This work concern with the electrochemical study related to eucalyptus leaves extract utilized as inhibitor towards mild steel' corrosion in various concentrations of HCl, at a temperature comparable to the average temperature in Iraq, at a temperature of 25°C.Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and electrochemical polarization test methods were used to investigate this. The extract inhibition efficiencies and mild steel corrosion rate were calculated. The results show that the extract may be utilized as one of the effective inhibitors to prevent mild steel corrosion. The maximal efficiency of inhibition has been 99.77% at a concentration of 0.5 molarity, and the inhibition efficiency decreased with the increase in HCl concentration.

Inhibition effect of Costusafer on mild steel in 0.5 M HCl was studied using gravimetric method at room temperature. It was found out that Costusafer inhibited the corrosion of mild steel in the acidic environment and that the efficiency of inhibition increased as the concentration of the inhibitor in the environment increased. The data was used to test different isotherms and it suited the Langmuir isotherm. A value of -15.995 kJmol-1 was gotten for the ∆Goads. This value showed that the extracts of Costusafer inhibited the corrosion process through physiosorption mechanism. The high value of inhibition efficiency of the extract as the concentration increased in rationalized in terms of the increase in herteroatoms, saponnins and tannins which are present in the extract.

A New benzylidene derivative namely benzylidene-5-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine (BPTA), was successfully synthesized and characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and elemental analysis (CHN) techniques. The inhibition efficiency of BPTA on mild steel corrosion in 1.0 N HCl was tested at various temperatures. The methodological work was achieved by gravimetric method complemented with morphological investigation. The concentrations of inhibitor were 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5 mM at the temperatures 303, 313, 323 and 333 K. The BPTA, molecules as become superior corrosion inhibitor with 92% inhibition efficiency of mild steel coupon in the acidic environment. The inhibition efficiency increased with increasing concentrations of BPTA and the excellent efficiency was performed with the 0.5 mM concentration and followed with 0.4 mM. In acidic environment, the 0.5 and 0.4 mM gave the optimum performance with weight loss technique and scanning electron microscopy analysis. On the other hand, the inhibition efficiency decreased with the increase of temperature. Results of BPTA indicated mixed type inhibitor and the adsorption on the mild steels surface obeys the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. It was found that the BPTA performance depend on the concentration and the solution temperature. Quantum chemical calculations have been done to correlate the electronic characteristics of BPTA with the corrosive inhibitive impact. Experimental and theoretical results are in good agreement.

The inhibition efficiency of mild steel corrosion in HCl acidic solution containing various concentrations of mixed inhibitors were evaluated by conducting Tafel polarization and electrochemical impedance studies. The mixed inhibitors used in this present investigation were trisodium citrate and sodium benzoate. In this present investigation 0.01 N to 0.1 N concentrations of HCl was used at 30°C. Sodium benzoate present in the mixed inhibitive system enhanced the inhibition efficiency through chemisorptions. The maximum inhibition efficiency ( 95.4%) was obtained for the mixed inhibitive system containing 0.05 M citrate and 0.5 M benzoate in 0.1 N HCl.

Corrosion control methods, especially the use of inhibitors, have gained monumental importance in the present scenario of expunging corrosion and the quest for eco-friendly reasons continues. To arrive at an inexpensive non-toxic, eco-friendly inhibitor formulations the present study on the use of Staminate Flower extract of Cocos Nucifera has been carried out by the classical weight loss measurements and electrochemical polarization measurements. The acid extract could bring out a maximum of 97.3% inhibition of mild steel corrosion in 1M HCl. Thermodynamic parameters of the corrosion process were calculated from temperature study. The adsorptive behaviour of Staminate Flower extract in acid solution may be approximated both by Langmuir and Temkin type isotherms. The results obtained by Tafel, Linear polarization resistance, and impedance spectroscopy have been correlated with the classical weight loss measurements. Values of Tafel constant ba and bc confirmed that the Staminate Flower extract acts like mixed type inhibitor. Examination of the surface of the metal in the presence of the inhibitor confirmed the deposition of inhibitor on the metal surface. The Staminate Flower extract in HCl medium efficiently inhibits the corrosion and proved to be zero cost inhibitor, eco-friendly, non-toxic, and highly economical.
