The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of an inhibitor, the Corrosion inhibition
potential of Mild steel using Moringa leaves alcoholic extract , the study was carried out
using the weight loss technique. the results obtained show Moringa leaves alcoholic extract
as potential inhibitors of mild steel corrosion in 0.5 M Sulfuric (H2SO4). An acidic
environment was created to act as a catalyst enhancing the corrosion process. These
experiments were all carried out at temperature 40-50°C. The results obtained showed that
the inhibition efficiency of the extract increases with an increase in the concentration of the
extract. The best optimum efficiency in both cases was obtained from 40ml concentration of
Moringa alcoholic leave extract with inhibition efficiency of 75.19 % . the effects of
inhibitor concentration on the corrosion rate of low steel have been found to increase with
inhibitor concentration at both temperature 40 and 50 °C.
This experimental condition ensured that the catalyst was the only driving force in the
corrosion process. These results obtained here are largely consistent with other studies using
plant extract that show that corrosion inhibition is highest (or most efficient) at the highest
concentration of the extracts in solution.
