Erosion corrosion performance of 6061 aluminum alloy in simulated sea water slurry was investigated under multi-phase jet impingement conditions.The main objective of the work is to study erosion-corrosion of a material with engineering application and mitigate it using eco-friendly green inhibitor.Experiments were performed with the sand concentration of 0.3% and 0.3 μm size.The effect of temperature and flow rate on the performance of inhibitor was explored.Electrochemical methods were adopted for erosion-corrosion measurements.Experiments revealed that starch could mitigate erosion-corrosion with a maximum reduction efficiency of 58% at temperature of 303 K and flow rate of 4 L· min-1.Inhibition efficiency decreased with increase in flowrate and temperature.EIS spectrum demonstrated that the corrosion process in the presence on inhibitor was both charge transfer and mass transfer controlled.A key role of hydrodynamics in the performance of corrosion inhibitor was confirmed by the present study.
