Thermodynamic, adsorption and corrosion inhibitive behaviour of benzyl nicotinate on cold rolled steel in sulphuric acid solution

The inhibition performance of benzyl nicotinate (BN) on corrosion of cold rolled steel (CRS) in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution has been investigated using weight loss, Tafel polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The BN acts as mixed type inhibitor. The thermodynamic parameters indicat...
