The inhibition of mild steel corrosion in acidic medium by 1-methyl-3-pyridin-2-yl-thiourea
The effect of 1-methyl-3-pyridin-2-yl-thiourea on the corrosion resistance of mild steel in H 2SO 4 solution was investigated by different techniques. The results show that the inhibition efficiency increases with the increase of inhibitor concentration. This compound affects both the anodic dissolu...
