Abstract

The effect of 3,5-dimethylbenzoic acid [1,2,4]triazol derivative (DBTE) on the corrosion of mild steel in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution was evaluated in this study by means of weight loss test, EIS, potentiodynamic polarization, and SEM. The results revealed that DBTE acted as a mixed-type inhibitor without change of the mechanism of hydrogen evolution. The inhibition efficiency increased with the increase in concentration of DBTE, and the adsorption behavior of DBTE on the mild steel surface followed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The thermodynamic parameters reveal that the chemisorption was the dominant adsorption process, and good inhibition performances in the studied range of temperatures were observed.
