Abstract

SUMA, N. D.. Prevention of Mild Steel Corrosion in Potable Water by an Environmentally Friendly Inhibitor. Port. Electrochim. Acta [online]. 2022, vol.40, n.2, pp.99-105.  Epub Apr 30, 2022. ISSN 0872-1904.  https://doi.org/10.4152/pea.2022400204.

Green corrosion inhibitors find various applications in the field of corrosion engineering and technology. In the present work, powder forms of Pimenta Dioica leaves were added into corrosion media to study their effect. Mild steel coupons corrosion studies showed an increase in the inhibitor efficiency, at higher concentrations, in corrosive media. The coupons electrochemical behavior was studied by OCP measurements. P. Dioica inhibition efficiency, adsorbed layers mechanism and mild steel corrosion rate were analyzed using weight loss measurements.

Keywords : Pimenta Dioica; green inhibitor; mild steel; potable water; corrosion study.
