Abstract

This study investigated the effect of Allium sativum extract on mild steel to show corrosion behavior in acidic medium (1 M HCl) by weight loss and SEM analysis. This test was performed on various temperatures viz 298 K, 313 K and 323 K for determination of corrosion rate. There was increasing inhibition efficiency with increasing concentration of inhibitor. The best inhibition efficiency (76.47%) was achieved at 298 K in the presence of 4 g/L of extract. These finding is also supported by the resistance of mild steel to corrosion in this medium decreased with the increase in austenitic temperature, which is observed from corrosion rate of 31.62 mmpy. Test results obeyed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm with a correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.999. Quantum chemical parameters calculated by Density functional theory (DFT) were correlated with the experimental results.
