Abstract
The syntheses and characterisation of Rare-Earth-Metals (REMs) heteroaromatic complexes, via the use of green organic esters such as Pyridinecarboxylate (Pyc) or heteroaromatic organic to form stable compounds ie. Lanthanide-Pyridinecarboxylate (Ln-Pyc), has been demonstrated to be one of the preferred compounds to form a good protective-film over metal-alloys. The electrochemical techniques of Linear Polarisation Resistance (LPR) and Cyclic-Potentiodynamic Polarisation (CPP) used in the studies demonstrated strong protective properties to the metal-alloys from the E corr-potential and the I corr-current. This is because the I corr-current was reduced by many folds when coupons were immersed in NaCl (0.01M) as a control bulk-electrolyte containing Ln-Pyc complexes. The data has also confirmed that the Ln-Pyc complexes clearly displayed a mixed-type of protective function. Thus, the overall metal dissolution rate of metallic alloys is mitigated and also indicated a healing mechanistic process involves in building a dense molecular composite-films, when the alloy-coupons were immersed into the solution containing REMs complexes. The characterisation of in-situ treated surfaces via the use of ATR-FTIR, FTIR-microscopy spectrum revealed the overall protective characteristics were discussed in this paper.
