Ionic Liquids as Corrosion Inhibitors
Özet
Due to economic importance of corrosion prevention of materials, the design of new and effective corrosion inhibitors is one of the important topics of the science.
Especially, the development of green and sustainable methods in corrosion science is among the topics of interest of material scientists. It is widely reported that ionic liquids are effective corrosion inhibitors due to their low volatility, non-inflammability, non-toxic nature and high adsorption ability on metal surfaces.
Many ionic liquids are used in the prevention of the corrosion metal surfaces. In this chapter, applications and remarkable properties as corrosion inhibitor of ionic liquids are presented in detailed. Additionally, corrosion inhibition applications of some electronic structure principles and electronic structure analyses of the ionic liquids are highlighted. Some parts about the chemical reactivity of ionic liquids are presented. The usefulness of some new parameters proposed as an indicator about the corrosion inhibition performances of molecules will be mentioned in this chapter and will be proven in the next paper projects.
