Abstract
Using the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique, stearic acid (SA) monolaye rs were deposited onto the surface of an iron (Fe) electrode to study the inhibition effect and the mechanism of SA in a neutral medium. Mol ecular orientation and the number of deposited monolayers of SA were s hown to have marked effects on inhibition of Fe corrosion. The inhibit ion mechanism depended mainly on blocking.
