The corrosion inhibition of aluminium in sulfuric acid solution in the presence of different plant parts, namely, leaves, latex, and fruit was studied using weight loss method and thermometric method. The ethanolic extracts of Calotropis procera and Calotropis gigantea act as an inhibitor in the acid environment. The inhibition efficiency increases with increase in inhibitor concentration. The plant parts inhibit aluminium, and inhibition is attributed, due to the adsorption of the plant part on the surface of aluminium.

The corrosion behavior of copper and carbon steel in 1M concentration of hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sulphuric acid (H2SO4) has been studied. The corrosion inhibition of copper and carbon steel in 1M concentration of hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sulphuric acid (H2SO4) by Ciprofloxacin has been investigated. Specimens were exposed in the acidic media for 7 hours and corrosion rates evaluated by using the weight loss method. The effect of temperature (from 283 ºK to 333 ºK), pH (from 1to 6), inhibitor concentration (10-4 to 10-2) has been studied. It was observed that sulphuric acid environment was most corrosive to the metals because of its oxidizing nature, followed by hydrochloric acid. The rate of metal dissolution increased with increasing exposure time. Corrosion rates of carbon steel in the acidic media found to be higher.

Circulating cooling water plays an important role in industrial water use. In this study, the corrosion inhibition effects of PBTCA, HEDP, and ATMP organic phosphorus inhibitors were investigated using the weight loss method by varying the dosage of inhibitors, ClO2 concentrations, and pH values on carbon steel in recirculating cooling water with a low concentration of ClO2 solution. The results showed that the three corrosion inhibitors had a satisfactory corrosion inhibition effect and that corrosion inhibition efficiency is positively correlated with the concentration of organic phosphorus inhibitors and pH. The average corrosion inhibition efficiency of the three inhibitors was about 80% at the concentration of inhibitors = 35 mg/L, pH = 9.0, and the concentration of ClO2 = 7.0 mg/L, of which the single-phosphorus molecular corrosion inhibitor proved to be the best inhibitor. When the ClO2 concentration was 7 mg/L, the corrosion inhibition efficiencies of the three corrosion inhibitors were relatively stable. Using the density functional theory (DFT) algorithm in the Gaussian 09 program, the optimization calculation was completed by the B3LYP/6-31G (d, p) method at the microlevel. The molecular structures of the three organic phosphorus inhibitors and the number of phosphorus-containing atoms were compared to the sustained-release properties. Organic phosphorus inhibitors, as an electronic buffer, not only provided electrons but also received electrons. They formed a complex with iron and zinc ions in water in order to attach to the surface of the carbon steel and to alleviate corrosion. In addition, the adsorption with a metal surface followed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm.

AbstractThe corrosion inhibition behavior of an imidazoline derivative, namely, 2-undecyl-N-carboxymethyl-N-hydroxyethyl imidazoline (UHCI) for carbon steel in 4 wt.% citric acid solutions was characterized by weight loss method and electrochemical techniques in conjunction with X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS) technique. The inhibitor has a good anti-corrosion effect on the carbon steel in 4 wt.% citric acid solutions. The inhibition efficiency increases with UHCI concentrations from 0 up to 0.4 wt.%, yet declines a bit at 0.6 wt.% per contra with further augmentation of concentration. The inhibition efficiency declines with the rise of temperature from 20°C to 95°C, while it rises with the extension of soaking time from 2 h to 24 h. Two N1s peaks that appeared in XPS spectra give proof of UHCI inhibitor adsorbed on the carbon steel surface.

