Corrigendum to “A Study of N,N-Diethylammonium O,O′-Di(p-methoxyphenyl)‎dithiophosphate as New Corrosion Inhibitor for Carbon Steel in Hydrochloric Acid Solution”

Abstract EN

The article titled “A Study of N,N-Diethylammonium O,O′-Di(p-methoxyphenyl)dithiophosphate as New Corrosion Inhibitor for Carbon Steel in Hydrochloric Acid Solution” [1] contained an error in Section 3.2.2, Adsorption Isotherm.

The text reading “In general, the values of ΔGads0 around −20 kJ mol-1 or less negative are associated with an electrostatic interaction between charged inhibitor molecules and charged metal surface (physisorption) and those of −40 kJ mol-1 or more negative involve charge sharing or transfer of electrons from the inhibitor molecules to the metal surface to form a coordinate type bond (chemisorption).

Based on (8), the value of ΔGads0 for EAPP on carbon steel in HCl solution at different temperatures is 33.11 kJ mol-1.

It indicates that the adsorption of EAPP on carbon steel surface in 0.5 M HCl is chemical adsorption” should be updated as follows:
