Description Corrosion inhibition effects of crude methanolic extract of Artemisia pallens on mild steel in 1 mol l1 HCl were studied by weight loss and electrochemical technique. Arbutin, an active principle from A. pallens and the crude methanolic extract exhibited inhibition efficiency of 93% and 98% in 400 mg l1 concentration at 30 C respectively. The results indicated that arbutin in acidic medium acted as good anticorrosive agent synergistically with its hydrolyzed products hydroquinone and D-glucose. Adsorption of both the inhibitors on mild steel surface conformed to the Langmuir isotherm with standard adsorption free energy of 33.07 kJ mol1 for arbutin.
