Abstract
This study investigates the corrosion inhibition potential of 3,4-dimethoxy phenyl thiosemicarbazone (DMPTS) for copper in 1 M hydrochloric acid (HCl) solutions, aiming to disclose the mechanism behind its protective action. Through an integrative methodology encompassing electrochemical analyses-such as weight loss measurements, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS)-we quantitatively evaluate the corrosion protection efficacy of DMPTS. It was determined that the optimal concentration of DMPTS markedly boosts the corrosion resistance of copper, achieving an impressive inhibition efficiency of up to 89% at 400 ppm. The formation of a protective layer on the copper surface, a critical aspect of DMPTS's inhibitory action, was characterized using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). These techniques provided empirical evidence of surface morphology modifications and roughness changes, affirming the formation of a protective barrier against corrosion. A significant advancement in our study was the application of Attenuated Total Reflectance Fourier Transform Infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy, which identified chemical adsorption as the definitive mechanism of corrosion inhibition by DMPTS. The ATR-FTIR results explicitly demonstrated the specific interactions between DMPTS molecules and the copper surface, indicative of a robust protective adsorbed layer formation. This mechanistic insight, crucial to understanding the inhibitory process, aligns with the protective efficacy observed in electrochemical and surface analyses. Theoretical support, provided by the Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules (QTAIM) and quantum chemical computations, further validated the strong molecular interaction between DMPTS and copper, corroborating the experimental findings. Collectively, this research not only confirms the superior corrosion inhibition performance of DMPTS in an acidic setting but also elucidates the chemical adsorption mechanism as the foundation of its action, offering valuable insights for the development of effective corrosion inhibitors in industrial applications.

Abstract
Aluminum corrosion inhibitors "{[CuI (CN)2(phen) CuII (CN)2(phen)]5H2O},(MOF1) and {[CuI(CN)2(phen)CuII(CN)2(phen)]5H2O}@TiO2 (MOF1@TiO2) were studied in one molar HCl solution". The ML results for three different temperatures (25-45 °C) were compared with the results of PDP and EIS analyses. The adsorption of inhibitors on Al surfaces has been calculated and discussed by a Langmuir isotherm. The inhibitors that were created showed great effectiveness, with a noticeable increase in their inhibitory efficiency as the dosage was raised and the temperature was lowered. Inhibition efficiency each amounted to 88.6%, 84.5% at 400 ppm and 25 °C for MOF1@TiO2 and MOF1, respectively. Analyzing the polarization curves of synthesized inhibitors revealed that they were mixed-type inhibitors. Al was found to be surface inhibited when coated with a thin film of inhibitors, and "Al's surface morphology was assessed by different techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) and atomic force microscope (AFM)". "Theoretical models like quantum chemical and molecular dynamics simulation authenticated the experimental observation". The MOFs exhibit exceptional corrosion resistance against Al when exposed to acidic environments, according to several tests.

Abstract
Natural and fragrant compounds, essential oils (EOs) extracted from plants through hydrodistillation, are gaining popularity as eco-friendly and sustainable agents to protect metals and alloys from corrosion in acidic environments. This research focused on extracting and characterizing an EO obtained from the Cuminum cyminum (CC) plant native to India. The study aimed to evaluate the inhibitory properties of this EO on mild steel in a 0.5 M HCl solution at different concentrations. Various analytical techniques, including potentiodynamic polarization curves, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, optical microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, and proton magnetic resonance, were employed to assess the effectiveness of this EO extract. Our findings indicate that the Cuminum cyminum L (CCL) extract effectively reduces the corrosion of mild steel in hydrochloric acid with an inhibition efficiency ranging from 79.69 to 98.76%. The optimal inhibition concentration was 2 g/L of EO, and surface analysis confirmed the formation of a protective layer. Furthermore, our results suggest that the inhibitor binds to the metal surface through a charge-transfer process, creating a protective film. Finally, we utilized theoretical calculations and molecular dynamics simulations to elucidate the inhibition mechanism on both a global and local scale.
