Inhibition of mild steel corrosion in HCl solution using chitosan

Abstract: The efficiency of chitosan (a naturally occurring polymer) as a corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in 0.1 M HCl was investigated by gravimetric, potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements, scanning electron microscopy, and UV-visible analysis. The polymer was found to inhibit corrosion even at a very low concentration. Inhibition efficiency increases with a rise in temperature up to 96 % at 60 °C and then drops to 93 % at 70 °C, while it slightly increases with an increas… Show more

“…The inhibitive influence of chitosan as a green corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in 0.1 M HCl was studied [26] using gravimetric, potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and UV-visible techniques. The polymer was found to moderately inhibit the corrosion of mild steel in the studied environment even at low concentration and had influence on both the anodic and cathodic reactions.…”

“…Hence, physical adsorption mechanism is mostly proposed for most of the studied polymers studied [16,22,25,31,35]. However, in cases where chemical adsorption mechanism prevails, Umoren et al [26] explain that the inhibitor molecules exist as protonated species in equilibrium with the corresponding neutral species. The cationic and neutral molecules then become adsorb on the positively charged metal surface by displacing water molecules from the metal surface and the sharing of electron between free electrons of the heteroatoms and vacant orbitals of the metal take place.…”

“…Negative values of DG°are widely accepted as ensuring a spontaneous adsorption process and formation of a stable adsorbed layer on the steel surface [17][18][19]. In fact, DG rather than DG°has to be considered as the criterion of spontaneous change under non-standard conditions (at constant temperature and pressure) [20]. However, the easy availability of DG°values explains why they are usually used to get a rough idea of the direction of spontaneous change.…”
