Preliminary Model for Correlation of Plasmon Resonance Spectra with Adherence Properties of Corrosion Inhibitors, VpCI-415

摘要

Recent studies have shown that there is correlation between the effectiveness of additives containing corrosion inhibitors and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectra. In principle, SPR spectroscopy is a valuable tool to examine metal-inhibitor association because it is specifically sensitive to interface structure or electrochemical processes at a metal surface due to contact with water or an electrolyte solution. In this paper we present a preliminary design of a fiber-optic sensor system based on the use of SPR spectra to obtain quantitative information concerning metal-solution interface structure and electrochemical influences of the ambient environment.
