Abstract

The inhibition effect of hexamethylenetetramine (HT) in E10 environment for the corrosion protection of welded API 5L X70 pipeline steel was examined using immersion tests. Welded samples of API-5L X70 steel of dimension 30 mm x 15 mm were immersed into E-10 fuel ethanol containing hexamethylenetetramine concentration of (0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8) g and the control for a minimum of 4 days and a maximum of 28 days. Analysis was done using mass loss, corrosion rate, inhibitor efficiency and ANOVA test. From the mass loss and corrosion rate analysis, it was observed that 0.2g HT, which was the lowest concentration of inhibitor, proved best for inhibiting corrosion at 24 days.
