Abstract

The present disclosure is directed to processes, compositions and agents for inhibiting corrosion in various substrates, for example metal substrates. The present disclosure is also directed to corrosion inhibitors comprising organometallic polymers such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), including compositions and processes comprising MOFs for inhibiting corrosion in metal substrates.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A composition comprising a corrosion inhibitor-containing a metal organic framework (MOF), wherein:
the MOF comprises a plurality of metal ions or a plurality of metal clusters,
the metal ions or the metal clusters are coordinated to one or more organic ligands to form one or more one-, two- or three-dimensional networks,
the one or more organic ligands are selected from the group consisting of aryl, heteroaryl, heterocyclic compounds, and combinations thereof, and
each of the aryl, heteroaryl, or heterocyclic compounds comprises at least one exocyclic sulphur group, and a ratio of organic ligand:metal is 2:1 or greater with respect to the organic ligand.

2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises a film-forming organic polymer.

3. The composition of claim 2 , wherein the composition is a powder coating composition.

4. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the metal ions or metal clusters of the MOF are independently selected from the group consisting of a rare earth metal, a transition metal, and combinations thereof.

5. The composition of claim 4 , wherein the rare earth metal or transition metal is selected from the group consisting of Zn, Pr, Ce, and combinations thereof.

6. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the one or more organic ligands are independently selected from the group consisting of a 5- or 6-membered mono or bicyclic aryl, heteroaryl, or heterocyclic compound comprising at least one exocyclic sulphur group selected from a thiol or thione.

7. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the one or more organic ligands comprising at least one exocyclic sulphur group are independently a compound of Formula 1:

wherein
A is a 5- or 6-membered aryl, heteroaryl, or heterocyclic ring, which is optionally fused with one or more aryl or heteroaryl rings, wherein the dotted line represents an optional double bond;
X 1 is selected from the group consisting of N, NR 1 , O, S, CR 2 , and CR 3 R 4 ;
X 2 is selected from the group consisting of N, NR 5 , O, S, CR 6 , and CR 7 R 8 ;
X 3 is selected from the group consisting of N, NR 9 , CR 10 , and CR 11 R 12 ;
R 1 , R 5 and R 9 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, amino, C 1 -C 10 alkyl, C 2 -C 10 alkenyl, C 2 -C 10 alkynyl, aryl and heteroaryl; and
R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 6 , R 7 , R 8 , R 10 , R 11 and R 12 are each independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halo, amino, thiol, thione, C 1 -C 10 alkyl, C 2 -C 10 alkenyl, C 2 -C 10 alkynyl, aryl, and heteroaryl, wherein each amino, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, or heteroaryl group may be optionally substituted.

8. The composition of claim 7 , wherein X 1 is selected from the group consisting of N, NH, and S.

9. The composition of claim 7 , wherein X 3 is selected from the group consisting of N and CR 10 .

10. The composition of claim 9 , wherein R 10 is selected from the group consisting of thiol and thione.

11. The composition of claim 7 , wherein X 1 is N, X 2 is N, and X 3 is C—SH.

12. The composition of claim 7 , wherein the MOF is a solid particle.

13. The composition of claim 12 , wherein the solid particle has an average diameter of 20 nm to 50 μm.

14. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising one or more additives comprising one or more pigments, fillers, and extenders.

15. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is substantially free of any additives that are pigments.

16. A process for preparing a composition comprising:
forming a composition by admixing a film-forming organic polymer and a corrosion inhibitor-containing metal organic framework (MOF),
wherein the MOF comprises a plurality of metal ions or a plurality of metal clusters coordinated to one or more organic ligands to form a one-, two- or three-dimensional network, and wherein the one or more organic ligands are independently selected from the group consisting of aryl, heteroaryl or heterocyclic compounds, wherein the aryl, heteroaryl or heterocyclic compound(s) comprise at least one exocyclic sulphur group.

17. A coated substrate comprising:
a substrate coated with a corrosion inhibiting composition comprising a corrosion inhibitor-containing metal organic framework (MOF),
wherein the MOF comprises a plurality of metal ions or a plurality of metal clusters each coordinated to one or more organic ligands to form a one-, two- or three dimensional network, and wherein the one or more organic ligands are independently selected from the group consisting of aryl, heteroaryl, or heterocyclic compounds, wherein the aryl, heteroaryl, or heterocyclic compound(s) comprise at least one exocyclic sulphur group, and a ratio of organic ligand:metal is 2:1 or greater.

18. The coated substrate of claim 17 , wherein the corrosion inhibiting composition is disposed directly as a coating to the surface of the substrate.

19. The coated substrate of claim 17 , wherein the substrate is a metal alloy and the corrosion inhibiting composition comprises a film-forming organic polymer.

20. The coated substrate of claim 17 , wherein:
the corrosion inhibiting composition is disposed directly as a coating to the surface of the substrate,
the substrate is a metal alloy, and
the corrosion inhibiting composition comprises a film-forming organic polymer.
