Synthesis of Silane-Modified Nanoparticles-Based Corrosion Inhibitor for Acidic Corrosion

Acidizing process is generally performed on wells to maximize their initial productivity and on aging wells to restore productivity and maximize the recovery of the energy resources. The process involves pumping acid into a wellbore or geologic formation that is capable of producing oil and/or gas. Well acidizing is accomplished by pumping acid into the well to dissolve limestone, dolomite and calcite cement between the sediment grains of the reservoir rocks.

Corrosion can cause serious metal deterioration and equipment failure in the oil and gas industry and poses a safety hazard. It occurs in presence of an aqueous solution and acidic media when conditions permit. The application of metal protection is one of the most industrially economical methods of controlling metallic corrosion in an acidic environment.
Herein, a silane-modified nanoparticle corrosion inhibitor has been successfully synthesized and characterized by different analysis methods. Silica nanoparticles were fabricated by organosilane composite with carboxylic groups(-COOH) as a terminal group to yield a long polymeric chain attached to the surface of the silica nanoparticle, which can work as an effective corrosion inhibitor.
