%X With the growing oil demand, the need to obtain efficient processes during its extraction and processing has become increasingly important worldwide. When drilling on the high seas began, it was noted that there were some factors that could cause equipment wear. One such wear is seawater, a uniform saline solution consisting of sodium chloride and magnesium dissolved in water. For the oil industry, corrosion in steel is a serious problem, especially in aqueous medium. With that in mind, one of the main methods adopted by the industry is to avoid or decrease the development of corrosion reactions. These inhibitors are usually adsorbed, making a very thin and persistent film, which leads to a decrease in the corrosion rate, due to the slowing down of anodic, cathodic, or both reactions.
