Abstract

The inhibition effect of acid violet 6B (AV6B) on the corrosion of cold rolled steel (CRS) in 1.0–5.0 M HCl solution was studied for the first time by weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) methods. The results show that AV6B is a very good inhibitor in 1.0 M HCl, and the adsorption of AV6B on CRS surface obeys Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Polarization curves reveal that AV6B behaves as a mixed-type inhibitor. EIS spectra exhibit one capacitive loop and confirm the inhibitive ability. Effects of immersion time and acid concentration on inhibition performance were also discussed.
