Abstract
This study investigates the effects of Avocado oil on mild steel corrosion in 1 M H2SO4 solution using gravimetric method and its requisite analyses. Concentrations of the oil for the acidic environment were varied for their anticorrosion effectiveness study on the metal. Results obtained show the organic inhibitor compound maintained excellent inhibition efficiencies at 5% concentration of the avocado oil, while the lower concentrations of the oil exhibited increasing trends of effectiveness, on the mild steel corrosion. That this result is suggestive of being due to the adsorption reaction of the avocado oil on the surface of the mild steel samples was detailed via the Langmuir adsorption isotherm modelling analyses presented in study.
