Herrin, three Gemini cationic surfactants related to benzo[d]thiazol-3-ium bromide with variable hydrocarbon chain lengths (TBC n = 6, 12, and 18) were synthesized successfully and confirmed by using IR and HNMR spectroscopies. Critical micelle concentration and different thermodynamic properties of all surfactants under study were measured using conductivity, density, molal volume, and refractive index techniques. The Critical micelle concentration of TBC 6, TBC 12, and TBC 18 surfactants measured from the different techniques shows an acceptable agreement.

In this study, three Gemini cationic surfactants related to thiazol-2-amine with three hydrocarbon chain lengths including 3-hexylthiazol-3-ium (TAC6), 3-dodecylthiazol-3-ium (TAC12) and octadecylthiazol3-ium (TAC18) were prepared. Surfactant structures were confirmed with IR and HNMR Spectroscopies. Critical micelle concentrations for all surfactants in 15% DMSO-Water solvent were measured using conductometric, refractometric, and densitometric techniques.

Two cationic surfactants based on thiazine, dodecyl thiazin bromide (DTB) and hexyl thiazin bromide (HTB), were synthesized, characterized, and investigated as corrosion inhibitors for API X-65 type steel in oil wells' formation water under an HS environment. Various spectroscopic techniques such as FTIR and H NMR were used to confirm the DTB and HTB chemical structures. The corrosion inhibition efficiency of the selected compounds was investigated using both potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements.

Two novel bithienyl fluorobenzamidine derivatives namely, 4-([2,2':5',2''-terthiophen]-5-yl)-2-fluorobenzamidine hydrochloride salt (MA-1615), 5'-(4-amidino-3-fluorophenyl)-[2,2'-bithiophene]-5-carboxamidine dihydrochloride salt (MA-1740) were synthesized, characterized and their corrosion inhibition properties were evaluated by electrochemical methods for carbon steel (C-steel) in 1 M HCl. Experimental investigations revealed that the inhibition effectiveness of the investigated inhibitors (INHs) by the Tafel polarization method followed the order: MA-1740 (96.9%) > MA-1615 (95.

The inhibition efficiency of cationic surfactants such as 1-ethyl-4-benzo[d][1,3]thiazin-1-ium bromide (BTB) and -ethyl--dioctyloctan-1-aminium bromide (DAB) for X-65 type carbon steel in oil well formation water under a HS environment has been studied using potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements. Fourier transform infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy techniques were used to confirm the chemical structures of BTB and DAB. The novelty of this work lies in modifying the long chains in the inhibitor, which leads to high efficiency.

Aliphatic tricationic surfactants were prepared by the esterification reaction, followed by a quaternization reaction to protect oil well facilities from corrosion problems. Microelemental analysis and Fourier transform infrared and H NMR spectroscopic techniques were performed to explore the obtained motifs. The performance of these amphiphiles as inhibitors for metallic S90 steel corrosion in formation water was investigated through electrochemical tests (potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy).
