Subsequently, the morphology and composition of the corrosion product deposits were determined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Based on weight loss as well as Tafel’s measurements, increasing the sulfide ions content above 0.4 mM, had an inhibition effect on the corrosion behavior of carbon steel. According to EDAX analyses, increasing of sulfide concentration from 0.4 to 4 mM Na<sub>2</sub>S, the Fe/S ratio decreased from 12.02 at 0.4 mM to 2.6 at 4 mM Na<sub>2</sub>S.展开更多
