| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to the use of charged cellulose nanocrystals as a corrosion inhibitor. According to one aspect, there is provided a corrosion inhibitor comprising of a plurality of charged cellulose nanocrystals fibrils. There is further provided a process for inhibiting corrosion of metal equipment where water can reside. According to a further aspect, the process includes adding an effective corrosion inhibiting amount of acid-form the cellulose nanocrystals. According to another aspect, the process includes selectively causing a first set of the cellulose nanocrystals to be negatively charged. The first set of the cellulose nanocrystals so charged function as an anodic corrosion inhibitor. The process includes selectively causing a second set of the cellulose nanocrystals to be positively charged. The second set of the cellulose nanocrystals so charged functions as a cathodic corrosion inhibitor. |
