Investigation of Corrosion Inhibitors by Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance Relaxometry Method

The changes taking place with the corrosion-resistant coating, but not the state of the surface subjected to corrosion are investigated in this paper in contrast to traditional approaches. We used the method of nitrogen relaxometry NQR and multi-exponential inversion of decay of longitudinal and transverse components of the nuclear magnetization is applied for the first time for this purpose. The results of experimental studies of changes in the distributions of spin-spin and spin-lattice relaxation of crystallite powder of sodium nitrite and urotropin, the mixture of which is used as a corrosion inhibitor of ferrous metals are considered.
