The corrosion rate of the mild steel is increased with increasing the concentrations of HNO3 solution from 0.01 M to 1 M. The uses of 200-2400 ppm of these inhibitors enhanced the corrosion resistance properties of the mild steel in 1 M HNO3 solution. The corrosion resistance property of the mild steel is generally decreased with increasing the concentration of all corrosion inhibitors used here. The most efficient corrosion inhibitor is found to be calcium nitrate and it is followed by zinc sulfate, sodium hexametaphosphate, and borax subsequently. Adsorption of these inorganic salts inhibitors on the mild steel surface obeyed Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Consequently, the corrosion inhibition mechanism of the four inorganic salts for the mild steel corrosion control can be explained based on the formation of the passive film. It is found from the corrosion potential measurement that the cathodic type of corrosion inhibition action was by calcium nitrate, whereas zinc sulfate, sodium hexametaphosphate, and borax are acted as a mixed type of the inhibitors in 1 M HNO3 solution. In summary, all four inorganic inhibitors utilized in the present study can be applied as an environmentally friendly inhibitor to control the corrosion of the mild steel in aggressive HNO3 solutions.","PeriodicalId":16483,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nepal Chemical Society","volume":"1 1","pages":"64-73"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89168460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The absolute methanol extract of six medicinal plants namely; Asparagus racemosus, Bergenia pacumbis, Melia azedarach, Murraya koenigii, Pleurospermum benthamii, and Thymus linearis were examined in-vitro for their sun protective ability by ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry method with the application of Mansur equation.

Elemental analysis showed an exchange of Ca(II) or K (I) from SMW with Al(III) during loading reaction via cation exchange mechanism. Phosphate adsorption is strongly pH-dependent and maximum adsorption occurs at pH around 7-9. The maximum uptake capacity of Al(III)–SMW for phosphate was found to be 3.28 mg/g from the Langmuir isotherm model. The residual concentration of phosphate was sharply decreased by increasing the amount of Al(III)–SMW and reached less than 0.07 mg/L (from 9.7 mg/L) with the use of only 6 g/L of Al(III)–SMW whereas higher than 7 g/L successfully removed 100% of phosphate from water. The adsorbed phosphate was successfully desorbed and the adsorbent was regenerated using dilute alkali solution.

Cr (III) complex of benzylpenicillin was synthesized by the reaction of benzylpenicillin with CrCl3.6H2O. The structure of the complex was confirmed through elemental analysis, electrical conductivity, FT-IR, electronic spectra, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR spectroscopic methods. The physical properties such as solubility, color and melting point were also determined for both the ligand and the complex. The complex has a deep green color. Both the ligand and the complex are ionic (236.0 and 126.0 Sm2.mol-1). From the spectroscopic result, the ligand behaved as a pentadentate ligand coordinating to the metal ion through OH, NH, C=O of amide, carboxylate& β-lactam. A trigonal bipyramidal geometry has been proposed for the metal complex. The prepared complex was evaluated in vitro for its antibacterial activity against some pathogenic gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus substilis, Bacillus cereus, and Enterococcus faecalis) and gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli, Enterobacter cloacae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Campylobacter fetus).
