dc.description.abstractSThe inhibition effect of Heliconia rostrata flower extract (HRFE) on mild steel corrosion- in IM HCl has been studied by conventional mass loss, electrochemical impedance and Potentiodynamic polarization techniques. The inhibition efficiency increased with increase in concentration of plant extract. Potentiodynamic polarization curves showed that HRFE acted as mixed inhibitor in hydrochloric acid. This was supported by the impedance measurements which showed a change in the charge transfer resistance and double layer capacitance indicating adsorption of HRFE on the mild steel surface. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) technique was used to ascertain the inhibitive nature of the examined inhibitor. Overall results obtained were encouraging and hence bring to light a new ecofriendly material for the corrosion inhibition of mild steel in Hydrochloric acid medium.en_US
