Corrosion inhibition at emergent grain boundaries studied by DFT for 2-mercaptobenzothiazole on bi-crystalline copper
Abstract Inhibition of the initiation of intergranular corrosion was modeled at the atomic scale for 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) adsorbed on a (110)-oriented copper bi-crystal exposing an emergent Σ9 coincident site lattice (CSL) grain boundary (GB) using dispersion-corrected density functional th...
