This work offers a high-performing, environmentally friendly corrosion inhibitor for carbon steel in 1 M sulfamic acid (H₂NSO₃H). Potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were used to evaluate the anticorrosion properties of Pipper cubeba official extract (P.cubebaOE) for carbon steel in 1 M H₂NSO₃H at 25 to 45 °C. At a temperature of 45 °C, the P.cubebaOE reached a maximum corrosion inhibition efficiency of 96%. P.cubebaOE was also subjected to Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy in order to ascertain its primary chemical composition. Additionally, the behavior of P.cubebaOE in terms of corrosion inhibition on carbon steel was examined at the microscopic level using scanning electron microscopy. The findings demonstrate that P.cubebaOE's adsorption type on carbon steel conforms to the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. Based on the adsorption isotherm model, the free energy was estimated to be approximately -20.0 kJ/mol, suggesting that P.cubebaOE is physically adsorbing on the surface of carbon steel. The results of the density functional theory and molecular dynamics simulations show that P.cubebaOE exhibits excellent inhibition performance on carbon steel in H₂NSO₃H solution and are consistent with the electrochemical experimental results. This work offers significant information on the development of environmentally friendly corrosion inhibitors for carbon steel.

Copper corrosion was suppressed when a lupine extract was immersed in a 2 M sulfamic acid (H₂NSO₃H) solution. Numerous methods, including mass loss (ML), dynamic potential polarization (PL), and electrochemical impedance (EIS), were employed in these experiments, in addition to theoretical computations such as density functional theory (DFT), Fukui function, and Monte Carlo simulations. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to analyze the Cu surface's composition and determine its form. Mass loss (ML) was used to examine the inhibition rate of copper corrosion in sulfamic acid at 25 °C in the presence of lupine extract. After examining how it behaved throughout the adsorption process on copper, it was discovered that it follows the Langmuir isotherm and chemical adsorption. An analysis of the PL curves indicates that the lupine extract is a mixed-type inhibitor. It was shown that the inhibitory efficiency increased to 84.2% with increasing lupine concentration. Additionally, as the data show, the efficiency of inhibitors is diminished by increasing temperatures. Theoretical calculations and experimental data were compared using Monte Carlo simulation (MC) and density functional theory (DFT).

The examination of the inhibitory rates of Piper cubeba official extract (P. cubebaOE) on C-steel in 1.0 M H₂NSO₃H solution is covered in the research article. Utilizing chemical and electrochemical methods in addition to theoretical calculations such as DFT, Fukui function, the study produced results that indicated up to 96.0% inhibition at 300 ppm at 25^oC., P. cubebaOE is an inhibitor of mixed kind. Through increasing concentration, Nquist diagrams showed that the charge transfer resistance elevated and the capacitance of the double layer decreased. It was also discovered that the inhibition process follows the Langmuir isotherm, demonstrating the generation of a monolayer on the surface of the C-steel.

The objective of this research was to explore the impact of corrosion inhibition of some synthetic acrylamide derivatives 2-cyano-N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)acrylamide (ACR-2) and 2-cyano-N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-phenylacrylamide (ACR-3) on copper in 1.0 M nitric acid solution using chemical and electrochemical methods, including mass loss as a chemical method and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization (PP) as electrochemical methods. By Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1HNMR), and mass spectroscopy (MS) methods, the two compounds were verified and characterized. There is evidence that both compounds were effective corrosion inhibitors for copper in 1.0 M nitric acid (HNO₃) solutions, as indicated by the PP curves, which show that these compounds may be considered mixed-type inhibitors. With the two compounds added, the value of the double-layer capacitance was reduced. In the case of 20 × 10⁻⁵ M, they reached maximum efficiencies of 84.5% and 86.1%, respectively. Having studied its behavior during adsorption on copper, it was concluded that it follows chemical adsorption and Langmuir isotherm. The theoretical computations and the experimental findings were compared using density functional theory (DFT) and Monte Carlo simulations (MC).
