Corresponding surfaces of steel were examined by SEM and EDX techniques. The obtained data demonstrated that inhibition efficiency increased by increasing both natural honey dose and environment temperature. Synergism parameter values were found more than one indicating that the inhibition efficiency of natural honey enhanced by an addition of KI due to synergism. The adsorption of natural honey in the presence and absence of iodide ions on the steel surface was found to follow Langmuir adsorption isotherm. 收起
