MODELING AND OPTIMIZATION FOR PRODUCTION OF STAINLESS STEEL CORROSION INHIBITORS FORMULATED WITH 1,3-DIPHENYL-3-PHENYLSULFANYL-PROPAN-1-ONE: A CLEAN PROCESS CATALYSED BY FLUORAPATITE
The optimization for process production of stainless steel corrosion inhibitor formulated with 1.3-Diphenyl-3-phenylsulfanyl-propan-1-one was studied using a 2 block central composite design including 3 factors (weight of catalyst, reaction time, and quantity of solvent). This process catalyzed by Fluorapatite coupled with their ease of use and reduced environmental problems makes them attractive alternatives to homogeneous basic reagents.
