摘要

This work develops and statistically optimizes an eco-friendly corrosion inhibitor based on silicate-substituted hydroxyapatite (Si-HA) for carbon steel protection in 3.5% NaCl. Si-HA was synthesized via a sustainable precipitation route using CaO derived from guinea fowl eggshells as the calcium precursor, supporting waste valorization. XRD, FTIR, and SEM/EDS confirmed a single apatite phase and effective incorporation of SiO44− groups into the hydroxyapatite lattice. A Box–Behnken design coupled with response surface methodology (RSM) produced a highly significant quadratic model (p < 0.0001) with strong adequacy (R2 = 0.9938, R2adj = 0.9865, R2pred = 0.9665; lack-of-fit not significant). The optimal conditions were identified as Si1-HA, 150 ppm, 293 K, and 0.5 h, yielding a predicted inhibition efficiency of 97.44% and an experimental value of 98%. Under these conditions, the corrosion current density decreased from 452 to 9.04 μA.cm−2, while the charge-transfer resistance increased from 175.84 to 7622.8 Ω·cm2; the corrosion potential shift remained limited (ΔEcorr ≈ 50 mV), indicating mixed-type inhibition. EIS fitting further supported the formation of a protective film, as evidenced by a marked decrease in the interfacial capacitance (Cdl) from 102.63 to 19.76 μF.cm−2. Adsorption analysis followed the Freundlich isotherm (R2 = 0.996), consistent with strong surface affinity. Overall, Si1-HA derived from biowaste CaO can provide rapid, high-efficiency, and sustainable corrosion protection in saline environments.
