This study investigated and compared the acid-free electropolishing of copper with state-of-the-art acidic process. The medium used in this is based on a deep eutectic solvent comprised 2:1 ethylene glycol choline chloride. electrochemical included voltammetry chronoamperometry tests during characterization techniques were atomic force microscopy (AFM) digital microscopy, surface morphology com...

The effect of Mentha spicata L. extract on the corrosion behaviour of carbon steel in 1.0 M HCl solution was investigated using polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and electrochemical noise (EN) techniques. The solution containing 250 ppm of the ethanolic solution of extract showed the highest inhibition efficiency (IE). The effect of temperature on the rate of corrosion ...

Plant extracts are extensively researched as a source of green corrosion inhibitors. Herein, we report on a highly efficient and thermally stable corrosion inhibitor from the stem extract of high-altitude shrub Berberis aristata. The corrosion inhibition efficiency (IE) of the extract was tested in 1.0 M H2SO4 for the corrosion protection of mild steel (MS) by using gravimetric and electrochemi...

A glassy carbon electrode, modified with gold nanoparticles/over-oxidized poly-eriochrome black T film, was fabricated for sensitive determination of As(III) by stripping voltammetry in an acidic medium. The electrode surface properties were characterized cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). d...
