Green approach to corrosion inhibition of mild steel in hydrochloric acid medium using extract of spirogyra algae
In the present investigation, a fresh water green algae spirogyra is used as an inexpensive and efficient mild steel corrosion inhibitor. The study is carried out in 0.5 M HCl solution using weight loss measurements, scanning electron microscopy–energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffractio...
