Piper nigrum has extensively explored for its biological properties and its bioactive phyto-compounds. The corrosion prevention of mild steel by Piper nigrum extract (black pepper) using 1.5 M nitric acid medium was examined by the weight-loss method, scanning electron microscope (SEM) examination. The consequences of the study reveal that the dissimilar concentrations of extract prevent mild steel corrosion in acidic medium. The Inhibition efficiency of the extract is found to vary with concentration, temperature, and time of immersion. The inhibition efficiency of the extract was directly proportional to the concentration but inversely proportional to the temperature. Scanning electron microscope experiments exhibit the adsorption of the inhibitory properties of black pepper extract on the surface of the mild steel and show the evidence for the protection of Mild steel by the eco-friendly inhibitor. FTIR values also show evidence for the inhibition of Mild Steel.

Mass loss and Scanning Electron Microscope method (SEM) have been used to study the corrosion inhibition efficiency on mild steel and aluminium using synthesized inhibitors i.e. N-Benzylidene aniline (CI1) and N-Benzylidene 4-methylaniline (CI2) in Trichloroacetic acid (TCAA). Study reveals that both mild steel and aluminium are prone to corrosion in organic acid like TCAA. Out of these two metals, aluminium is more vigorously corroded by the TCAA in comparison to mild steel in same conditions and synthesized inhibitors CI1 and CI2 are almost same effective for mild steel and aluminium.

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.

The inhibition efficiency (IE) of an aqueous extract ofPiper NigrumL. in controlling corrosion of mild steel at pH 12 has been evaluated by weight loss method in the absence and presence of inhibitor in citric acid medium at different concentration. The result showed that the corrosion inhibition efficiency of these compounds was found to vary with the different concentration at two hour time interval at room temperature. Also, it was found that the corrosion inhibition behaviour ofPiper NigrumL. is greater in 2 N Citric acid than 1 N Citric acid medium. SoPiper NigrumL. can be used has a good inhibitor for preventing mild steel material which is used in many construction purpose.

This papper is about the use of biopolymer of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as a coat of different fertilizer granules (Azafoska 16:16:16 and Yara Kristalon 19:19:19) as a core material in presence of nitric acid. The biodegradable polymer layer provides uniform diffusion of minerals into the soil as the PVA shell decays. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Energy – Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX - 3600) were carried out for the characterization of bio-modified materials. The agrochemical changes of the soil in terms of macro-and microelements were also determined.

Abstract The electrochemical and chemical reduction of α-and β-lead dioxide synthesis anodes in sulfuric or nitric acid, resp., are investigated. The processes are elucidated by scanning electron microscope pictures. For the reduction of lead dioxide to lead sulfate a solution-precipitation mechanism is confirmed. This result fits very well with present day battery research. Reduction as well as re-oxidation result in an enlargement of active surface. Therefore temporary reduction has a decisive influence on the potential characteristics of lead dioxide anodes. Conclusions are given for their application in electrochemical syntheses.

Acrylate/carbon nanotubes nanocomposites were prepared using sol-gel method. Carbon nanotubes with different percentage (0.2%, 0.4%, 0.6%, 0.8% and 1.0%) incorporated into acrylate and deposited on mild steel. Surface of acrylate/carbon nanotubes composites were characterized using by field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). Carbon nanotubes uniformly distributed in acrylate observed by FESEM shows increase in percentage of carbon nanotubes blend with acrylate the peak distribution become decreases.

The Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) has been used to study the adhesion of red oxide primer on selected substrates. The substrates are stainless steel, mild steel, galvanized steel and aluminium. Twenty (20 No) specimens were prepared from the four different substrate metals and examined metallographically, after coating them with red oxide primer using different methods of application. Results showed varying degrees of adherence. The red oxide primer was able to form bonds with the different substrate metals, especially with the well cleaned, primed and subsequently painted stainless steel specimen.

The synthesis of compounds was carring out in the system of gadolinium chromite - ferrites doped with bismuth. The citrate-nitrate method was chosen as the synthesis method. An X-ray phase analysis was performed to study the formation of new phases. Based on the results of x-ray phase analysis, it was determined that the obtained compounds in the chromiteferrite system are crystallized in orthorhombic syngony with the Pbnm(62) spatial group. It is showing that when nitric acid is using as a precipitator, can be obtaining single-phase powders. In addition, the structure and parameters of elementary cells of synthesized chromite - ferrites were determining by x-ray phase analysis. The shapes and sizes of the resulting manganite powders determined by electron microscopy. According to the results of the scanning electron microscope, the powders of synthesized chromite-ferrites consist of crystals from 184.3 nm to 3.02 microns.
