Extract ofFicus exasperataleaves was investigated as corrosion inhibitor of mild steel in 1 N H2SO4using conventional weight loss, electrochemical polarizations, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopic studies. The weight loss results showed that the extract ofFicus exasperatais excellent corrosion inhibitor. Electrochemical polarizations data revealed the mixed mode of inhibition. The results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy shows that the change in the impedance parameters, charge transfer resistance and double layer capacitance, with the change in concentration of the extract is due to the adsorption of active molecules leading to the formation of a protective layer on the surface of mild steel. Scanning electron microscopic studies provided the confirmatory evidence of improved surface condition, due to the adsorption, for the corrosion protection.

Purpose This paper aims to study the inhibition effect of 2-pyridinealdazine on the corrosion of mild steel in an acidic medium. The inhibition effect was studied using weight loss, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and Tafel polarization measurements. Design/methodology/approach Weight loss measurements, potentiodynamic tests, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and spectral and conformational isomers analysis of A (E-PAA) and B (Z-PAA) were performed were investigated. Findings 2-pyridinealdazine (PAA) acts as a good inhibitor for the corrosion of steel in 2.0 M H3PO4. The inhibition efficiency increases with an increase in inhibitor concentration but decreases with an increase in temperature. Originality/value This paper is intended to be added to the family of azines which are highly efficient inhibitors and can be used in the area of corrosion prevention and control.

Purpose The inhibition effect of Foeniculum vulgare seeds’ (FVS) extract on the corrosion of mild steel in acidic medium was studied using weight loss, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and Tafel polarization, as well as the surface morphology of the mild steel. Design/methodology/approach Weight loss measurements, potentiodynamic tests, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy studies and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry and scanning electron microscopy analysis of FVS extract were performed. Findings FVS extract acts as a good inhibitor for the corrosion of mild steel in 1.0 M HCl. The inhibition efficiency increases with the increase in inhibitor concentration but decreases with the increase of temperature. Practical implications FVS extract was observed to play an important role in the corrosion inhibition of mild steel in acidic solution. Originality/value This paper is intended to be added to the family of green inhibitors which are highly efficient inhibitors and can be used in the area of corrosion prevention and control.

The behaviour of a corrosion inhibitor based on proplolis extract via an iron alloy immersed in an electrolyte containing ethylene glycol water in NaCl 0.1 M was evaluated by a stationary technique not destructive which is the technique of electrochemical impedance. The diameter of the Nyquist curves increases with the increase of the concentration of propolis extract and it reaches an optimum concentration at 1.25 g / L, the maximum surface coverage percent at this concentration is 71.98% .The activation parameters reveal that the inhibitor molecules on iron surface are absorbed by physisorption and a chimisorption and obey Langmuir isotherm adsorption. These results were supplemented by Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and (EDX) spectrum of chemical composition. The metal solution interface is simulated as a physical model by using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Keywords: Iron Alloy, Propolis extract, ethylene glycol;, Lamgmuir isotherm, Electrochemical impedance Spectroscopy (EIS).

The experiments were done to find some good corrosion inhibitors for mild steel in 5% HF solution by the method of weight loss and electrochemistry including polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Results show that the thiourea, potassium thiocyanate, and hexamethylenetetramine have good inhibition effect for mild steel in 5% HF solution, especially potassium thiocyanate and thiourea. Their corrosion resistance was greatly enhanced in the presence of tested inhibitor. Thiourea is an anodic type inhibitor and its inhibition efficiencies up to 99.88% can be obtained. Equivalent circuit of the investigated system was suggested.

Brass as an alloy composed mainly of copper is great industrial uses such as heat exchangers and similar other facility due to its good thermal properties. Due to the presence of the considerable ratio of zinc the alloy suffers from zinc dissolution or dezincification. Dezincification rate increases with the increase in the ratio of zinc in the alloy. In this study benzothiazole (BTH) and its substituent’s 2-methylbenzothiazole (MeBTH), 2-aminobenzothiazole (ABTH), 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (MBTH) and 2-phenylbenzothiazole (PhBTH) have been used as corrosion inhibitors for α-brass in stirred 0.1 M HClO4. The methods of investigation include weight loss, Tafel and linear polarizations and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The order of inhibition efficiency (%E) was calculated and the values obtained has indicated the sequence of inhibition efficiency was found to be BTH < MeBTH < ABTH < PhBTH < MBTH. The calculated values of thermodynamic parameters support this order. The inhibitors were found to suppress the corrosion rate by the formation of films which were identified by IR, SEM and EDAX techniques.
