Cordia Dichotoma as Corrosion Inhibitor for Aluminum Alloy (AA6063) in Hydrochloric Acid
| Resumo: | Aluminum alloy corrosion behavior (AA6063) in a 0.5 M hydrochloric acid (HCl) solution was studied. It has been observed that the ethanolic extract of Cordia dichotoma seeds (EECdS) acts as an excellent inhibitor for AA6063 corrosion in a 0.5 M HCl solution. In this study, conventional weight loss, Fourier transformed infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis techniques were used. It was found that the percentage inhibition efficiency increased with higher CdS concentrations. The thermodynamic and kinetic parameters, along with the equilibrium constant for the adsorption processes, showed that CdS performed well as an inhibitor. CdS adsorption on the alloy followed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm, at all the studied concentrations. FTIR, EIS and SEM investigations also indicated that CdS presence effectively lowered the dissolution currents. |
