The corrosion inhibition properties of specific concentrations Commiphora myrrha (CM), Cymbopogon nardus (CN) green chemical compounds and their combined admixture (CMCN) on low carbon steel in dilute H2SO4 HCl solution was studied by weight loss analysis. Results show CM performed poorly at (0.5% − 1.25% CM) with optimal value 51.41% compared to CN which effectively all generally above 85%. Pe...

In order to develop novel botanical insecticides, the joint action of Ligusticum chuanxiong oil (LCO) and lemongrass oil (LO) against Aphis citricola van der Goot was determined systematically indoors and outdoors. The chemical profiles of LCO and LO as determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis revealed that the main compounds from LCO were (Z)-ligustilide (44.58%) and...
