An impedance investigation of corrosion protection of copper by self-assembled monolayers of alkanethiols in aqueous solution

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of three n-alkanethiols, 1-octadecanethiol (C18SH), 1-dodecanethiol (C12SH), and 1-hexanethiol (C6SH), were formed on fresh, oxide-free copper surfaces obtained by HNO3 etching. The corrosion protection abilities of the three alkanethiol SAMs were evaluated in 0.2 mo...