PurposeTo investigate the adsorption behaviour and inhibitive effect of Vigna unguiculata (VU) extract (agricultural waste material) for aluminium corrosion in 0.5 M NaOH and H2SO4.Design/methodology/approachThe inhibitive effect of the plant extract was assessed using weight loss method at 30 and 60oC. The trend of inhibition efficiency with temperature was used to propose the mechanism of inhibition and type of adsorption.FindingsVU extract effectively inhibited aluminium corrosion in both alkaline and acidic media. Inhibition efficiency (I %) of the extract increased with increase in concentration of the extract and temperature. Inhibitor adsorption characteristics were approximated by Freunlich and Temkin adsorption isotherms at all the concentrations and temperatures studied. The phenomenon of chemical adsorption is proposed from the activation parameters obtained.Research limitations/implicationsThe mechanistic aspect of the corrosion inhibition can be better understood using electrochemical studies such as polarization and AC impedance spectra.Practical implicationsThe findings may be useful in metal surface anodizing and metal coating.Originality/valueThis paper provides new information on the possible application of VU extract as eco‐friendly inhibitor. It has not been reported elsewhere.

Formazan of benzaldehyde (FB) and formazan ofp-dimethyl amino benzaldehyde (FD) were synthesized. These compounds were studied as corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in 1.11 N hydrochloric acid by weight loss method. The result showed that the corrosion inhibition efficiency of these compounds was found to vary with the temperature and acid concentration. Also, it was found that the corrosion inhibition behaviour of FD is greater than that of FB. The kinetic treatment of the results gave first order kinetics. The relative corrosion inhibition efficiency of these compounds has been explained on the basis of structure dependent - electron donor properties of the inhibitors.

The corrosion inhibition of mild steel in HCl solution in the presence of Ipomoea batatas peel extract (IBPE) at a temperature range of 30°C to 60°C was studied using the chemical weight loss method. The IBPE acts as an inhibitor in the acid environment. The inhibition efficiency (IE) increases with increase in inhibitor concentration but decreases with an increase in temperature and concentration of acid. 93.96%, 89.99% and 85.61% IE were obtained at 6.67 g/L extract in 0.5, 1.5 and 2.5M acid media respectively at temperature of 30°C. 84.86%, 83.99% and 81.13% IE were obtained at 6.67 g/L extract in 0.5, 1.5 and 2.5M acid media respectively at temperature of 40°C. Also 78.92%, 76.21% and 75.73% IE were obtained at 6.67 g/L extract in 0.5, 1.5 and 2.5M acid media respectively at temperature of 50°C, while 71.45%, 69.87% and 66.00% IE were obtained at 6.67g/L extract in 0.5, 1.5 and 2.5M acid media respectively at temperature of 60°C. The inhibitive effect of the IBPE could be attributed to the presence of some compound in the peel which is adsorbed on the surface of the mild steel. The peel extract was found to conform to the Langmuir adsorption isotherm and Freundlich adsorption isotherm at all the concentration levels and temperature studied.

The synergistic effect of halide ions such as KCl, KBr and KI on the corrosion inhibition of mild steel in 1 N sulphuric acid by [Formula: see text]-2,c-6-diphenyl-t-3-methyl piperdin-4-ones with semicarbazone (01[Formula: see text]SC), [Formula: see text]-2,c-6-diphenyl-N-methyl-t-3-ethyl piperdin-4-ones with semicarbazone (02[Formula: see text]SC) and 2,6-diphenyl-t-3-ethyl piperdin-4-one with semicarbazone (03[Formula: see text]SC) has been examined by weight loss method, potentiodynamic polarization measurements and electrochemical AC impedance spectroscopy. Results show that substituted [Formula: see text]-2,c-6-diphenyl piperidin-4-ones with semicarbazone act as the perfect corrosion inhibitors and their inhibition efficiency increases with the addition of halide ions. The inhibitor (01[Formula: see text]SC) shows the inhibition efficiency of 78.28% (0.2[Formula: see text]mM) by using a weight loss method. The influence of I[Formula: see text], Br[Formula: see text] and Cl[Formula: see text] anions raises the inhibition efficiency of the substituted 2,6-diphenyl piperidin-4-ones with semicarbazone due to the synergistic effect. The synergistic effect of halide ions was formed in the following order: KI [Formula: see text] KBr [Formula: see text] KCl.
