For this purpose, the inhibitory effect of 5-nitro-2-furaldehyde on the corrosion of carbon steel in aqueous solution of 0.1 M NaCl and 0.1 M HCl was investigated. Cyclic voltagrams were taken to determine the electrochemical behavior of carbon steel in non-inhibitory and inhibitory environments. The corrosion rates of carbon steel in the presence of 5-nitro-2-furaldehyde in different concentrations (10, 20, 50 and 100 ppm) were measured by the Tafel Polarization method. As the inhibitor concentration increased, no significant change was detected in the 0.1 M HCl medium. In the 0.1 M NaCl environment, the corrosion potential has shifted to values that are more positive and the corrosion current has been reduced. This indicates that the inhibitors form a film on the surface of metal in this environment and create resistance to corrosion. The best inhibitory activity was achieved with an inhibitor concentration of 100 ppm in 0.1 M NaCl medium. </span> <br /> </p>}, number={2}, publisher={Turkish Chemical Society}
