2024-05-01T19:45:16+00:00

Corrosion in materials is a significant concern for the industrial and academic fields because corrosion causes enormous losses in various fields such as the economy, environment, society, industry, security, safety, and others. Currently, material damage control using organic compounds has become a popular field of study. Pyridine and quinoline stand out as corrosion inhibitors among a myriad of organic compounds because they are non-toxic, inexpensive, and effective in a variety of corrosive environments. Experimental investigations in developing various candidate potential inhibitor compounds are time and resource-intensive. In this work, we use a quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR)-based machine learning (ML) approach to investigate support vector machine (SVR), random forest (RF), and k-nearest neighbors (KNN) algorithms as predictive models of inhibition performance. (Inhibition efficiency) corrosion of pyridine-quinoline derivative compounds as corrosion inhibitors on iron.

Overall, our study provides new insights regarding the ML model in predicting corrosion inhibition on iron surfaces.

Investigating potential corrosion inhibitors via empirical research is a labor- and resource-intensive process. In this work, we evaluated various linear and non-linear algorithms as predictive models for corrosion inhibition efficiency (CIE) values using a machine learning (ML) paradigm based on the quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) model.

The purpose of this study is to use quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR)-based machine learning (ML) to examine the corrosion inhibition capabilities of benzimidazole compounds. The primary difficulty in ML development is creating a model with a high degree of precision so that the predictions are correct and pertinent to the material's actual attributes. We assess the comparison between the extra trees regressor (EXT) as an ensemble model and the decision tree regressor (DT) as a basic model. It was discovered that the EXT model had better predictive performance in predicting the corrosion inhibition performance of benzimidazole compounds based on the coefficient of determination (R²) and root mean square error (RMSE) metrics compared DT model. This method provides a fresh viewpoint on the capacity of ML models to forecast potent corrosion inhibitors.
