EFFICIENCY OF TIN OXIDE (SnO2) AS CORROSION INHIBITORS FOR ALUMINIUM Authors: Mugila P And Silambarasan J*
ABSTRACT
Herein, we synthesized tin oxide nanoparticles using sol-gel method. XRD and SEM were used
for characterizing metal oxide nanoparticles. The corrosion resistance behaviour of the SnO2 nanorods has
been studied by using it as inhibitor for corrosion of Aluminium in 5% HCl by weight loss, Tafel
polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy methods. From corrosion studies it can be
concluded that, the SnO2 nanorods can be used as a potential inhibitor for corrosion of aluminium in 5%
HCl.
