Abstract

The present study is designed to demonstrate the substituent dependent molecular structures on inhibition property of four heterocyclic compounds containing nitrogen, sulfur and oxygen atoms for mild steel corrosion in 1 M HCl. Their inhibition effect was measured using weight loss, open circuit potential (OCP), potentiodynamic polarization (PDP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) and computational methods. Outputs of the experimental and computation studies showed that their inhibition efficiencies followed the order: PBT-IV (
