[ 1 ] - Marine Octocoral Phyllogorgia dilatata: Identification of Sesquiterpenes and Activity as a Natural and Renewable Corrosion Inhibitor

In the context of highly efficient, non-toxic and natural organic corrosion inhibitors, Phyllogorgia dilatata was studied as an anticorrosive for mild steel in acid medium. The marine octocoral crude extract (PDCE) was characterized and analyzed by LC-HRMS, revealing the presence of 16 different organic molecules. The corrosion inhibition was evaluated via weight loss study and electrochemical ...
