The novelty of this study lies in the use of ketapang leaves powder as corrosion inhibitor which has not been previously investigated, as a sustainable and simpler form of corrosion inhibitor to address the challenge. This inhibition process was carried out by considering the amount of inhibitor and the duration of immersion. The addition of 2 % was applied over 2 days, 4 days, 6 days, and 8 days. The corrosion rate of iron plate was calculated using the mass loss method, and then continued with the calculation of the inhibition efficiency.

The use of ketapang leaves powder gave a corrosion rate of 3.73 mpy and an inhibition efficiency of 84.88 %, the use of concentrated extract gave a corrosion rate of 0.93 mpy and an efficiency of inhibition of 96.22 %, and the use of tannin gave a rate of corrosion of 0.62 mpy and an inhibition efficiency of 97.48 %.

FTIR analysis revealed the appearance of new peaks corresponding to C–H and C–N stretching in TBAC-treated quartz, but not in apatite, indicating TBAC's preferential adsorption on quartz surfaces. XPS analysis further supported FTIR results; a distinct N 1s peak at 401.5 eV was observed on TBAC-treated quartz, while no such peak appeared on apatite, confirming the absence of significant interaction.
