involves the MF molecules and Zn2+ ions in the solution [17]. The
inhibition efficiency was significantly decreased by MF-Zn2+ sys-
tem and increase in concentration of MF was observed. This can
be due to the fact that in the bulk of solutions, of MF-Zn2+ complex
precipitates [18,19]. All these results indicates that the concentra-
tion of 300 ppm of MF and 50 ppm of Zn2+ is constituted the good
protection for carbon steel against corrosion [20].

The SEM analysis was examined to know additional information

about the surface film morphology of formation [36]. The Fig. 4a

The Fig. 4b exhibits the SEM images of carbon steel with 1.12 kx

of carbon steel are corroded and its surface appears to be uneven
and rough [37]. The Fig. 4c depicts the existence of binary system

4. Conclusions

The current study reveals the subsequent summary. The binary

system consisting of Mussaenda Frondosa (MF) Extract (300 ppm)
and Zn2+ ions (50 ppm) has exhibited a highest inhibition efficiency
of 96% for carbon steels dipped in well water. When immersion
period and corrosion rate increases, markedly inhibition efficiency
of MF-Zn2+ system decreases. Potentiodynamic polarization mea-
surement showed that the Mussaenda Frondosa (MF) extract-
Zn2+ ions are an inhibitor of mixed type. The EIS measurements
indicates that the presence of MF-Zn2+ system has noticeably
reduced the double layer capacitance (Cdl) of surface film. While
the charge transfers resistance (Rct) was appreciably higher. The
