Özet

Many additives are preferred to extend the usage of concrete constructions in order to increase durability. These compounds have to be non-poisonous and have no undesirable consequences on the environs. Out of all these concerns, amino acids are mainly used in food and drug industries as well as safe corrosion inhibitors in a number of acid solutions. Here, the corrosion inhibition efficacy of optimum concentration (50 ppm) of caffeine and L-arginine has been investigated for reinforcement steel in mixture water (MW) environment. This was performed for a duration of 2 h, 7, 28, 56 and 90 d using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), dynamic EIS (DEIS), and potentiodynamic polarization (PDP) techniques. The surface of specimens was also investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM), optical profilometer (OP) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). DEIS results indicate that selected inhibitors protected reinforcement steel approximately up to 62% against corrosion till 7 d, then the effectiveness of the protection decreased to 30% on 90th day. It was also observed that L-arginine showed better inhibition efficiency than caffeine.
