Vegetable extracts have become important as an environmentally acceptable, readily available and renewable source for wide range of inhibitors. They are the rich sources of ingredients which have very high inhibition efficiency. The aim of the present work is to study the corrosion inhibition characteristics of aqueous extract of USINHIB (the abbreviation attributed to garlic extract, derived from romanian language, which was used as vegetable inhibitor), which have been studied as an eco-friendly green inhibitor for corrosion control of carbon steel in 0.5 M hydrochloric acid. The inhibitive effect of naturally available vegetable extract USINHIB toward the corrosion of carbon steel in 0.5 M HCl solution has been investigated by electrochemical techniques. Open circuit potential, potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry in presence and absence of vegetable inhibitor were used to provide detailed information about the corrosion of steel surface which occurs in acidic environment. The three electrode electrolytic cell was used. The obtained results showed the increase in the inhibition efficiency.

AbstractPhenylcoumarin glucoside (4-PC) is a compound extracted from the plant Hintona latiflora and was studied as inhibitor for AISI 1018 steel corrosion in 3% NaCl solution using potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques, which may find application as eco-friendly corrosion inhibitors. The 4-PC provides inhibitor properties that protect AISI 1018 low carbon steel against corrosion at low concentrations (5 ppm) obtained by EIS. Polarization studies showed that the inhibitor was of mixed type. The inhibition efficiency by the two electrochemical techniques shows similar results. The inhibitor adsorption was demonstrated to be a combined process (physisorption and chemisorption) according to the Langmuir isotherm.

Eco-friendly biodegradable Rhododendron schlippenbachii (R. schlippenbachii) green inhibitors, R. schlippenbachii methanolic (RSMeOH) extract, which can effectively reduce low carbon steel corrosion rate, were investigated using weight-loss and electrochemical (electrochemical impedance spectroscopy) techniques. The inhibitors exhibited higher efficiency by retarding the corrosion process in 1[Formula: see text]M H2SO4 and the inhibition efficiency is found to be concentration dependent. The reactivity of the predominant phytochemical components of the extract are analyzed. The adsorption of inhibitors on low carbon steel is followed the Langmuir adsorption. The protective inhibitor film formed on the metal surface was confirmed by SEM and AFM techniques.

Purpose Inorganic oxide addition can be synergistically beneficial in organic coatings if it can impart anti-corrosion properties and also act as an additive to enhance physical and/or chemical properties. The aim of this study was to evaluate the anti-corrosion benefits of nano nickel zinc ferrite (NZF) in the polymer film. Design/methodology/approach The time-dependent anti-corrosion ability of NZF (0.12-1.0 per cent w/w NZF/binder), applied on API 5L X-80 carbon steel, was characterized by electrochemical techniques such as open circuit potential, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, linear polarization resistance and potentiodynamic. Characterization of corrosion layer was done by removing coatings after 216 h of immersion in 3.5 per cent w/v NaCl. Optical microscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques were used to characterize the corroded surface. Findings Corrosion measurements confirm the electrochemical activity by metallic cations on the steel surface during corrosion process which results in improvement of anti-corrosion properties of steel. Moreover, surface techniques show compact corrosion layer coatings and presence of different metallic oxide phases for nanocomposite coatings. Originality/value The suggested protection mechanism was explained by the leaching and precipitation of metallic ion on the corroded surface which in turn slowed down the corrosion activity. Furthermore, improvement in barrier properties of rubber-based coatings was confirmed by the enhanced pore resistance. This work indicates that along with a wide range of applications of NZF, anti-corrosion properties can be taken as an addition.

The anti-corrosive properties of sulphadoxine + pyrimethamine (S+P) on the corrosion of pipeline steel in acidic environment were investigated using electrochemical techniques. The results obtained showed an excellent inhibition efficiency which increased with increase in inhibitor concentration. The corrosion inhibition efficiency increased up to 99.04 % at 0.01M S+P and decreased with rise in temperature down to 85.93 % at 333 K and 0.01 M S+P, suggesting a physiosorptive mechanism of adsorption. Also the adsorption data was fitted into Langmuir and Temkin adsorption isotherms, while the inhibitive action was shown to proceed by mixed inhibition mode.

