dc.description.abstractThe inhibition of low-carbon-steel corrosion in 1 M HCl and 0.5 M H2SO4 by extracts of Dacryodis edulis (DE) was investigated using gravimetric and electrochemical techniques. DE extract was found to inhibit the uniform and localized corrosion of carbon steel in the acidic media, affecting both the cathodic and anodic partial reactions. The corrosion process was inhibited by adsorption of the extracted organic mat ter onto the steel surface in a concentration-dependent manner and involved both protonated and molec ular species. Molecular dynamics simulations were performed to illustrate the process of adsorption of some specific components of the extract
