Corrosion inhibition effect of calcium gluconate on mild steel in artificial seawater
The corrosion inhibition effect of non-toxic calcium gluconate at 0.75%, 1.25%, 1.75% and 2.25% concentration on mild steel in artificial seawater (3.5% NaCl) was studied by potentiodynamic polarization, coupon measurement, optical microscopy characterization and open circuit potential measurement. Results obtained showed the inhibiting compound effectively suppressed the corrosion of mild...
