Tafel extrapolation techniques were used to obtain corrosion potential (Ecorr) and corrosion current density (Icorr). From all indication, the inhibitor is of mixed type. The adsorption behavior occurs on the surface of brass due to the presence of the absorbed complex atom from the oil. The calculated portion of the surface covered from the corrosion process follows Langmuir adsorption Isotherm.application/pdfT Technology (General), TJ Mechanical engineering and machineryArticle
