The New Organic Molecule-Based Epoxy Resin as an Effective Corrosion Inhibitor for Mild Steel in Sulfuric Acid Medium
The influence of organic molecule based from Epoxy Resin Octa-functional (REO) on the corrosion inhibition of mild steel in the presence of 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 at different temperatures have been studied using polarization, EIS and computational methods. Polarization curves indicate that REO is a mixed i...

EIS measurements show an increase of the transfer resistance with increasing inhibitor concentration. The inhibition efficiency of REO reaching 98% was observed at 10
