Nano-films consisting of an alternating sequence of positively and negatively charged polyelectrolyteshave been prepared by means of the electrostatic layer-by-layer sequential assembly technique on mildsteels. The mild steels were pretreated electrochemically to modify the mild steel surface. The modificationof the mild steel surface resulted in increasing the adhesion of the obtained nano-fil...

The corrosion inhibition of ST37 Carbon Steel in 1.0 M HCl by aquatic extract of coconut has been studied as a possible source of green inhibitor using the potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques. The aquatic extract of coconut have many advantages over classical techniques of sample preparation of plant gums (such as drying and solvent reflux).Pol...

The corrosion inhibition effect of N,N′-bis(n-Hydroxybenzaldehyde)-1,3-Propandiimine on mild steel has been investigated in 1 M HCl using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. A predictive model was presented for Nyquist plots using an artificial neural network. The proposed model predicted the imaginary impedance based on the real part of the impedance as a function of time. The model to...

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...

Susceptibility of mild steel to corrosion attack has restricted its industrial applications, despite its numerous advantageous characteristics. Comparison of the inhibitive tendency of a mixture of zinc gluconate (ZG) and ferrous gluconate (FG) on the corrosion behavior of mild steel in acid and saline media was investigated using electrochemical and weight loss techniques. The FG:ZG ratio was ...

We study copper corrosion inhibition by ethanolamine (ETA)with (0, 0.2 ,0.3,0.4,0.5) vol.% concentrations in 100 ppm NaCl solution. This work is carried out by potentiodynamic measurements and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). The substrates' surface morphologies are examined by Scanning Electron Microscopy (...

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...

α, ω-alkane-bis(n-myristoyloxyethyl-n, n-dimethyl)-diammonium bromide were synthesized and confirmed by ft-ir, ft-raman and 1h-nmr spectroscopy. surface tensions were measured by sigma 70 and conductivity meter ec-470c. critical micelle concentration values were 2.70×10-4∼3.05×10-4 mol/l. the krafft points were measured at 39.1 ~ 43.2℃. their inhibition effects on the corrosion of low carbon st...

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...

In this study, a new mild steel surface pretreatment solution is introduced based on phosphoric acid containing a benzimidazole derivative as inhibitor. In this way, three different benzimidazole derivatives namely benzimidazole BI, 2-methyl benzimidazole 2MBI and 2-aminobenzimidazole 2ABI were studied in the 1M H3PO4 using DC and AC electrochemical techniques. Results revealed the better corro...
