ABSTRACT
The inhibition of coiled tubing steel corrosion in different hydrochloric (HCl) acid concentrations by
quaternary amine with variable hydrocarbon chain lengths ranging from 10 to 16 carbons and having
multiple adsorption sites was examined using a gravimetric method and electrochemical techniques
(Tafel plot). The effect of iodide ions on the performance of these corrosion inhibitors was investigated
as a function of acid concentration and temperature. Weight loss tests were conducted in 5 and 28 wt%
HCl acid at different temperatures and soaking times. The temperatures examined ranged from 86 to
194 oF. Tafel plot measurements were conducted for mild steel in inhibited/uninhibited 1 M HCl acid
solutions with and without iodide ions, and at temperatures of 86 and 194 oF. The results showed that
the inhibition efficiency (IE) of quaternary amine corrosion inhibitors increased significantly in the
presence of iodide ions at high acid concentration/temperature (28 wt% HCl and 194oF), indicating
synergistic effects. Minimum impact (no synergism) was observed for iodide ions at mild conditions (at
a temperature of 86 oF and HCl acid concentration of 5 wt%). Tafel plot measurements showed that the
quaternary amine corrosion compounds inhibit acid attack by either anodic or mixed-type mechanism.
This paper will present in detail the performance of quaternary amine corrosion inhibitors with/without
iodide ions as a function of acid concentration and temperature; and will discuss the potential inhibition
mechanisms.

Organic compounds with heteroatoms, such as sulfur, oxygen and nitrogen are effective corrosion
inhibitors for low carbon steel in acidic media. These organic compounds usually contain multiple bonds
and hydrophobic tail to enhance their IE. Inhibition of these compounds can be enhanced significantly
using halide ions. This type of interaction is called synergism. Synergistic inhibition is an effective mean
to improve the inhibitive force of the inhibitor, to decrease the amount of usage and to diversify the
application of the inhibitor in acidic media.1 Ridhwan et al., (2012)2 investigated the inhibitive effect of
mangrove tannin in presence/absence of halide ions on mild steel corrosion in 0.5 M hydrochloric acid.
They found that the synergistic effect increased in the order of Cl<Br<I. Solmaz et al., (2008)3 attributed
the different behavior of halide ions to the difference in radii. For example, the iodide ion with a radius
of 2.2 Å is more predisposed to adsorption than the bromide ion with a radius of 1.96 Å or the chloride
ion with a radius of 1.81 Å. Because of the larger ionic radius, the iodide ion has higher hydrophobicity
as compared to the other two halide ions. The adsorption of iodide ions onto the metal surfaces will
decrease the hydrophilicity of the metal surfaces, which is likely to promote the adsorption of organic
molecule in place of the water molecules.4 Al-Taq et al., (2011)5 found that iodide ions exhibited the
best synergism with a diamine inhibitor compared to bromide and chloride ions. They found that the
chloride ions tended to induce more corrosion at high temperature/acid concentration (HCl = 28 wt%
and T = 220 oF).
Coiled tubing (CT) is used typically during matrix or acid frac treatments to inject highly corrosive fluids
(e.g., HCl up to 31 wt%) directly into the target zones/formations bypassing casing and completion
hardware. Tubing internal diameters normally range from ¾” to 4” and single reel tubing lengths in
excess of 9 km are available commercially.6 Lack of an efficient inhibitor will result in deterioration of CT
steel and generation of huge amounts of iron ions which may precipitate as iron
oxides/hydroxide/sulfide and thus damaging formation permeability. The coupons used in the weight
loss part of this study were machined from a CT piece.
The objective of this work was to assess the performance of synthesized quaternary ammonium salts
as corrosion inhibitors in presence/absence of iodide ions. The synergistic effect was assessed
between these inhibitors and iodide ions as a function of temperature (86 and 194 oF) and HCl acid
concentration (5 and 28 wt%) using gravimetric and electrochemical methods.

