This study investigated the use of ethanol extract Experimental methods used are gravimetric and thermometric The results showed that corrosion rate decreased as the concentration of ethanol extract of Vitex doniana increased and with decrease in temperature. Vitex doniana extract obeyed Langmuir and Tempkin adsorption isotherm. Physical adsorption was proposed from △G° and Ea. Inhibition efficiency (1%) and the degree of surface coverage (0) were calculated and all indicated that Vitex doniana was a good corrosion inhibitor.展开更多
