Abstract

Techniques for weight loss, electrochemistry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to investigate the inhibitory impact of Lannea microcarpa leaves extract. The weight loss data showed that the plant extract's ability to suppress corrosion increased with higher concentrations and decreased with higher temperatures and HCl acid concentrations. According to the electrochemical data, the plant extract uses a mixed type mechanism to limit both cathodic and anodic reaction rates. Calculated activation energies were found to be higher in inhibited systems than in uninhibited systems, indicating physisorption, while negative values of ∆G point to a process that is both possible and spontaneous. The inhibitory mechanism was demonstrated by FTIR spectra to be an adsorption process through the functional groups present in the phytochemicals of the plant extract onto the surface of Al metal. SEM surface morphology study demonstrated the protection that the extract provided on the metal surface. Compared to other isotherm models that were examined, the adsorption data were found to be more reliable and suited the Langmuir isotherm well.
