Electrochemical noise investigation of Aloe plant extract as green inhibitor on the corrosion of stainless steel in 1 M H2SO4

The inhibition action of Aloe Vera leaf extract as environmentally friendly inhibitor for the corrosion protection of stainless steel in 1 M H2SO4 solution was studied by electrochemical techniques as well as scanning electron microscope. The results of linear polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy proved the effectiveness of Aloe Vera extract as concentration increased. Corrosion inhibition of Aloe extract was also studied by electrochemical noise (EN). Employing EN, different aspects like transient analysis, noise resistant and characteristic charge were characterized. Moreover, a literature review of Aloe Vera characterization using high-performance liquid chromatography and GC-MS was carried out.
