Inhibition of Corrosion Mild Steel in Acid Media by Trazodone Drug

 The corrosion inhibition of mild steel in acidic media using  Trazodone (Tz) was investigated by using weight loss method .The studies showed the increase in inhibition efficiency and decrease in the corrosion rate by increasing the inhibitor concentration. Adsorption isotherms were tested for their relevance to describe the adsorption behaviour of  Trazodone (Tz) . Langmuir adsorption isotherm  showed that Trazodone (Tz) inhibits through adsorption mechanism. The mechanism of corrosion inhibition is also proposed.
