The corrosion and corrosion inhibition of iron in HCl solutions in the absence and presence of pyrazole (PA) were investigated by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Changes in impedance parameters (Rct and Cdl) were indicative of the adsorption of PA on the iron surface. The adsorption of PA is found to obey Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The study suggests that this compound is an anodic inhibitor.
Hydrochloric acid is a strong inorganic acid that is used in many industrial processes such as refining metal. The application often determines the required product quality. Hydrogen chloride, not hydrochloric acid, is used more widely in industrial organic chemistry, e.g. for vinyl chloride and dichloroethane.
Typical amounts recommended by doctors range from 600 to 2,400 mg per meal. Use of betaine HCl should be monitored by a healthcare practitioner and should be considered only for indigestion sufferers who have been diagnosed with hypochlorhydria.
