A comprehensive evaluation of mimosa extract as a corrosion inhibitor on AA6060 alloy in acid rain solution: part I. Electrochemical AC methods

Gerengi, Husnu/0000-0002-9663-4264; Jazdzewska, Agata/0000-0003-4351-8101WOS: 000344397300004The inhibition effect of mimosa extract on the corrosion of AA6060 aluminum alloy in acid rain solution was investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and dynamic electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (DEIS). All the studied electrochemical parameters showed good corrosion inhibitive characteristics with respect to the aluminum alloy in the tested solution. Inhibitor efficiency increased with the concentration and attained 45% at 2750ppm. The advantage of DEIS as a tool for the investigation of corrosion inhibitor influence was discussed.Scientific and Technological Research Council of TurkeyTurkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Arastirma Kurumu (TUBITAK) [TUBITAK-111T651]; Duzce UniversityDuzce UniversityThis work was partially supported by the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK-111T651 coded project) and by the Duzce University Research Fund