Gravimetric experiments were carried out in glass cells containing high HCl acid solutions of 5 and 28
wt% in the presence and absence of corrosion inhibitors and iodide ions. The glass cells were placed in
a constant temperature bath, maintained at the required test temperature of 86 or 194 oF. Coiled tubing
(CT) steel coupons with dimensions of 1.175 x 0.57 x 0.10 inch and a surface area of 1.69 in2 were
used in the weight loss tests. The elemental composition of the CT steel coupons is given in Table 2.

In a typical weight loss experiment, the steel coupon was polished with 120, 240 and 480-grit silicon
carbide papers, then washed with distilled water, cleaned in ultrasound water bath, degreased with
acetone, washed with distilled water and finally, dried. The initial weight of the coupon was then
measured. After that, the coupon was soaked in 400 cm3 of the above described acid solution with and
without corrosion inhibitor for a fixed time of 2, 4 or 24 hours and at the temperature of interest (86 or
194 oF). Then the weight-loss was determined from the initial and final weights. The IE of the corrosion
inhibitors was calculated using Eq. 1:
IE. (%) = 100 (W o – W)/Wo ……………. (1)
Where W o and W are the weights in absence and presence of corrosion inhibitors in the acid,
respectively. Corrosion rates (C.R.) in g/cm2 and lb/ft2 were calculated using Eq. 2:
C.R. = W.L/S.A …………………………. (2)
Where W.L is the weight-loss in either gram or pound and S.A is the surface area of CT coupon
surfaces in either cm2 or ft2.
Iodide salt in the form of potassium iodide (KI) was examined to enhance performance of organic
corrosion inhibitors. Potassium iodide was examined at different concentrations ranging from 0.0001 to
0.1 M (0.166 to 16.60 g/L).8-11 In this study, KI salt was used at a concentration of 2.41 x 10-2 M which is
equivalent to 4 g/L. The aging time of coupons in acid solutions ranged from 2 to 24 hours depending
on the acid concentrations.
Electrochemical Methods
Electrochemical measurements were conducted in a conventional three-electrode cell of capacity 1,000
mL. Carbon steel 1018 coupons with the elemental composition given in Table 3 were used as a
working electrode while a Saturated Calomel Electrode (SCE) and a graphite electrode were used as
reference and counter electrodes, respectively. The potentiodynamic polarization analysis was carried
out using “GAMRY Instruments Interface 1000 E” and the data was analyzed using “Gamry Instrument
Framework version 1.5 software”.

Synergistic Effect of Iodide Ions with N,N-diallyl-N-propargyl (C10; C12 or C16) Ammonium
Bromide
Synergism is a combined action of compounds greater in total effect than the sum of the individual
effect.12 Synergism of corrosion inhibitors is either due to the interaction between components of the
inhibitor composition or due to interaction between the inhibitor and one of the ions present in the
aqueous solution.13 Synergistic inhibition is an effective means to improve the inhibitive force of an
inhibitor, to decrease the amount of usage, and to diversify the application of inhibitors in acidic media14
(Geethanjali et al., 2013). To determine the existence of synergy between the synthesized quaternary
amines and the halide ions, a synergism parameter was evaluated using the equation initially proposed
by the Aramaki and Hackermann in 1964 and reported in several papers (e.g., Aramaki and Hakerman
(1969), Abdallah et al., 2013):15,16

Where ϑ1+2 = ϑ1 + ϑ2 - (ϑ1•ϑ2); ϑ1 = the surface coverage by the halide ions; ϑ2 = the surface coverage by
the synthesized quaternary amines and ϑ’1+2 = the measured surface coverage by combination of the
inhibitor and halide ions. In our study, the halide ions are the iodide ions.
The synergism of iodide ions with the three synthesized corrosion inhibitors was examined as a
function of acid concentration (5 and 28 wt%) and temperature (86 and 194 oF). Tables 4-7 show the
synergism parameters calculated from the IEs obtained for iodine ions, inhibitors alone, iodide ions with
inhibitors, and combination of iodide ions with the inhibitors. For low acid concentration (5 wt%), there
was no synergism observed (Tables 4 and 5) since the obtained synergism parameters is less than 1
at the two examined temperatures (86 and 194 oF). The results showed that the temperature was not
the dominant factor to have a synergism between iodide ions and the synthesized inhibitors at HCl acid
concentration of 5 wt%.

