Adsorption and Thermodynamic Characteristics of Plumeria rubra Plant Extracts on Mild Steel Corrosion in Industrial Water Medium

Corrosion inhibitory action of some plant extracts on the corrosion of mild steel in acidic media

Multipurpose Ornamental Plant Plumeria rubra Linn (Apocynaceae)

Plumeria rubra are commonly grown as ornamental plants in parks and home gardens because of their beautiful fragrant flowers of various color and size. Plumeria rubra is one of the plants which have been used in traditional medicine for many years. The plant is known to possess biological activities viz., antipyretic, antifungal, antiviral, analgesic, anticancer, antioxidative and hypolipidemic...

OXYSTELMA ESCULENTUM Stem Extracts as Corrosion Inhibitor for Mild Steel in Acid Medium

The corrosion inhibitive action of oxystelma esculentum stem on mild steel corrosion in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution was studied using weight loss method, potentiodynamic polarization and EIS measurements. The results obtained indicate that the extracts functioned as good inhibitors in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution. Inhibition efficiency was found to increase with extract concentration. The adsorption of consti...

The results obtained indicate that the extracts functioned as good inhibitors in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution. Inhibition efficiency was found to increase with extract concentration. The ads...

Justicia adhatoda (Vasaka) Leaf Extracts as Eco-friendly Corrosion Inhibitor for Mild Steel in Potable Water

The corrosion inhibition efficiency of the vasaka leaf extract for protecting mild steel in potable water (neutral aqueous medium) was studied by weight loss, Open circuit potential monitoring and potentiometric polarization methods. The inhibition test was performed in potable water rather than deionized water because inhibitors are normally applied in neutral and industrial waters. The extrac...
