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...

A mini-flowloop was developed to study CO2 corrosion and corrosion/erosion interactions, and to assess the effectiveness of inhibitors under conditions that simulate multi-phase pipelines. The miniflowloop was used to study the effect of testing time, steel chemistry, velocity, temperature, fluid chemistry, sand and inhibitors on corrosion rates. The measured corrosion rates in inhibited and un...

The corrosion behavior of mild steel (Ck 45) in 3.0 M H3PO4 solution in the absence and presence of penicillin G was studied using potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. The best inhibition effect at 10 mM of drug was a marked characteristic of the inhibitor. It was found that the inhibition efficiency of the inhibitor...

In principle, any method to determine the corrosion rate can be used to test a corrosion inhibitor. The primary criterion for evaluation is the inhibitor efficiency. Inhibitors having sufficiently high efficiency are tested for "side effects," which include environmental compatibility, emulsion formation, viscosity and pour point density. Finally, the inhibitor formulation is tested in the fiel...

Matrix Analysis of Corrosion Inhibition Phenomena (MACIP), in which an inhibitor isconsidered as a point in a multi-dimensional virtual efficiency space, was performed on somepyridine derivatives. The needed molecular parameters such as HOMO and LUMO energylevels, charge densities on hetero atom, dipole moment, heat of formation, and total energyvalues were obtained by means of semi-empirical q...

A corrosion-inhibiting mixture of compounds has been developed for addition to the water used to rinse metal parts that have been cleaned with aqueous solutions in preparation for adhesive bonding of the metals to rubber and rubberlike materials. Prior to the development of this corrosion inhibitor, the parts (made, variously, of D6AC steel and 7075-T73 aluminum) were rinsed by deionized water,...

In this study effect of Stearamide as a corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in hydrochloric acid media was investigated employing various electrochemical techniques include potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and liner polarization resistance (LPR). In view of the fact that Stearamide is an insoluble compound in water, its inhibitive effect was examined by ...

Corrosion inhibition of mild steel was studied using L-Dopa in aqueous hydrochloric acid and sulphuric acid solutions. The corrosion behaviours of the steel specimen in the presence of inhibitor weret studied by galvanostatic polarization and weight loss techniques. The measured electrochemical data indicated good inhibition of corrosion in both the corrosive medium in presence of L-DOPA. The c...

--The inhibition of the corrosion of mild steel in hydrochloric acid solutions by the extract of Artemisia Herba-Alba has been studied using gravimetric and electrochemical measurement. Inhibition was found to increase with increasing concentration of the inhibitor. Values of inhibition efficiency calculated from weight loss and potentiodynamic polarization are in good agreement. This value goe...

The corrosion inhibition and adsorption (CIA) performance of the aqueous extracts of Aaronsohnia pubescens aerial parts (Odorized aqueous extract (OE) and Deodorized aqueous extract (DE)) on the corrosion mild steel (MS) in 1M hydrochloric acid were evaluated. It is based on the weight loss (WL) analysis, kinetic and thermodynamic parameters, and electrochemical methods both stationary (Potenti...
