Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to develop an eco-friendly corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in 1 M HCl. Design/methodology/approach – A pharmaceutical drug acetyl G was investigated for its corrosion inhibition efficiency using weight loss method, potentiodynamic polarisation and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Findings – The inhibition efficiency increased with increase in inhibitor concentration. Results from polarisation studies revealed mixed type of inhibition. Impedance studies, scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform spectroscopy confirm the adsorption of inhibitor on the mild steel surface. Research limitations/implications – The drug acetyl G has sulphur and nitrogen atoms which effectively block the corrosion of mild steel and is non-toxic and has good inhibition efficiency. Practical implications – This method provides an excellent, non-toxic and cost-effective material as a corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in acid medium. Originality/value – Application of this drug as a corrosion inhibitor has not been reported yet in the literature. Replacing the organic inhibitors, this green inhibitor shows excellent inhibition efficiency. This is adsorbed excellently on the mild steel surface due to the presence of long chain and hetero atoms. Thus, the drug retards the corrosion reaction.

The inhibition efficiency of acid extract of leaves ofCitrus aurantiifolia[CAL] plant on the corrosion of mild steel in 1 M HCl was investigated by weight loss measurements and electrochemical studies. The corrosion rate of mild steel and the inhibition efficiencies of the extract were calculated. The results obtained show that the extract could serve as an effective inhibitor for the corrosion of mild steel in HCl media. Inhibition was found to increase with increasing concentration of the plant extract. The inhibitive action of plant extract is discussed on the basis of adsorption of stable complex at the mild steel surface. Theoretical fitting of different isotherms, Langmuir, Temkin, Freundlich, Frumkin, Flory-Huggins and the kinetic thermodynamic model, were tested to clarify the nature of adsorption. Polarisation curves revealed that this inhibitor act as a mixed type inhibitor and the inhibition efficiency of up to 97.91% can be obtained. The surface analysis study confirms the corrosion of mild steel and its inhibition by the inhibitor CAL.

In this study, the use of green corrosion inhibitors extracted from coffee husks was investigated on mild steel materials in acidic medium. Phenolic compounds from coffee husks were extracted using acetone solvent, characterised and investigated for their corrosion inhibiting properties. The FTIR and 1H-NMR technique were carried out to characterise the present phenolic compounds extracted from purified coffee husks. The corrosion inhibition efficiency of phenolic compounds from coffee husks extract on mild steel in 1.0 M HCl was evaluated by using weight loss method. The obtained results showed that corrosion rates decreased with the increase of inhibitor concentration, temperature and immersion time. The  optimum inhibition efficiency of 86.5% at 25 ºC was obtained with a concentration of 400 mg/L (400 ppm) of coffee husks extract in two hours of experiment. The observed inhibition efficiency was attributed to the physical adsorption mechanism of phenolic compounds on mild steel surface through charged ion formation from protonation of lone pairs of oxygen in phenol or ionic dissociation of carboxylic acid functional group that formed a charged layer over mild steel surface. Furthermore, it was pointed out that the adsorption process obeyed the Langmuir adsorption  isotherm model at all investigated temperatures between 25 and 40 ºC.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to understand the inhibitor behavior of specific drug against mild steel corrosion and their adsorption mechanism on the surface. Design/methodology/approach Corrosion rates are influenced by the formation of inhibitor aggregates at the mild steel surface. Detail surface characterizations of mild steel have been studied before and after adsorption of drugs in 1N HCl solution. Scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to examine the effect of drug adsorption on steel surface. Findings Scanning electron microscopy analysis suggested that the metal had been protected from aggressive corrosion because of the addition of the inhibitors. Atomic force microscopy visualization confirmed the formation of protective layer on steel surface, resulting in the decrease in surface roughness with corrosion rates. The nature of metal surface has been analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Originality/value The findings of this study will help us to understand the interaction of specific drugs with mild steel surface and their potential inhibition mechanism.

Abstract We report on the preliminary phytochemical screening of the methanolic extract of the aerial parts of Lepidagathis alopecuroides and its evaluation as a potential corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in aerated 1.0 M HCl by weight loss and linear polarization measurements. Weight loss measurements were conducted at 303, 313, 323 and 333 K. The results showed that L. alopecuroides inhibited the corrosion of mild steel in the acid solution with inhibition efficiency increasing with increase in the concentrations of the plant extract but decreased with increase in temperature. Linear polarization plots showed the plant extract to inhibit both the dissolution of the steel at the anode and the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) at the cathode making it a mixed inhibitor. Temkin adsorption isotherms best modeled the adsorption of L. alopecuroides extract on the steel surface. From the values of the evaluated kinetic activation parameters in the study, the mechanism of physisorption is proposed for the adsorption of the plant extract on the steel surface.

Comprehensive Study

In this paper, we provide a comprehensive study of corrosion inhibition of mild steel in 1 M HCl solution at 313, 323, and 333 K using 4,4-Dimethyl oxazolidine-2-thione (DMOT) and its protonated form (DMOTH+ ) as inhibitors. Our results show that the corrosion rate of mild steel in 1 M HCl increases as the temperature increases while it decreases as the DMOT concentration increases. In contrast to the corrosion rate, the DMOT inhibition efficiency decreases with temperature and increases with increasing DMOT concentration. Both experimental and quantum chemical computational results reveal that the adsorption of DMOT and DMOTH+ on the mild steel surface is a mixed-type process having both physisorption and chemisorption. Moreover, the inhibitor adsorption on the mild steel surface was found to obey the Langmuir adsorption isotherm and the value of Gibbs energy of adsorption at the three studied temperatures is associated with an adsorption mechanism involving both physisorption and chemisorption processes. Heavy corrosion, cavities, and pitting of surfaces were observed in the absence of DMOT inhibitor, while much less corrosion was consistently observed in the presence of DMOT inhibitor

In this work, economy novel hydrazine-derived coumarin 4-(6-methylcoumarin)acetohydrazide (MCA) were synthesized, characterized, and tested as an inhibitor for the corrosion of a surface of mild steel in an acidic environment through weight loss and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques. Results showed that the synthesized inhibitor can inhibit the corrosion of mild steel surface in a 1 M hydrochloric acid environment. The corrosion inhibition efficiency of MCA increases with increasing MCA concentration and decreases with increasing temperature. SEM analysis showed the formation of a film as a protective layer from MCA molecules on the surface of mild steel. Adsorption of the MCA molecules on the mild steel surface in the presence of hydrochloric acid environment was obeyed Langmuir isotherm. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations were used to study the relationship between molecular structure and inhibition efficiency and they found in good agreement.
