Lawsonia inermis also known as henna was studied as a corrosion inhibitor for aluminum alloy in seawater. The inhibitor has been characterized by optical study via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The FTIR proves the existence of hydroxyl and carbonyl functional groups in Lawsonia inermis. Aluminum alloy 5083 immersed in seawater in the absence and presence of Lawsonia inermis was tested using electrochemistry method, namely, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization (PP). EIS and PP measurements suggest that the addition of Lawsonia inermis has caused the adsorption of inhibitor on the aluminum surface. The adsorption behavior of the inhibitor follow Langmuir adsorption model where the value of free energy of adsorption, -ΔG, is less than 40 kJ/mol indicates that it is a physical adsorption. Finally, it was inferred that Lawsonia inermis has a real potential to act as a corrosion inhibitor for aluminum alloy in seawater.

Cefuroxime axetil (CA) a pro-drug was tested as corrosion inhibitor for aluminum in hydrochloric acid solution using thermometric, gasometric weight loss and scanning electron microscope (SEM) techniques. Results obtained showed that this compound has good inhibiting properties for aluminum corrosion in acidic medium, with inhibition efficiencies values reaching 89.87 % at 0.5 g / L. It was also found out that the results from weight loss method are highly consistent with those obtained by hydrogen evolution method and gasometric method; and all indicate that inhibitor efficiency increases with increasing inhibitor concentration. Cefuroxime axetil inhibited the corrosion of aluminum in solutions of HCl through the mechanism of physiosorption as confirmed by values of activation energy and free energy of adsorption. The adsorption of the inhibitor was also found to be spontaneous, exothermic and best fitted the Langmuir adsorption model. SEM analysis confirmed the existence of an absorbed protective film on the aluminum surface.

The extract of Justicia secunda (JS) leaves was investigated as an eco‐friendly corrosion inhibitor of aluminum in 0.5 M HCl using weight loss, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization (PDP), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques. The inhibitor concentrations used ranged from 50 to 250 ppm at 30, 40, and 50oC. Results show that Justicia secunda acts as a good inhibitor for aluminum. Its efficiency increased with increasing inhibitor concentration but decreased with increasing temperature. Maximum inhibition efficiency as high as 94.3% was found at 30°C for 250 ppm of the inhibitor with the weight loss technique. Tafel polarization results show that the extract acts as a mixed-type inhibitor. The Nyquist plots indicated decreasing double-layer capacitance and increasing charge transfer resistance on increasing JS concentration. The inhibition action occurred through the physical adsorption of the extract on the aluminum surface. The adsorption process was found to follow Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The formation of a protective film on the metal surface was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy.

El estudio de la resistencia a la corrosión del anodizado de una aleación de aluminio (AA6063) en ácido sulfúrico a diferentes tiempos de anodizado: 30, 45 y 60 min. se realizó usando la espectroscopia de impedancia electroquímica (EIE) y el ensayo de niebla salina ácida. (ASTM B287). Los datos obtenidos por EIE y su correlación con los circuitos equivalentes más apropiados permitieron determinar los parámetros asociados a la capa porosa y a la capa barrera del óxido protector formado sobre la superficie del aluminio en estudio. La exposición de las muestras anodizadas durante 250h a una niebla salina ácida permitió observar variaciones en su masa. De los resultados obtenidos por EIE y las pérdidas de masa de las muestras anodizadas se estableció que la película de anodizado de 45 minutos mostró una mayor resistencia a la corrosión en comparación con la obtenida a 60 y 30 min., respectivamente. Palabras clave.- Aluminio, Anodizado, Impedancia electroquímica, Niebla salina ácida. ABSTRACTThe study of the corrosion resistance of anodized on aluminum alloy (AA6063) in sulfuric acid to different times: 30, 45 and 60 min. was performed using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and the acid salt spray test (ASTM B287). The EIS’data and its correlation with the most appropriate equivalent circuits allowed to determine the parameters associated with the porous layer and the oxide layer protective barrier formed on the aluminum surface under study. Exposure of the samples anodized for a 250h salt spray acid allowed to observe changes in their mass. From the results obtained by EIS and the mass losses of the anodized samples was established that the anodized film of 45 minutes showed higher corrosion resistance compared to that obtained at 60 and 30 min, respectively. Keywords.- Aluminum, Anodized, Electrochemical impedance, Acid salt spray.

The extract of Fucus spiralis (FS) was tested as a corrosion inhibitor of carbon steel in a 1M HCl medium. The anti-corrosion properties were analyzed by gravimetric and electrochemical techniques such as potentiodynamic polarization (PDP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The surface characterization of carbon steel submerged in the optimal solution was carried out using UV-Visible, UV-Vis-NIR, and Optical microscopy analyses. Electrochemical and gravimetric results demonstrated that inhibitory efficiencies increase with increasing inhibitor concentration and the efficiency reaches 87% at a concentration of 0.5 g/L. According to Tafel extrapolated polarisation measurements, the FS also worked as a mixed-type corrosion inhibitor and changed the mechanism of anodic reactions. EIS analysis showed that a depressed capacitive loop dominates the Nyquist plot of impedance and enhances the polarization resistance (Rp) to 161.9 Ω cm2 with a reduction of the double layer capacity (Cdl) of carbon steel to 61.8 μF/cm2. This protection is assured by an adsorption mechanism based on the isothermal Langmuir adsorption model, which positively affects the thermodynamic parameters. UV-Visible, UV-Vis-NIR analyses exhibited that inhibitor decreases the iron oxides like hematite, Magnetite, and Goethite, Maghemite, Lepidocrocite, δ-FeOOH of the metal surface and delays the dissolution of the bare metal of iron to the ferrous ions, notably that optical morphology showed that FS extract decreases the aggressivity of HCl.

