Mitigation of Mild Steel Corrosion in Acid by Green Inhibitors: Yeast, Pepper, Garlic, and Coffee

Abstract: Synthesized organic chemicals, used as inhibitors in mitigating the corrosion of huge quantities of steel articles, pose a major threat to the global environmental problems and health hazards. Naturally occurring products which had been used for natural medication purposes, since the human civilization, are found to inhibit corrosion of steel. Electrochemical studies of the effects of black pepper, garlic, yeast, and coffee on acid corrosion of steel have shown that the corrosion current decreases by manyfold … Show more

“…A few natural products such as plant extracts and animal proteins were reported [9] to have been used in pickling acid bath. In the previous investigation by the author [10], corrosion inhibition of carbon steel by few green inhibitors viz. garlic, yeast, pepper, and coffee is studied.…”

“…The Frumkin isotherm 26,27 assumes unit coverage at high inhibitor concentrations and that the electrode surface is inhomogeneous or that the lateral interaction effect is not negligible. In this way, only the active surface of the electrode, on which adsorption occurs, is taken into account.…”

“…The slopes of the isotherms show deviation from the value of unity. This deviation from unity may be due to the interaction among the adsorbed species on the metal surface; that is, the organic molecules having polar atoms or groups get adsorbed on the cathodic and anodic sites of the metal surface by replacing the initially adsorbed water molecule [27]. The standard free energy of adsorption (Δ ∘ ads ) is related to ads by the following relation [28]:…”