The effect of a high acid concentration (28 wt%) was investigated at the two examined temperatures
(86 and 194 oF). Iodide ions exhibited synergistic behavior with all examined corrosion inhibitors (C10,
C12 and C16) at 194 oF where the obtained synergism parameters were above 1 and it was more
pronounced in the case of the C16 inhibitor (S1 = 2.379, Table 7). At a low temperature of 86 oF both
C10 and C12 exhibited synergism with iodide ions with S1 of 1.7709 and 1.664, respectively (Table 6).
The results revealed that both acid strength and temperature have influence on synergism of iodide
with examined inhibitors. Indeed, more influence was observed for the acid strength compared to
temperature for the examined temperature. These results suggest the need to use iodide ions to
enhance protection performance of examined inhibitors at high acid strength/high temperature
conditions.

Adsorption Isotherms
The establishment of adsorption isotherms that describe the adsorption of a corrosion inhibitor can
provide important clues to the nature of the metal-inhibitor interaction.17 The surface coverage of
different concentrations of the synthesized inhibitors in acidic media has been evaluated from weight
loss measurements and attempted to fit these values to different sorption isotherms. The Temkin,
Freundlich, Frumkin Langmuir and Langmuri-Freundlich adsorption isotherms were used to examine
the adherence of the synthesized inhibitors on low carbon steel surfaces. The best fit was obtained for
El-Awadi and Frumkin models where a linear regression value of more than 0.95 was obtained. The El-
Awadi adsorption isotherm model is represented by Eq. 5.18

It is generally accepted that values of ΔGºads in the order of -20 kJ mol-1 or less negative are associated
with an electrostatic interaction between the charged inhibitor molecules and the charged metal surface
(physisorption); whereas, those of -40 kJ mole-1 or more negative involve charge sharing or transfer
from the inhibitor molecules to the metal surface to form a co-ordinate covalent bond (chemisorption).

As an example, Figure 2 shows a plot of log (θ /1- θ) versus log Cinh for the synthesized corrosion
inhibitors. The calculated average free energy of adsorption values (-30 to -33 KJ/mole) for the
synthesized corrosion inhibitors is given in Table 8. The negative value of ∆Gads indicates spontaneous
adsorption of the corrosion inhibitors on the low-carbon steel. The result suggests that the adsorption
mechanism of the synthesized corrosion inhibitors on the low-carbon steel surface in HCl solution is
combination of chemical and physical interaction.

CONCLUSIONS
Three quaternary ammonium salts with multiple adsorption sites and variable hydrocarbon chain
lengths ranging from 10 to 16 carbon atoms were synthesized and characterized using an
elemental analyzer, NMR and FTIR.
The behavior of the synthesized compounds as a function of acid strength and temperature was
examined using both gravimetric and electrochemical methods (Tafel).
The corrosion rate of steel increases with temperature in all examined acid concentrations in the
presence and absence of the inhibitors.
The synergism between synthesized inhibitors and iodide ions is more dominant at high
HCl/temperature conditions (28 wt% and 194 oF); synergism parameters (S1 >1).
At mild conditions (HCl = 5 wt% and T = 86 oF), there was no synergism between the synthesized
corrosion inhibitors and the iodide ions as indicated from the calculated synergism parameters (S1
<1).
A free energy of adsorption of -30 to -33 KJ/mole was calculated for the synthesized corrosion
inhibitors on the CT steel; hence, combined physisorption/chemisorption mechanism is expected.
The values of corrosion potential (Ecorr.) were shifted to less negative values in the presence of C12
and C16 inhibitors and remained unchanged for C10 inhibitor. Tafel plot results indicate that both
C12 and C16 inhibited corrosion of carbon steel in 1 M HCl acid by suppressing/retarding the
anodic reaction while C10 inhibitor exhibited a mixed-type mechanism (suppressing/retarding both
anodic and cathodic reactions).