Two N-substituted thiosemicarbazone derivatives namely as 2-(4-chlorobenzylidene)-N-phenylhydrazinecarbothioamide and 2-benzylidene-N-phenylhydrazinecarbothioamide (L1 and L2, respectively) have been tested as corrosion inhibitors on mild steel in 1 M HCl. The ligands were synthesized and investigated using potentiodynamic polarization (PD) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS).  The obtained results indicated that inhibition efficiency, (IE, %) L1 increased with increasing inhibitor concentrations which behaved as a good corrosion inhibitor compared to L2. The synthesized ligands were successfully characterized by melting point, elemental analysis (C, H, N, and S), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and NMR (1H and 13C) spectroscopy. The excellent inhibition effectiveness for both compounds on mild steel before and after immersion in 1 M HCl solution containing 40 ppm of L1 and L2 were also verified by scanning electron microscope (SEM). Based on potentiodynamic polarization results, it can be concluded that all investigated compounds are mixed-type inhibitors and obey the Langmuir adsorption isotherm.

In this paper, a novel method combining electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and phase shift was used to systematically study the effect of corrosion inhibitor (sodium succinate, sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate, and new corrosion inhibitor, namely, bis [2-amino-3-(dodecyl dimethyl quaternary ammonium) propyl]-propylamine dichloro) on crack initiation and propagation of aluminum alloy during the slow strain rate tensile process. Using a variety of characterization methods to verify the feasibility of using the new method for in-situ prediction, Kramers–Kronig transformations have been used to validate the experimental data obtained with the EIS measurements. The corrosion inhibition mechanism of these three kinds of inhibitors in the SSRT process was analyzed.

Abstract Aizoon extract used as anti-corrosion for stainless steel430 (SS430) in 2M hydrochloric acid solution. The mass reduction, electrochemical impedance, and potentiodynamic polarization were carried out to demonstrate the performance of Aizoon extract as corrosion resistance for SS430. Polarization revealed that the Aizoon extract is mixed type inhibitor with superiority to inhibiting the cathodic reaction. The inhibition percentage reaches 93% at 300 ppm extract. Adsorption of the extract on SS430 surface is regular with Langmuir adsorption model. Thermodynamic factors for adsorption and activation processes for SS430 dissolution were estimated and discussed. Furthermore, the SS430 surface is characterized using different techniques. The surface morphology of SS430 was tested utilizing several techniques. The experimental data were supported by the theoretical data.

Laboratory synthesized ethyl (4-(N-(thiazol-2-yl)sulfamoyl)phenyl)carbamate (TSPC), characterized by 1H NMR spectroscopy, was evaluated as corrosion inhibitor of mild steel in 0.1M HCl using electrochemical techniques. Open circuit potential, potentiodynamic polarization and impedance spectroscopy were used to evaluate the inhibition efficiency of (TSPC) at various concentrations. The obtained electrochemical data indicated that (TSPC) acts as moderate corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in acidic media. It is found that the inhibition efficiency increases with the concentration of the inhibitor till 400ppm. The adsorption isotherm involving physisorption of (TSPC) at room temperature and the experimental data complied to the Langmuir adsorption isotherms and the negative values of the Gibb’s free energy of adsorption obtained suggested that inhibitor molecules have been spontaneously adsorbed onto the mild steel surface.

Canthium parviflorum leaf extract (CPLE) was utilized for corrosion prevention against mild steel (MS) in 0.5[Formula: see text]mol[Formula: see text]L[Formula: see text] H2SO4 test medium. Standard corrosion measurement techniques (gravimetric and electrochemical) were employed for this purpose. Gravimetric tests clearly confirmed that the prepared CPLE efficiently performs as corrosion inhibitor. Potentiodynamic polarization measurements (PPM) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements were performed in order to analyze the charge transfer process of CPLE. Polarization curves indicate that CPLE acts through mixed mode inhibition. Impedance study reveals that the CPLE additives enhances the charge transfer resistance values and conversely decreases values of double layer capacitance. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy analysis and Fourier-Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were done to confirm the Fe-CPLE complex formation on MS. The effect of temperature reveals that the inhibition efficiency increases with decrease in temperature and increase in concentration of CPLE (maximum of 4[Formula: see text]mg[Formula: see text]L[Formula: see text]). The adsorption of CPLE shows that it obeys Langmuir’s isotherm model with free energy of adsorption, [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]kJ mol[Formula: see text]. A suitable adsorption model is also proposed.

Corrosion control of metals is about technical, economic, environmental, and aesthetic importance. Synthetic corrosion inhibitors are toxic to environment and human life. Thus, the searches for natural corrosion inhibitors are essential as they are biodegradable and non toxic. The purpose of this study is to investigate the ability ofNephelium lappaceumpeel extract as a corrosion inhibitor of aluminum in 0.1M HCl solutions. Obtained data from gravimetric and thermometric analysis has shown the value of inhibition efficiency (% IE) is proportional to added inhibitor concentration and inversely proportional to the temperature. Occurred inhibition mechanism was in the form of inhibitor adsorption process on aluminum surface that allegedly preceded by physical adsorption. The SEM study also confirmed there were adsorptions of extracted inhibitor molecules onto aluminum surface. Therefore, from the observational results obtained, it can be concluded thatNephelium lappaceumpeel extract was an attractive candidate for the natural corrosion inhibitor.
