The results obtained showed that corrosion rate was not changed significantly at different rotating speeds and was decreased with increasing ethylene glycol concentration. The effect of nitrite as an inhibitor was studied and high inhibition efficiency was obtained. It was found that surface passivation occurred in the presence of inhibitor. The inhibiting effect of the nitrite was explained on the basis of the competitive adsorption between the inorganic anions and the aggressive CI- ions and the adsorption isotherm basically obeys the Flory-Huggins adsorption isotherm. Thermodynamic parameters for steel corrosion and inhibitor adsorption were determined, which revealed that the adsorption process is spontaneous.展开更多

All electrochemical measurements suggest that this compound is an excellent corrosion inhibitor for mild steel and the inhibition efficiency increases with the increase in inhibitor concentration. The effect of temperature on the corrosion behavior of mild steel with the addition of the Schiff base was studied in the temperature range from 25 °C to 65 °C. It is found that the adsorption of this inhibitor follows the Langmuir adsorption isotherms. The value of activation energy and the thermodynamic parameters such as ΔHads, ΔSads, Kads and ΔGads were calculated by the corrosion currents at different temperatures using the adsorption isotherm. The morphology of mild steel surface in the absence and presence of inhibitor was examined by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) images.展开更多
