Formation, characterization and corrosion protection efficiency of self-assembled 1-octadecyl-1H-imidazole films on copper for corrosion protection

A film of 1-octadecyl-1H-imidazole (OI) has been formed on copper surface by the self-assembly technique. The optimum concentration of OI and immersion period for the formation of protective OI film have been established using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). X-ray photoelectron spectro...
