Abstract: This work deals with the inhibitive characteristics of Moringa oleifera fruits and leaves extracts in Hydrochloric Acid solution and Sodium Hydroxide solution respectively on the corrosion of mild steel. This was carried out using weight loss and polarization techniques. The effects of immersion time, the effect of acid and alkaline concentration on the corrosion behavior of mild steel in 1.0M HCl and 1.0 NaOH with addiction of extracts were deduced. The fruits which were dried and grounded to powder of 10g and the leaves which range from 25cm3 to 100cm3 were used for this study. The corrosion rate was very high in the absence of inhibitors (Moringa oleifera fruits and the leaves extracts). The mild steel was cut into coupon averaging a total surface area of 4.262cm2 . The sample was weighed and immersed into a beaker containing 1.0M NaOH with different volumes of moringa leaves and 1.0M HCl with 10g dried concentrated powdered moringa fruits with coupons removed every 7 days for weight loss measurements till 4 weeks. The corrosion rates were found to be decreased by 83% in 1.0M HCl and 78% in 1.0M NaOH respectively, values of inhibition efficiency (ࣁ (%were calculated from weight loss. The results obtained showed that the Moringa oleifera fruits and leaves extracts could serve as effective inhibitors on the corrosion of mild steel in HCl and NaOH respectively.

The corrosion rate of mild steel behavior exposed to effluents (EF), sea water (SW) and fresh water (FW) were study using weight loss, scanning electron spectroscopy (SEM) and x-rays diffraction (XRD). The results show that the weight loss of mild steel in different water samples increases with increasing in immersion time and temperature respectively. The corrosion rate of water was found to be higher in sea water (0.003g cm2 week-2), effluents (0.021g cm-2 week-2) and fresh water (0.020g cm-2 week-2) respectively. The corrosion rate and behaviour of mild steel in the water sample were affected by some physical and chemical parameters such as pH, turbidity, conductivity and biological oxygen demand (BOD). Effluents (EF) were found to have pH (5.20), turbidity (13.3nut), conductivity (4203µs/cm) and BOD (0.119mg/dm3). Sea water (SW) were found to have pH (7.60), turbidity (173nut), conductivity (30800µs/cm) and BOD (0.028mg/dm3). Fresh water (FW) were found to have pH (7.60), turbidity (127nut), conductivity (419µs/cm) and BOD (0.651mg/dm3). Similarly, the presences of elements such as chloride ion (Cl-), Fe, Ba, Br, S, La, Nb and Mo from XRF confirm that the corrosion rate is higher in sea water. SEM microgram revealed that corrosion rates of EF, SW and FW were of different nature, both the samples have rough surface with various cracks after immersion. This clearly shows that the sea water has the highest corrosion products follow by effluent than fresh water sample. Both the weight loss and corrosion rate increases as the immersion time and temperature increases. Keywords: Corrosion rate, Mild steel, Weight loss, AAS, SEM, XRF, Immersion Time, Temperature

The study reports the corrosion inhibition activity of methanol extract of Aframomum chrysanthum on mild steel in 0.1 M HCl, using gravimetry analysis. The weight loss of the mild steels was observed to increase with increasing immersion time. The inhibition efficiency (%IE) was also observed to have increased with increasing concentrations of the inhibitor but decreases with increasing immersion time. The effect of temperature change on the inhibition efficiency was also studied and it was observed that for every increase in temperature there was a corresponding increase in weight loss and decreased in the %IE. The highest values of %IE; 46.66, 56.66, 60.0, 80.0 & 93.33 was observed at temperature 303 K for 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 & 1.0 g/L respectively. Activation energy (Ea) values and the enthalpy values reviews that the adsorption process followed a physisorption’s mechanism. Change in enthalpy (ΔH) and entropy change (ΔS) of the reaction was positive indicating the endothermic nature and the spontaneity of the reaction. Three adsorption isotherms were tried on the inhibition process and only the Temkin isotherm gave the best fit with R2 value of 0.903, describing the best adsorption mechanism. The adsorption equilibrium constants K­ads were positive, indicating the feasibility of the adsorption of the inhibitor to the metal surface. Gibb’s Free Energy change of adsorption, ΔGads are negative indicating that the adsorption of the extract of Aframomum chrysanthum on mild steel surface is spontaneous. The values of ΔGads shows physisorption mechanism. All confirming that Aframomumm chrysanthum extract is a good corrosion inhibitor on mild steel in 0.1 M HCl.

In this investigation, attempts have been made to study the inhibitive effect of hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) on carbon steel in 10% HCl (mass%) by weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization, EIS, and AFM. Results indicate that inhibition efficiency (IE) of HMTA increases with the increase in pickling immersion time from 10 to 60 min, and IE also increases with the increase in temperature. At higher temperatures (80°C), the IE values are higher and almost independent of pickling time. HMTA can be adsorbed on the surface of metal and reduce the corrosion rate of metal. HMTA is a kind of mixed inhibitor and can retard both the anodic dissolution and cathodic hydrogen evolution reactions independently. IE increases with the concentration of HMTA. Electrochemistry measurement shows that adsorption follows the Langmuir isotherm and the value of free energies of adsorption (ΔG ads ) is < 0, so the adsorption process can occur automatically. AFM analyses show HMTA can affect the surface roughness and protect metal.

