In response to environmental guidelines, a low phosphonic multipolymer was synthesized and its corrosion inhibition efficiency to brass in synthetic water was investigated through weight loss measurements and electrochemical tests.It showed that the synthesized inhibitor decreased corrosion under the conditions tested.Potentiodynamic polarization curves indicated that the new inhibitor acted as an anodic inhibitor, reducing metal dissolution.The composition of protective films formed on the brass was studied by energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX).The inhibition effects were due to the formation of a protective film of the multipolymer inhibitor on the metal surface.
