Item Evaluation of aqueous coffee husks extracts as a corrosion inhibitor of 1020 carbon steel in 1 mol L-1 HCl solution(ABM, ABC, ABPol, 2019) Ramos, Samantha Alcântara Fernandes; Senna, Lilian Ferreira de; Lago, Dalva Cristina Baptista doCorrosive processes in acidic medium reduce the performance and durability of metallic materials, causing problems to several industries. Corrosion inhibitors are commonly used to decrease these effects. As these inhibitors must be ecologically friendly currently, this work evaluated the anticorrosive effect of natural extracts of coffee husks (Coffea arabica L.) in the protection of carbon steel in 1 mol L-1 HCl solution. Extractions were performed using water as the extraction solvent. The polyphenols content increased with the extraction temperature, and the extracts were produced using 100 ºC. Extract concentrations of 10, 20 and 30 % v/v were analyzed as inhibitors for carbon steel in acid medium, using weight loss and electrochemical tests, as well as scanning electron microscopy. There was an increase in the inhibition efficiency as the extract concentration increased, reaching values around 97 % using 30 %v/v of extract for the weight loss tests.
