Rothmannia longiflora extract as corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in acidic media

Abstract: Background The inhibitive effect of the aqueous extract of Rothmannia longiflora (RL) on the corrosion of mild steel in 1 M HCl and 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 solutions was investigated by weight loss measurement as well as potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements. Result The extract was found to efficiently inhibit the corrosion process in both environments and inhibition efficiency increased with increasing extract concentration as well as rise in temperature. Data from electr… Show more

“…The scan was conducted across the regions to simulate reported electrochemical studies and also the electrochemical studies in our group regarding the anti-corrosion activities of adenosine. 1,[19][20][21] A lower current density (less deviation from 0 A for Fig. 4a) indicates higher resistance.…”

“…In an acidic solution, the corrosion rate is related to the temperature according to the Arrhenius equation, according to which, the logarithm of the corrosion rate (log CR) is a linear function with 1/T [16,18]: (6) where CR is the corrosion rate, Ea is the activation energy (kJ/mol), A is the Arrhenius constant, R is the molar gas constant and T is the absolute temperature (K). The activation energy was determined using the slopes of log CR versus the 1/T graph depicted in Figure 2.…”
