The corrosion inhibition of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonates surfactant (SDBS) and SDBS incorporated with various concentrations of zinc sulfate (ZnSO4) on mild steel, in 0.05 M NaCl at 25 C were investigated using the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and polarization measurements. The adsorption behavior of SDBS was investigated through different adsorption isotherms. Characterization of the organic film on mild steel surface was done through the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis. The EIS results found that the corrosion inhibition efficiency (IE) of SDBS was enhanced in the presence of ZnSO4, showing the maximum value of 96% at mixtures of 200:200 ppm SDBS:ZnSO4. The polarization measurement found that the IE for a similar sample was 95%, which agrees well with the EIS results. The calculated thermodynamic parameter reveals that the adsorption process of SDBS obeys the Langmuir adsorption isotherm with the correlation coefficient, R of 0.996. The calculated free energy of adsorption was -33 kJmol-1 which indicated strong adsorption of SDBS on mild steel surface both through physisorption and chemisorption. The FTIR analysis confirmed the presence of the adsorbed organic film on the mild steel surface.