In this study, the effect of the addition of Nd3+ ions as a corrosion inhibitor of the API X70 steel in a medium rich in chlorides was evaluated. The performance of the Nd3+ ions was evaluated by means of electrochemical techniques such as potentiodynamic polarization curves, open circuit potential measurements, linear polarization resistance, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, as well as by means of scanning electron microscopy and EDS measurements. The results showed that Nd3+ ions reduce the corrosion rate of steel at concentrations as low as 0.001 M Nd3+. At higher concentrations, the inhibition efficiency was only slightly affected although the concentration of chloride ions was increased by the addition of the inhibitor. The adsorption of the Nd3+ ions promotes the formation of a protective layer of oxides/hydroxides on the metal surface, thereby reducing the exchange rate of electrons. Nd3+ ions act as a mixed inhibitor with a strong predominant cathodic effect.

The effect of 2-phenyl-3-nitroso-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (PNIP) on the corrosion inhibition of carbon-steel in 0.5 M HCl was studied by weight loss and different electrochemical techniques such as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization. The obtained results showed that PNIP effectively reduces the corrosion rate of carbon steel. Inhibition efficiency (E%) increases with inhibitor concentration to attain 88% at 10-3M. Adsorption of that PNIP on the carbon steel surface in 0.5 M HCl follows the Langmuir isotherm model. E% values obtained from various methods used are in good agreement. SEM characterization of the steel surface is made.

Abstract Maltodextrin (MLD) is introduced as a novel, potent green inhibitor for the corrosion control of zinc in 0.1 sulfamic acid. The corrosion and inhibition studies were done by electrochemical techniques such as potentiodynamic polarisation measurements and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy technique. Conditions were optimised to get maximum inhibition efficiency by varying the concentration of the inhibitor in the temperature range of 303–323 K. Activation and thermodynamic parameters were evaluated and discussed in detail. Suitable mechanism was proposed for corrosion and inhibition process. Surface characterisation was done by SEM, EDX and AFM techniques before and after the addition of inhibitor. The density functional theory calculations were performed and compared with experimental observations. Results indicated that inhibition efficiency increased with the temperature and inhibitor concentration. Maximum inhibition efficiency was found to be 62.3% for the addition of 0.4 g L−1 MLD. Theoretical calculations confirmed the experimental observations.

Inhibition studies of N-cetyl-N,N,N-trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and orthophenylenediamine (OPD) have shown that they were effective inhibitors of corrosion of carbon steel in HCl. The inhibitive behaviour of OPD with CTAB on the corrosion of carbon steel in 1 mol/L HCl was studied by gravimetric weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance measurements. Inhibition efficiency (IE) was found to increase with the increase in concentration of CTAB and it was also found that CTAB was effective only when used above a concentration of 100 mmol/L. Furthermore, the addition of 20 mmol/L of OPD to CTAB slightly increased the IE. The adsorption of these compounds on carbon steel in 1 mol/L HCl obeyed Langmuir's adsorption isotherm. These inhibitors reduced the permeation current. The IE was observed as high for 200 mmol/L of CTAB with 20 mmol/L of OPD in all the techniques studied. Scanning electron microscopy clearly showed that the inhibition was due to a polymolecular film formed by the physical adsorption of the inhibitor on the metal surface.Key words: carbon steel, corrosion, inhibitors, impedance, potentiodynamic polarization.

The inhibitory effect of glycerol on copper corrosion in aerated NaCl (0.5 M) solutions at three pH values (4, 7, and 10) was evaluated. Inhibition efficiency was assessed with conventional electrochemical techniques: open circuit potential, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance analysis. Glycerol reduced the corrosion rate of copper in NaCl solutions. The best inhibition effect (η≈83%) was produced in alkaline (pH 10) chloride media. This effect can be ascribed to increased viscosity and the presence of copper-glycerol complexes.

This work proposes the development of a niobium phosphate coating (PNb) to replace the zinc phosphating, which is very aggressive to the environment and human health. The metallic material utilized was carbon steel (SAE 1010), which was coated with sunbathing - gel containing phosphate and niobium. A traditional zinc phosphate coating was used for comparison of results. The samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), dispersive energy spectroscopy (DES), open circuit potential, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and anodic polarization. The results demonstrated that the samples coated with niobium phosphate have more surface nobility and greater corrosion resistance.
