Eco-friendly impact of Vernonia amygdalina as corrosion inhibitor on aluminium in acidic media
Corrosion inhibition effect of Vernonia amygdalina extract on aluminium in 0.5 M HCl solution was studied using
gravimetric method at 40 oC temperature. Aluminium coupons of dimension 3x1.5 cm were immersed in test solutions of
uninhibited acid and those containing extract concentrations of 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9 and 1.0 g/L concentration at
intervals of 30 minutes progressively for...
