The corrosion issues have led to great interest in industry and academia to control corrosion of metallic pipelines in various oilfields around the world. Among the existing corrosion control methods, surfactant inhibitors have widely been used for corrosion inhibition of metallic pipelines. One model for the prediction of corrosion inhibition efficiency of various pure surfactant and mixed surfactants in aqueous media is developed and validated. The prediction model is based on Langmuir adsorption (LA) sub-model in combination with a critical micelle concentration (cmc) prediction sub-model to create an integrated corrosion inhibition prediction model. The model derivation is introduced by using an example of mixed homologous benzalkonium chlorides (BAC) in NaCl-containing aqueous media and further validated using addnl. testing systems of pure and mixed surfactants. This developed corrosion inhibition prediction model provides a potential method to evaluate the effectiveness of various surfactants in metal corrosion inhibition under various conditions of aqueous media. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 1-Dodecylpyridin-1-ium bromide (cas: 104-73-4Formula: C17H30BrN).
1-Dodecylpyridin-1-ium bromide (cas: 104-73-4) belongs to pyridine derivatives. Pyridines are an important class of heterocycles and occur in polysubstituted forms in many naturally occurring biologically active compounds, drug molecules and chiral ligands. Many analogues of pyridine are known where N is replaced by other heteroatoms . Substitution of one C–H in pyridine with a second N gives rise to the diazine heterocycles (C4H4N2), with the names pyridazine, pyrimidine, and pyrazine.Formula: C17H30BrN
