Abstract: The adsorption behavior of dodecylamine and its effect on the wettability and corrosion of carbon steel in hydrochloric acid solution were studied. Polarization data suggest that inhibition of carbon steel corrosion is due to geometric blocking effect of adsorbed dodecylamine molecules on the metal surface, which leads to the formation of a monolayer on the metal. Phase images measured by tapping-mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) reveal different properties of the surface with and without various concentrations of dodecylamine. AFM force–distance curves indicate that sample surface exhibits adhesion characteristic after the adsorption of dodecylamine. Contact angle measurements show that dodecylamine reduces surface wettability obviously.
