Abstract The present work was done with dual intentions. primary aim to attenuate the acid corrosion of 6061 aluminum alloy by green approach. While doing so, an attempt made use expiry date pharmaceutical product Streptomycin (SEPT) injection. This unique method could provide best possible pathway for utility otherwise useless, non-eco-friendly drugs. Corrosion inhibition studies were performe...

The anti-corrosion features of 1-dodecyl-3-phenylquinoxalin-2(1H)-one (QO12) for carbon steel CS were evaluated in a 1 M HCl solution using potentiodynamic polarization (PDP), electrochemical impedance (EIS) and UV-visible spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), as well quantum-chemical methods. inhibition performance achieves maximum 95.33% at 0.001 M. PDP study revealed that QO12 ac...

The protective effect of the aqueous extracts of Santolina pectinata (Lag.) aerial parts (Odorized aqueous extract (AE1) and Deodorized aqueous extract (AE2)) on the corrosion of mild steel (MS) in 1M HCl solution were tested by the weight loss (WL) analysis, potentiodynamic polarization (PDP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) methods. The inhibition efficiency (%IE) is highly ra...

The acid corrosion inhibition process of mild steel in 1 M HCl by azelaic acid dihydrazide has been investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization, open circuit potential (OCP) and electrochemical frequency modulation (EFM). Azelaic acid dihydrazide was synthesized, and its chemical structure was elucidated and confirmed using spectroscopic techniq...

This paper aims to investigate the localized corrosion mechanism of Q125 casing steel in residual acid solution with Mannich base type inhibitors during oil reservoir acidizing process. The behavior fresh (20% HCl) and (pH 1.0 pH 3.0 without 3-(4-chlorophenylimino)-1-(piperidine-1-ylmethyl) indolin-2-one (Mannich type, Mb) inhibitor was studied by electrochemical test, weight loss, surface anal...

A theoretical study for three derivatives of pyrazine namely 2-methylpyrazine (MP), 2aminopyrazine (AP) and 2-amino-5-bromopyrazine (ABP), which are recently used as corrosion inhibitors for steel in 1.0 M H2SO4 medium, was undertaken by Density Functional Theory (DFT) at the B3LYP level. Their properties are most relevant to their potential action as corrosion inhibitor and have been calculate...

Turbinaria ornata (TO) extract was tested as green corrosion inhibitor on mild steel (MS) coupons in conc. HCl medium with an efficiency of 100% at 25 g l-1 during 5 min exposure. Antibacterial efficacy performed against 16 S rDNA identified marine biofilming bacteria (MBB) and human pathogenic bacteria (HPB). Maximum inhibition growth was 16 mm on MBB observed in Bacillus megaterium (MBF14 - A...

3-Methyl-1-phenyl-1,5-dihydro-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-4-thione was prepared and used as a key compound for the preparation of some S-acyclic nucleosides of pyrazolo[3,4d]pyrimidine-thiones. Furthermore, the corrosion inhibitions of the prepared compounds towards carbon steel corrosion by 1.0 M hydrochloric acid were evaluated by chemical and electrochemical methods. The effect of inhibitors c...

Corrosion inhibitory effects of new synthesized compound namely 5,5'- ((1Z,1'Z)-(1,4-phenylenebis(methanylylidene))bis(azanylylidene))bis(1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol) (PBB) on mild steel in 1.0 M HCl was investigated at different temperatures using open circuit potential (OCP), potentiodynamic polarization (PDP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Results showed that PBB inhibited m...

The rotating cage apparatus is used in the oil industry as a simple and effective test for corrosion. The apparatus generates a large amount of flow induced corrosion and is used by researchers to design effective corrosion inhibitors. While the apparatus is used frequently, the fluid mechanics of the problem is not well understood. Importantly, there is no correct model for the shear stress pr...
