Inhibitive Characteristics of Cefalexin Drug Addition on Corrosion Evolution of Mild Steel in Chloride Medium

Abstract:

The inhibition effect of Cefalexin on the corrosion of mild steel in sodium chloride has been examined with the use of weight loss and potentiodynamic polarization methods at ambient temperature. Cefalexin showed good protection ability by adsorbing on the mild steel surface. The mixed inhibition characteristics of Cefalexin were revealed by the Potentiodynamic polarization results. The inhibitor efficiency was found to be above 65% obeying the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm law with correlation regression coefficients of R² = 0.9984 and R² = 0.9488, respectively. The closeness of these R² values to unity established the reliability of Cefalexin as an inhibitor.
