ELECTROCHEMICAL STUDY OF THE CORROSION BEHAVIOR OF MILD STEEL WITH ZINC COMPLEX OF 1-(8-hydroxy quinolin-2yl-methyl) THIOUREA AS INHIBITOR IN SODIUM CHLORIDE SOLUTION

Key Points

• Corrosion behavior of mild steel is significantly influenced by the zinc complex inhibitor.
• Electrochemical tests showed a notable reduction in corrosion rates with the inhibitor present in sodium chloride solution.
• Assessment utilized various electrochemical techniques to measure corrosion metrics in controlled conditions.
• These findings suggest that using the zinc complex could enhance the durability of mild steel in corrosive environments.
