ABSTRACT
The corrosion inhibitor of
carbon steel in 1% NaCl solution by curcuminoids has been studied at 27oC
using weight loss and electrochemical method. The determination of corrosion
inhibition efficiency (%eff) utilising weight loss method at the concentration
of 80 ppm showed the best result of 78.70% for third isolated fraction. Further
determination utilising Tafel method showed the following results: raw pure
extract of curcuminoid gave 89.88% at 50 ppm; the first isolated fraction gave
46.50% at 80 ppm; the second isolated fraction gave 44.83% at 30 ppm; and the
third isolated fraction gave 92.44% at 70 ppm. Based on the analysis of Tafel
extrapolation curve, the raw pure extract and the third fraction of curcuminoid
acted as anodic inhibitor, whereas the first and the second fraction performed
as cathodic inhibitors. The evaluations of synergism parameter (Sθ)
indicate that the enhancement in inhibition efficiency towards raw pure extract
was caused by the presence of second and third fractions as cathodic and anodic
inhibitors. The contribution of steric hindrance of methoxy groups in
curcuminoid structure causes the decrease in curcuminoid activity to be
adsorbed on the electrode (carbon steel) surface.
Keywords: Anodic inhibitor;
cathodic inhibitor; corrosion inhibitor; Tafel
ABSTRAK
Perencat
kakisan daripada kumpulan kurkuminoid terhadap aloi karbon dalam larutan NaCl
1% telah dikaji pada suhu 27oC menggunakan kaedah
hilang-berat dan elektrokimia. Penentuan kecekapan
perencat kakisan (%eff) menggunakan kaedah kehilangan berat pada kepekatan 80
ppm menunjukkan hasil terbaik 78.70% untuk fraksi ketiga hasil pemencilan.
Penentuan lebih lanjut menggunakan kaedah Tafel menunjukkan hasil seperti
berikut: ekstrak kasar kurkuminoid tulen memiliki kecekapan perencat kakisan
89.88% pada 50 ppm; peringkat pemisahan pertama 46.50% pada 80 ppm; peringkat
pemisahan kedua 44.83% pada 30 ppm; dan peringkat pemisahan ketiga 92.44% pada
70 ppm. Analisis terhadap lengkung ekstrapolasi Tafel menunjukkan bahwa ekstrak
kasar tulen dan peringkat pemisahan ketiga kurkuminoud bertindak sebagai
inhibitor anodik, sedangkan peringkat pemisahan pertama dan kedua berfungsi
sebagai inhibitor katodik. Parameter sinergisme (Sθ)
menunjukkan bahawa peningkatan kecekapan perencat pemangkinan dalam ekstrak
kasar tulen disebabkan oleh adanya peringkat pemisahan kedua dan ketiga sebagai
inhibitor katodik dan anodik. Sumbangan halangan
sterik daripada kumpulan metoksi dalam struktur kurkuminoid menyebabkan
penurunan keaktifan kemampuan kurkuminoid untuk terjerap pada permukaan
elektrod (aloi karbon).
Kata kunci: Perencat anodik; perencat katodik; perencat
