Abstract
The contribution of l-citrulline (CTL) to the corrosion inhibition effect of aqueous rind extract (RE) from watermelon for mild steel in \HCl\ solution was investigated using electrochemical (electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization (PDP)) and weight loss techniques at 25
