In this study the effect of crystallite size reduction and microstructure on the electrochemical corrosion behavior of nanocrystalline nickel (NC Ni) were investigated using Tafel polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements in 10 wt.% NaOH. NC Ni coatings were produced by direct current electrodeposition using chloride baths in presence and absence of saccharin as...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of inhibition of Marrubium astranicumleaves extract on the corrosion of carbon steel in hydrochloric acid solution by using weightloss and tafel polarization methods. Inhibition was found to increase with increasingconcentration of the leaves extract. The inhibition efficiency of this extract at an optimumconcentration of 100 mg L-1 was 99.9 %...

In this study, nanocomposite coatings based on polyurethane cerium nitrate montmorillonite (MMT) were prepared, applied on carbon steel substrates, and investigated. The nanocomposite coatings were successfully prepared by the effective dispersing of nanoparticles in polyurethane resin by mechanical and sonication processes. The state of dispersion, dissolution, and incorporation were character...

Oxygen reduction on the surface of a rotating disk electrode RDE in 0.5 M H2SO4 is simulated by including mass transfer, adsorption, and charge transfer. A generalized model for the adsorption and reaction of several species is introduced. The oxygen reduction reaction is simulated as a limiting case where oxygen is the only species adsorbed, and oxygen reduction is the only reaction that takes...

The corrosion resistance of a Magnesium alloy is low and needs to be improved. This research aimed at corrosion-resistance improvement by supatterd deposition aluminium film, which is formed on the surface of AZ91 Magnesium-alloy. Corrosion resistance performed polarization curve measurement, was evaluated in quest of the corrosion rate using the Tafel extrapolation method, and conducted surfac...

By means of linear polarization, Tafel polarization and galvanostatic discharge methods, the kinetic properties of MlNi4.3ÿXCoXAl0.7 (X=0.0, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9, 1.1 and 1.3) hydride electrodes, including high rate dischargeability HRD, exchange current density I0, limiting current density IL, the symmetry factor b, and the apparent di€usion coecient of hydrogen in the a phase Da have been stud...

Corrosion results in hazardous and expensive damage to pipelines, vehicles, water and wastewater systems, and even home appliances. One of the most extensively practical methods for protecting metals and alloys against corrosion is to use organic inhibitors. The inhibition capability of 2-Mercaptobenzothiazole (2-MBT) against the corrosion of carbon steel in a 2 M NaCl solution was examined by ...

Inhibitory effect of extracts from three date varieties namely khalt (kha), Lassiane (La) and Tadmamt (Td)), and the mixture of date varieties as environmentally friendly corrosion inhibitor for carbon steel in 1M HCl is studied by means of electrochemical tests such as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and Tafel polarization. It's been obtained that in 1.0 M HCl solution the date e...

Acid extract of Solanum tuberosum was tested as corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in 1 M HCl and H2SO4 media using different techniques: Weight loss (in different temperatures viz., 303, 313 and 323 K), Potentiodynamic polarization, Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) and SEM techniques. The studies reveal that the plant extract act as good inhibitors in both...
