Abstract

The effect of Cynodon Dactylon leaf extract on the suppression of mild steel corrosion in 1N Hydrochloric acid solution was examined using the weight loss approach. The effects of weight loss on different inhibitor concentrations were examined on the surface of mild steel. The highest inhibitory efficiency was found to be 83 percent. The influence of corrosion was noted with various doses ranging from 10 to 40 ml of extract. The initial phytochemical screening approach detects flavonoids, steroids, tannins, saponin, alkaloids, proteins, terpenoids, cardiac glycosides, and phenol. The presence of this natural extract reduces the rate of corrosion in acidic environments. The surface assimilation of Cynodon dactylon on metal surface obeyed Langmuir, freundlich, Temkin, and frumkin isotherms. The negative values of ΔGo (Gibb’s free energy) of -16.479 kJmol-1, -0.5201 kJmol-1, -10.052 kJmol-1, and -19.509 kJmol-1 for Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin, and Frumkin isotherms implies the very nature of the spontaneous process
