The present work reports the application of polyethylene glycol (PEG) cross-linked chitosan (Cht-PEG) as a green corrosion inhibitor. This is the first study reporting the application of Cht-PEG as corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in 1 M sulphamic acid solution. The results of gravimetric measurements, electrochemical study and surface analysis (SEM) are presented in this […]
The inhibitive action of plant leaf extracts, Crataegus oxyacantha (Hawthorn) and Prunus Avium (Sweet Cherry) on the corrosion of mild steel in 0.5 M HCl solution was investigated using open circuit potential-time measurements (OCP), potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. Functional groups of these plants’ leaf extracts and their absorption bands were identified by […]
The adsorption mechanism and inhibitive action of the Eucalyptus plant leaf extract (Eu) on the corrosion of mild steel in 0.5 M H2SO4 and 0.5 M H3PO4 solutions were investigated by potentiodynamic polarization curves measurements and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy technique. Potentiodynamic polarization curves revealed that the Eucalyptus leaf extract acts as a mixed type inhibitor in both […]
In this investigation, attempts have been made to study the corrosion inhibition properties of three new triazepine carboxylate compounds for mild steel in 1.0 M hydrochloric acid medium. The evaluation was carried out using mass loss, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and polarization curves measurement. Impedance diagrams and Bode plots for uninhibited and inhibited systems were analyzed using […]
Inhibition action of seroquel on corrosion of zinc in 0.1 M HCl solution was investigated using weight loss, electrochemical potentiodynamic polarization and impedance spectroscopic techniques. Corrosion inhibition efficiency showed the positive effect with increase in concentration of inhibitor and with the increase in temperature. Results obtained from all the methods are in good agreement with […]
