Corrosion control methods, especially the use of inhibitors, have gained monumental importance in the present scenario of expunging corrosion and the quest for eco-friendly reasons continues. To arrive at an inexpensive non-toxic, eco-friendly inhibitor formulations the present study on the use of Staminate Flower extract of Cocos Nucifera has been carried out by the classical weight loss measurements and electrochemical polarization measurements. The acid extract could bring out a maximum of 97.3% inhibition of mild steel corrosion in 1M HCl. Thermodynamic parameters of the corrosion process were calculated from temperature study. The adsorptive behaviour of Staminate Flower extract in acid solution may be approximated both by Langmuir and Temkin type isotherms. The results obtained by Tafel, Linear polarization resistance, and impedance spectroscopy have been correlated with the classical weight loss measurements. Values of Tafel constant ba and bc confirmed that the Staminate Flower extract acts like mixed type inhibitor. Examination of the surface of the metal in the presence of the inhibitor confirmed the deposition of inhibitor on the metal surface. The Staminate Flower extract in HCl medium efficiently inhibits the corrosion and proved to be zero cost inhibitor, eco-friendly, non-toxic, and highly economical.

Purpose Corrosion inhibitors most commonly are used in the acid pickling, cleaning and etching solutions. Plant extracts as rich and cheap resources are among the eco-friendly inhibitors. This study aims to investigate the inhibition effect of plantain extract on mild steel corrosion. Design/methodology/approach The inhibition influence of plantain extract on mild steel corrosion was investigated through Tafel polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and weight loss techniques in 1 M HCl solution. Furthermore, the sample surface morphology was verified by scanning electron microscopy. Findings The inhibition effect of the plantain extract was increased with the increase in the inhibitor concentration due to its adsorption on the surface of samples. The adsorption mechanism of the plantain extract on mild steel is physical adsorption and follows Langmuir isotherm. Originality/value The results obtained from different methods showed that the plantain extract has good inhibition performance on corrosion mild steel in 1 M HCl solution as a green inhibitor.

This work investigated corrosion inhibition potential of Parkia biglobosa (P. biglobosa) pulp on mild steel in 1.0 M HCl and 0.1M NaOH aqueous solutions at 301 and 321 K, aimed at converting a cellulosic renewable waste into an environmentally friendly answer to the challenge of mild steel corrosion, especially in chemical industries. Weight loss of mild steel coupons over a period of 120 hrs. were measured at varying concentrations (0.0-7.5 g/L) of P. biglobosa pulp. The data did not strictly fit the Langmuir isotherm, having a slope greater than unity and suggesting that adsorbing species from P. biglobosa pulp occupied more than one active site. This was collaborated by the quantum chemical parameters evaluated. Results of the investigations showed that P. biglobosa pulp is a good green inhibitor for mild steel corrosion in both acidic and alkaline media. An optimum dosage of 4.5 g/L resulted to 85.73 % inhibition efficiency () at 301 K while at 321 K, the optimum dosage was 1.0 g/L of the pulp with an inhibition efficiency ≈ 50 % and 55 % in the acidic and alkaline medium respectively. The  values decreased with increase in temperature and were strongly collaborated by values (- 0.86 Lcm-2h-1 at 301 K and - 0.498/0.55 Lcm-2h-1 at 321 K) of order (b) of the reaction. The corrosion reaction showed a large rate constant ( and  in acidic and alkaline medium respectively) at ambient temperature; reflecting the fast nature of the process. Values of the standard free energy of adsorption () were negative for the process both at ambient and elevated temperature indicative of a spontaneous process and stable layer of adsorption. These values were less than – 40 kJmol-1, suggestive of a physisorption mechanism. This was collaborated by higher adsorption activation energy () in presence of the inhibitor than in its absence.
