Comparative studies of inhibitive properties of Ficus polita and Ficus platyphylla on corrosion inhibition of mild steel in acidic medium

Abstract: The menace of corrosion of steel in industries has been widely acknowledged. Analysis of oil pipeline failures in oil and gas industries in the Niger Delta area of Nigeria showed corrosion as one of the major causes of failure. Eco-friendly, cheap and renewable materials such as plant extracts have been investigated as alternative to the use of expensive synthetic chemicals which are often hazardous. In this study inhibitive properties of ethanol extracts of Ficus polita and Ficus platyphylla leaves as eco-fri… Show more

“…As depicted in Fig. 12 , various isotherms are investigated using experimental data from EIS, and PDP measurements at 293 K. Temkin adsorption isotherm is found to be the best fit one for Cefx while Freundlich adsorption isotherm fits Cefz well as 73 , 74 . Table 7 shows the computed values of K ads and ΔG o ads for Cefx and Cefz based on the best fitting adsorption isotherms.…”

“…Between the metal surface and the organic molecules, this monolayer formation requires energies above -40 KJ/mol. [7,[22][23][24][25] With equations 3 or 4, it is possible to perform the calculation for different adsorption models; the most used in the literature is the Langmuir model, which is calculated using the following expression:…”