The findings revealed that the inhibition efficiency of all pyridinium bromide derivatives converges at the maximum concentration. An increase in inhibitor concentration is associated with a decrease in corrosion rate, an increase in inhibition efficiencies, and an increase in surface degree of coverage. The physisorption effects for (C1, C2, and C3) were revealed by the free energy values of adsorption, which provided useful information for predicting the interaction between the metal surface and organic molecules as corrosion inhibitors.

An aqueous extract of Amomum sabulatum seeds was evaluated for anticorrosive effects on mild steel in the presence of HCl. Weight loss measurements were taken to determine the corrosion rate and inhibition efficiency at various concentrations. With the increasing concentrations of plant extract, the results showed an improvement in inhibition efficiency and a decrease in corrosion rate. In the presence of 1500 ppm concentration of plant extract, it has an inhibition efficiency of 82.08 % at 303 K. The scanning electron microscope was used to examine the surface, which proves that while the extract was there, a protective layer formed on the metal surface.

Purpose The aim of this paper is to appraise the inhibiting potential of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) on the corrosion of mild steel and aluminium in sulphuric and hydrochloric acid solutions. Design/methodology/approach The effects of two different corrodents on the dissolution of mild steel and aluminium were examined. Corrosion rates were determined using the weight loss technique. Inhibition efficiency was estimated by comparing the corrosion rates in absence and presence of the additive. The kinetics and mechanism of HPMC adsorption were investigated by impedance study while the anodic and cathodic partial reactions were studied by polarization measurements. Findings The results reveal that corrosion rate of mild steel and aluminium decreased with addition of HPMC. The corrosion rate and inhibition efficiency were found to depend on the concentration of the inhibitor. The polarization data indicated that the inhibitor was of mixed-type, with predominant effect on the cathodic partial reaction. electrochemical impedance spectroscopy confirms that corrosion inhibition was by adsorption on the metal surface following Freundlich adsorption isotherm via physisorption mechanism. Originality/value Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose has been studied for the first time as an inhibitor of mild steel and aluminium corrosion and the results suggest that the inhibitor could find practical applications in corrosion control in HCl and H2SO4 acid media. The findings are particularly useful, considering the fact that HPMC is a good film former and viscosity enhancer which could also be used in paint formulation.

The Weight loss was employed to investigate the impact of triazole on mild-steel dissolution in 0.5 M HCl solution. The inhibitor’s inhibition efficiency was seen to increase with concentration yielding (81.61%,82.61%,88.29%,91.64%,94.32%) of (T9, T8, T6, T4, T1) at concentration 1×10-4 M HCl, at a temperature of 25°C for 240 min. At a temperature range from 25–45°C, we studied the temperature impact on the corrosion behavior, wherein the results demonstrated decrease in inhibition efficiency with rising in temperature to achieve (61.7%, 52.26%, 63.1%, 72.11%, 75.77 %) of (T9, T8, T6, T4 and T1) at a concentration of 1×10-4 M, at a temperature 45°C for 240 min. A study was also performed regarding the impact of temperature on the corrosion rate in the presence and absence of triazole. The activation energy and Kinetic parameters were calculated and discussed. Polarization curves revealed that the studied inhibitors represent a mixed – type inhibitors. Adsorption of inhibitors was found to obey Langmuir isotherm and was isotherm physisorption type.

The corrosion inhibition characteristics of two medicinal molecules phenylalanine and rutin on mild steel in 1.0M Hydrochloric acid were evaluated using gravimetric method. Corrosion inhibition efficiency of 83.78 and 90.40 % was obtained respectively after seven days. However, phenylalanine showed weak accumulative higher corrosion inhibition efficiency. The presence of both molecules in the corrosive environment reduced the corrosion rate constant and increased the material half-life. Thermodynamic data calculated suggests a spontaneous adsorption of the molecules on the mild steel’s surface.

A multi-purpose instrumented loop in line with an oil producing well is described. The loop has several ports for coupons which were replaced periodically. Some of the coupons were used for electrochemical monitoring in addition to weight loss and visual inspection. Weight loss, pit rate and all the electrochemical methods used gave corrosion rates that were dependent on the positions of the coupons inside the loop. The corrosion rate of the coupons increased from top to bottom. This order reflected the media and flow to which the coupons were exposed in a multi-phase producing well.

A new ionic liquid, N-octyl-2-pyrrolidonium chloride (NOPC), were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors for mild steel (Q235) corrosion in 1 mol/L HCl. The adsorption behavior and corrosion inhibition mechanism of NOPC for mild steel in HCl solution were investigated by using weight loss measurements, electrochemical techniques, and SEM. The inhibition efficiency increases with the increasing concentration of NOPC in 1 mol/L HCl and decreases as the temperature increases. The results indicate that NOPC is able to function as a mixed type inhibitor.
