Abstract: DL-methionine has been investigated as inhibitor for the corrosion of mild steel in 1.0M hydrochloric acid solution using weight loss method and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analysis. The investigated results showed that the inhibition efficiency increases with the increase in concentration of the inhibitor and decreases with the increase in temperature. SEM analysis indicated that the metal surface was in a better condition in the presence of inhibitor than the specimen exposed in the absence of the inhibitor. DL-methionine acted as a very good inhibitor and is also environmentally friendly, non -toxic, biodegradable and relatively cheap. Keywords: DL-methionine, mild steel, SEM, Corrosion inhibitor.

The inhibition impacts of 1,10-Phenanthroline-5,6-diamine (PTDA) on mild steel in 1 M HCl solution were investigated through weight loss method. The inhibition efficiencies of PTDA increase with increase in PTDA concentration at the temperature 303. Weight loss method indicate that PTDA is an excellent inhibitor the inhibition efficiency of 81.5% at the maximum PTDA concentration of 0.5 g/L at the temperature 303K.

The corrosion inhibitory activity of mild steel in 1M hydrochloric acid solution by Mimosa pudica leaves extract was examined by the weight loss method. The result reveals that the leaves extract performs well as a good eco-inhibitor of the corrosive action of HCl on mild steel. Inhibition efficiency obtained for the extract rises with higher concentration and exposure time but falls with increasing temperature. The mechanism of the adsorption mode of the extract’s molecules fits well with Langmuir adsorption isotherm which suggests that the phytochemical constituents, (tannins, saponins, flavonoids, alkaloids, phenols, and quinones) as qualitatively displayed by the preliminary screening, adsorb onto the metal surface by forming monolayer films. Kinetics study shows that the rate of metal corrosion in the acidic medium is a first-order reaction that is concentration-dependent. Keywords: Mimosa pudica, corrosion inhibition, crude extract, weight loss

The inhibition of mild steel corrosion in hydrochloric acid solution by ciprofloxacin drug as an eco-friendly and commercially available inhibitor was studied at room temperature by weight loss technique. It was found that the test drug has a promising inhibitory action against corrosion of mild steel in the medium investigated. The inhibition efficiency was found to increase with a corresponding increase in the concentration of the inhibitor. It was also found that the adsorption as well as the inhibition process followed a first-order kinetics and obeyed Langmuir’s adsorption isotherm.

Formazan of benzaldehyde (FB) and formazan ofp-dimethyl amino benzaldehyde (FD) were synthesized. These compounds were studied as corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in 1.11 N hydrochloric acid by weight loss method. The result showed that the corrosion inhibition efficiency of these compounds was found to vary with the temperature and acid concentration. Also, it was found that the corrosion inhibition behaviour of FD is greater than that of FB. The kinetic treatment of the results gave first order kinetics. The relative corrosion inhibition efficiency of these compounds has been explained on the basis of structure dependent - electron donor properties of the inhibitors.

The inhibition performance and adsorption behaviour of 4-hydroxy-N′-[(E)-(1H-indole-2-ylmethylidene)] benzohydrazide (HIBH) on mild steel in 1 M HCl solution were tested by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The inhibition efficiency of HIBH increases with increase in inhibitor concentration in the temperature range 30–60°C. Polarisation curves indicate that HIBH is a mixed inhibitor, affecting both cathodic and anodic corrosion currents. The adsorption process of HIBH at the mild steel/hydrochloric acid solution interface obeyed Langmuir adsorption isotherm model and inhibition takes place by mixed adsorption, predominantly chemisorption. The activation and thermodynamic parameters for the corrosion inhibition process were calculated to elaborate the mechanism of corrosion inhibition.

The corrosion inhibition efficiency of a potential polynuclear Schiff base, (s)-2-(anthracene-9 (10H)-ylidene amino)-5-guanidinopentanoic acid (A9Y5GPA), on carbon steel (CS) in 1 M hydrochloric acid solution has been investigated using weight loss measurements, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and potentiodynamic polarization studies. The corrosion inhibition efficiencies of parent amine [(s)-2-amino-5-guanidinopentanoic acid] and parent ketone (anthracene-9 (10H)-one) on carbon steel in 1.0 M hydrochloric acid solution have also been investigated using weight loss studies. The electrochemical and weight loss data established that the inhibition efficiency on CS increases with the increase in the concentration of inhibitor, A9Y5GPA. The adsorption of A9Y5GPA obeys the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Thermodynamic parameters (Kads, ΔGads0) were calculated using the adsorption isotherm. Activation parameters of the corrosion process (Ea, ΔH* and ΔS*) were also calculated from the corrosion rates obtained from temperature studies. Tafel plot analysis revealed that A9Y5GPA acts as a mixed-type inhibitor. A probable inhibition mechanism was also proposed. Surface morphology of the carbon steel specimens in the presence and absence of the inhibitor was evaluated by SEM analysis.
