Abstract
A bimannich-based TZBM containing a thiazole ring was obtained by synthesis of mannich bases. TZBM featured a stable structure at 260 °C, and corrosion inhibition effect on carbon steel in a gas-liquid environment with Cl(-) + H(2)S + CO(2) at 180 °C. By analyzing the weight loss of steel exposed to different TZBM concentrations, the coverages of the inhibitor adsorbed on the surfaces were determined, and the results conformed to Langmuir isotherm model. Furthermore, the negative Gibbs free energy indicated that the adsorption was a spontaneous process.
