Corrosion Inhibition and Adsorption Characteristics of API 5L X-52 Steel by an Antibiotic Drug in HCl Solution

Fidelis Abeng, Magdalene Ikpi, Kelechi Uwakwe & George Ikpi · International Research Journal of Pure and Applied Chemistry · 2017

The corrosion inhibition potential of an antibiotic drug called moxifloxacin for API 5L X-52 steel in 2 M HCl solution was investigated using experimental (gravimetric and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy) and theoretical approaches. Results obtained from gravimetric and el...
