Corrosion Inhibitive Effects of Orange Juice for Brass in Acidic Medium 5M H₂SO₄

Abstract:

Researchers continue to be concerned about corrosion of materials, which motivates them to start projects to address the harmful impacts of this phenomena that affects the desired function of our materials, especially in industries where acid is used in the process of cleaning machines. The purpose of this study is to reduce the corrosion rate of brass in 5M solution of H₂SO₄ acid using orange juice as inhibitor. The study was conducted using weight loss method. It was observed that for 24 hours the corrosion rate was higher for acid and decreased as the inhibitor was added. In all samples the corrosion rate decreases as the inhibitor were added, however improves over time. For 24 hours the efficiency was higher for acid + 100mil at 14% and it became constant after 48hrs at 32,7%. However, for 72 – 96 hours acid + inhibitor of 60mil there efficiency reported to be 54.3 and 56.4%. Keywords-orange juice, inhibitor, corrosion, acid, efficiency.
