The influence of the acid extract of peel of Cucurbita maxima (PCM) on the corrosion of mild steel in 1N H2SO4 was investigated by weight loss, polarization and impedance methods and SEM analysis. The inhibition efficiency increases with extract concentration and immersion period. Weight loss and corrosion rates of mild steel decreased as the concentration of inhibitor increased. The results sh...

nano films consisting of an alternating sequence of positively and negatively charged polyelectrolytes have been prepared by means of the electrostatic layer-by-layer (lbl) sequential assembly technique on treated and untreated mild steel wires. inhibitor was encapsulated between cationic and anionic polyelectrolyte nano films. this paper mainly focuses on the effect of these nano-films of poly...

A method for the detection of in situ corrosion monitoring due to atmospheric gasses has been incorporated to measure not only the amount of corrosion on a copper surface but also the rate of corrosion and a study on the bonding of the adsorbent at the gas solid interface. The Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM) has recently been used for this corrosion monitoring. Results indicate a difference i...

LI, CHONG, Ph.D., June 2009, Chemical Engineering Effect of Corrosion Inhibitor on Water Wetting and Carbon Dioxide Corrosion In Oil-Water Two-Phase Flow (198 pp.) Director of Dissertation: Srdjan Nesic The internal corrosion of flowlines and pipelines made from carbon steel is encountered in the oil and gas industry. The corrosion process is primarily associated with the presence of free water...

The inhibitive effect of congo red was examined as corrosion inhibitor for the corrosion of zinc in 1N HCl by conventional weight loss and gasometric methods. Results obtained show that congo red exhibited high inhibition efficiencies. The inhibition efficiency was found to increase with increase in the inhibitor concentration. The adsorption of the inhibitor molecules on the zinc metal surface...

in this work, electrochemical methods such as tafel polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis) were used to study the inhibition efficiency of nettle leaves hydroalcoholic extract as a green corrosion inhibitor of api 5l carbon steel in 0.5 m h2so4 solution. the results showed that the inhibition efficiency was increased with increasing the concentration of the extract and th...

in this paper, the effect of penicillin g drug as a green corrosion inhibitor on mild steel in 1.0 mhydrochloric acid solution has been investigated using potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemicalimpedance spectroscopy (eis) and electrochemical noise (en) techniques. the inhibition efficiencywas found to increase with increasing inhibitor concentration. potentiodynamic polarizationmeasureme...

This study deals with onshore oilfield drilling fluid system to drill corrosion. Corrosion under static and dynamic conditions of the drilling fluid was evaluated. The effect of temperature and pressure on corrosion was examined. Corrosion was more severely affected by temperature compared to pressure. The combined effect of a deoxidizing agent and an inhibitor was observed to exhibit better pr...
