Abstract
Data on the protection effect of Citrus Sinensis oil extracts (CS) on mild steel in dilute H2SO4 and HCl solution was studied. The extract sufficiently protected the steel in both acids with respect to its concentration. CS performed more effectively in HCl compared to H2SO4. Inhibition performance of the extract varied significantly with exposure time. The highest inhibition efficiency of 78.47% and 85.61% was attained at the highest extract concentration in both acids. Inhibition efficiency in both acids decreased with respect to exposure time. Standard deviation showed variation of CS inhibition efficiency was significant at low concentration. Data from numerical assessment showed extract concentration is the statistically relevant factor inducing protection of the steel with statistical relevance of 89.9% and 96.39%. Data showed 58% and 86% of inhibition efficiency data in H2SO4 and HCl solution are above 70% inhibition value at margin of error of ±0.097 and ±0.068.
