Effect of Pharmaceutically Active Compound Nitroxoline on the Corrosion of Mild Steel in an Acidic Environment
Table 8
AFM parameters obtained data for mild steel in the absence and the presence of Nitroxoline in 1 M sulphuric acid.
| Sample | Root mean square roughness (nm) | Maximum peak-to-peak height (nm) | Ten-point height (nm) | Average roughness (nm) |
| Fresh mild steel | 13.02 | 121.92 | 62.14 | 9.77 | MS in 1 M H2SO4 | 36.59 | 296.12 | 151.00 | 28.74 | MS in 1 M H2SO4 + Nitroxoline | 24.17 | 263.82 | 116.13 | 12.01 |
