Measurement results obtained from those three methods showed that corrosion rates decreased while BTA concentration increased. This clearly indicates that BTA inhibits the corrosion rate of CMA in artificial seawater. Although there are consistent results obtained from all these three methods, the results of the percent inhibition efficiency, IE (%), values obtained from DEIS method should be calculated from the charge transfer resistance (R-ct) values obtained after 5h.en10.1002/maco.201206565info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessadsorptioncorrosionelectrochemical techniquesthermodynamic propertiesArticle641110241031WOS:000328291000009Q2Q1
