Abstract EN
The environmental friendly inhibitor system DL-phenylalanine-Zn2+ has been investigated by weight loss method.
A synergistic effect exists between DL-phenylalanine and Zn2+ system.
The formulation consisting of 150 ppm of DL-phenylalanine and 5 ppm of Zn2+ offers good inhibition efficiency of 90%.
Polarization study reveals that this formulation functions as a anodic inhibitor.
AC impedance spectra reveal that a protective film is formed on the metal surface.
The surface morphology has been analysed by SEM and EDAX.
A suitable mechanism of corrosion inhibition is proposed based on the results obtained from weight loss study and electrochemical studies.
