The protective film was investigated by the Vickers hardness test. WL revealed that 500 ppm SM offered 84 % IE against MS corrosion in 1 M HCl. The inhibitor molecules adsorption onto the metal surface obeyed Langmuir’s adsorption isotherm. The R 2 value was very high (0.998). The PPD study showed that E corr slightly shifted to the anodic side. It was inferred that SM functions as a mixed type of corrosion inhibitor, since the shifts were relatively small. In SM presence, LPR value increased and I corr decreased. Due to the blanket effect (formation of a protective film on the metallic surface, which was found to be a monolayer, blocking anodic and cathodic sites), the electrons transfer from the metal into the solution was blocked. Vickers hardness of the inhibited MS surface was lower than that of the polished one, but higher than that of the corroded one. The outcome of the study may be used in the pickling industry, where HCl is used to remove the rust from the metal surface, simultaneously not attacking it.","PeriodicalId":20334,"journal":{"name":"Portugaliae Electrochimica Acta","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70921712","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}

MLE was subjected to qualitative and quantitative Pc analyses. Thermometric and gravimetric techniques were employed in the corrosion inhibition study. In the thermometric method, reaction numbers for Zn dissolution in blank and inhibited NaOH media were used to determine MLE IE(%). The gravimetric method was carried out using one factor at a time and RSM. CCD of DES was employed in RSM. The analyses of the experimental results revealed that MLE was predominantly made up of flavonoids, alkaloids and tannins (471.7, 458.3 and 115.0 mg/100 g, respectively). Zn by the extract increased with higher inhibitor C, but decreased with a rise in T. A quadratic model adequately described the relationship between IE(%), C, T and time factors. High IE(%) of 83.75% was obtained at an inhibitor C of 1.0 g/L, T of 303 K and IT of 5 h. Hence, MLE is a suitable inhibitor for Zn corrosion in a NaOH medium.","PeriodicalId":20334,"journal":{"name":"Portugaliae Electrochimica Acta","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70922881","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}

However, due to MS poor corrosion resistance, most especially in acidic and alkaline environments, there have been increasing concerns about its use. The use of inhibitors, as proposed by different researchers, mitigates MS CR, thus reducing the economic losses experienced by all chief users of this alloy. In recent years, scientists have focused on green inhibitors obtained from plant, fruit and vegetable extracts, and essential oils. Besides being environmentally friendly, in terms of corrosion resistance, plant extracts are becoming increasingly important, due to their low cost and toxicity, and high availability. Additionally, they are rich in organic compounds with polar atoms, such as O, P, S and N, containing multiple bonds in their molecules, through which they can adsorb onto the metal surface, forming a protective film, by various adsorption isotherms. This paper provides a review on research works done so far on MS corrosion control by naturally occurring plant extracts as corrosion inhibitors, in both acidic and alkaline environments, where this alloy is mainly applied.","PeriodicalId":20334,"journal":{"name":"Portugaliae Electrochimica Acta","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70922599","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}
