Subramanyam, N. C. published the artcileThiourea and substituted thioureas as corrosion inhibitors for aluminum in sodium nitrite solution, Name: 1,1-Dimethylthiourea, the publication is Corrosion Science (1993), 34(4), 563-71, database is CAplus.
The effect of sulfur-containing organic compounds such as thiourea (TU), Ph thiourea (PTU), di-Ph thiourea (DPTU), allyl thiourea (ATU), p-tolyl thiourea (p-TTU) and N,N-di-Me thiourea (DMTU) on the corrosion of aluminum in sodium nitrite solution at 303 K was investigated using weight loss and polarization techniques. A significant decrease in the corrosion rate of aluminum was observed by the presence of traces of these compounds The corrosion rate was a function of the nature, concentration of the inhibitor, and temperature of the medium. The degree of surface coverage calculated from the results was used to evaluate the free energy of adsorption of the inhibitors. All the inhibitors follow the Frumkin adsorption isotherm. The mechanism of inhibitor action has been discussed on the basis of adsorption and mol. polarizability of the inhibitor. These compounds act as cathodic inhibitors. The neg. values of free energy of adsorption and high degree of protection also confirm the strong interaction of these compounds on the corroding aluminum surface.
