Inhibition of corrosion of mild steel in well water by TiO2 nanoparticles and an aqueous extract of May flower

Abstract: Titanium dioxide nanoparticles have been used to control corrosion of mild steel in well water in the absence and presence of an aqueous May flower extract. As the concentration of TiO 2 increases, the inhibition efficiency also increases. 100 ppm of TiO 2 offers 84 % inhibition efficiency. The addition of 10mlof May flower extract enhances the inhibition efficiency to 95 %. Adsorption of TiO 2 on the metal surface follows Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Polarization study reveals that the flower extract-TiO 2 s… Show more

“…It was discovered that all inhibitors reduce corrosion rate to a significant extent which is as a result of adsorption of organic molecules on metallic surface. Mostly N and O of alkaloids are responsible for the adsorption according to [2], [24][25][26][27][28]. The corrosion inhibitors function by complex formation of the molecule with the metal ion, which remains in a solid state.…”

“…Titanium di oxide being a ceramic material at its nano level with tuned physical and chemical properties have been employed widely in self-cleaning [2], UV protection [3], photo catalysis [4], self sterilizing and corrosion inhibition [5]. The reduced size of the titania nano particles have shown a prominent impact on its corrosion resistance [6] and also customized morphological properties through templates enhanced the expected results [7]. Normally the corrosion of steel, brass appliances has been controlled by chromium protective coatings quite successfully.…”

“…There are reports in the literature showing that the immobilization of TiO 2 nanoparticles in Si-based films has demonstrated the potential for degradation of organic pollutants in gas and liquid phase 4 . In the area of biomaterials, SiO 2 -TiO 2 nanostructures have been evaluated as alternatives to make the surface less receptive to biological cultures (bacteriostatic), or more detrimental to them (bactericides), a fact that avoids the inconveniences generated by the growth of biofilms on the implant surfaces 5,6 . There are also applications related to the protection of metal surfaces against corrosion.…”
