Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images show that the surfacedamage is decreased in the presence of the inhibitor. X-rays photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis was performed to identify thecorrosion product, ZnO, and to prove the inhibitor adsorption mechanism. The maximum inhibition efficiency values are 90.7% after1 h and 66.6% after 0.5 h by 200 mL/L of fenugreek extract in H2SO4 and HCl solutions, respectively. Addition of I^- ion greatlyimproves the inhibition efficiency of fenugreek seeds extract for Zn corrosion in HCl due to the synergistic effect. Potentiodynamicpolarization and EIS measurements prove the inhibition ability of fenugreek for Zn corrosion in HCl as indicated by the decreasedcorrosion current density and increased charge transfer resistance values in the presence of fenugreek.展开更多
