Abstract

The objective of this work is to assess the inhibitory efficacy of the piroxicam molecule on copper corrosion in a 1M nitric acid medium using the mass loss technique (gravimetry). The inhibition efficiency, represented as IE (%), increases with higher concentrations and temperatures. Various adsorption isotherm models (Langmuir, El-Awady, Freundlich, and Temkin) were employed to describe the interactions between the molecule and metallic copper. The Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm, along with the Adejo-Ekwenchi isotherm, was utilized to identify the types of adsorption. Additionally, the thermodynamic adsorption and activation functions were determined and analyzed.
