Corrosion Inhibition Study Using Ofloxacin (Antibiotics) As Corrosion Inhibitor for Mild Steel in Hci Medium
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study explores the corrosion inhibition performance of ofloxacin for mild steel in 0.1 M and 0.5 M hydrochloric acid solutions and was investigated using the gravimetric (weight loss) method at 298 K. Different concentrations of ofloxacin (0.1–0.5 g/L) were employed to evaluate its effect on corrosion rate, inhibition efficiency and surface coverage. The results revealed that ofloxacin significantly reduced the corrosion rate of mild steel in both acidic media. Maximum inhibition efficiencies of 78.86% in 0.5 M HCl and 70.86% in 0.1 M HCl were achieved at 0.5 g/L inhibitor concentration. The inhibition efficiency increased with increasing inhibitor concentration, indicating adsorption-controlled inhibition. Adsorption of ofloxacin on the mild steel surface followed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm, suggesting monolayer adsorption. The study confirms that ofloxacin is an effective corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in hydrochloric acid environments.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
