Inhibitive action of Bridelia retusa leaves extract on corrosion of mild steel in acidic media

CORROSION INHIBITIVE PROPERTIES OF EXTRACT OF JATROPHA CURCAS LEAVES ON MILD STEEL IN HYDROCHLORIC ACID ENVIRONMENT

Jatropha curcas leaves extract was tested as a green corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in aqueous hydrochloric acid solution using gravimetric and thermometric techniques. The results reveal that the inhibition efficiency vary with concentration of the leaf extract and the time of immersion. Maximum inhibition efficiency was found to be 95.92% in 2M HCl with 0.5 g/l concentration of the extrac...

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

Corrosive Inhibitive Effect of Pyrazole Compounds towards the Corrosion of Mild Steel in Acidic Medium

The inhibitive effect of compound (1-acetyl-4, 5-dihydro-5-Bromophenyl-3-(thiophen-2yl) pyrazoles) on mild steel in 1M H2SO4 and 1M HCl was investigated by weight loss, Potentiodynamic polarization and electro chemical impidence studies. The synthesized compound of 1-acetyl-4, 5-dihydro-5-Bromophenyl-3-(thiophen-2yl) pyrazoles was characterized by FTIR, H NMR, C NMR and mass. The purity of the ...

Experimental and Theoretical Investigation of Corrosion Inhibitive Potentials of (E)-4-hydroxy-3-[(2,4,6-tribromophenyl)diazenyl]benzaldehyde on Mild Steel in Acidic Media

Corrosion of metal surfaces amongst other problems is one major disaster militating against proper functioning of the oil and gas and other manufacturing industries. To therefore lessen the risk, organic corrosion inhibitors have been applied to lessen the rate of corrosion and its effects. However, materials with optimal properties, better than content that allow corrosion are used for this em...

Antihelmintic Activity of Stem Bark Extract of Bridelia Retusa Spreng

The present study was undertaken to investigate antichelmintic activity of petroleum ether, chloroform, ethanol and aqueous extract of the stem bark of Bridelia retusa S. on adult African night crawlers (Eudrilus euginae) earthworms due to its anatomical and physiological similarity with the intestinal roundworm parasites of human being. Antihelmintic activity was investigated at 50 mg/ml for a...
