Abstract:The role of hydroxyl group in cerium hydroxycinnamate compounds has been studied as an effective corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in 0.6 M chloride solution. The results show that the surfaces of mild steel coupons exposed to solutions containing inhibitors had no signs of corrosion attack due to protective film formation, whereas the surface of mild steel coupons exposed to non-inhibitor containing solutions was severely corroded. Cerium hydroxycinnamate compounds showed as a better inhibitor for AS1020 ste… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
