Inhibition of Acid Corrosion of Mild Steel Using <i>Delonix regia </i>Leaves Extract

Abstract: The inhibition efficacy of aqueous extracts of the leaves ofDelonixregia(DR) in 1 M HCl and 0.5 M H2SO4have been investigated using weight loss, electrochemical and surface probe techniques. DR extract inhibited mild steel corrosion in both acidic environments via adsorption of the extract organic matter on the metal/solution interface. Potentiodynamic polarization results indicate that DR is a mixed type inhibitor in both acidic environments, whereas the impedance results revealed adsorption of the DR species… Show more

“…If the displacement in E corr is above 85 mV we could classify the inhibitor as anodic or cathodic and if the displacement is below 85 mV the inhibitor may be seen as a mixed-mode. 29 The corresponding electrochemical parameters namely, corrosion potential (E corr ) and corrosion current density (I corr ) were generated and their values are presented in Table 6. The maximum displacement in E corr value are less than 85 mV, bitter kola leaf extract behaved as a mixed-mode inhibitor.…”

“…The ability of organic compounds to act as corrosion inhibitors involve the use of heteroatoms like nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur or phosphorus in the molecule for adsorption on the metal surface to form an inert barrier so that active sites on the metal surface are isolated from the aqueous solution [73][74][75][76]. In this way, the rates of anodic and cathodic reactions at the metal-solution interface, at E OCP , are generally impeded.…”
