Corrosion performance of carbon steel in N-doped mesoporous carbon spheres (NMCS)-containing alkaline medium in presence of chloride

The electrochemical response of carbon steel in chloride-free or chloride-containing 0.1 M and 0.9 M NaOH, in the presence of 0.016 wt.% NMCS, is the subject of this work. The NMCS exhibited a negative (in 0.1 M NaOH) and positive (in 0.9 M NaOH) zeta-potential. This determined altered steel electrochemical response, improved overall,...
