it may be concluded that chemisorption plays a more decisive role in the inhibition process than chelation because aspartic isomer will for long chain chelate and is expected to be more stable than complex Corrosion inhibition is a function of the conc. of inhibitors and is formed to increase with increased concentration. Glutamic acid was found to better inhibitor then aspartic acid. This is due to chemisorptions of the inhibitor on the surface of the alloy. Which is supported by EDS data N- benzene sulphonyl aspartic acid is found to be most effective because of the presence of benzenesulphonyl group. It will cover more surface area with same molar concentration and the inhibition efficiency is in the following order N –benzenesulphonomido aspartic acid > Glutamic acid >Aspartic acid .It is expected N- benzenesulphonomido glutamic acid would be most affected corrosion inhibitor.
