This study introduces Centaurea napifolia as a novel multifunctional corrosion inhibitor and a zinc-electroplating additive previously unexplored in the field. Hydro-methanolic, methylene dichloride, ethyl acetate, and n-butanol extracts were investigated for their dual functionality: inhibiting corrosion of carbon steel and improving the performance of zinc electrodeposition on mild steel. Using techniques such as potentiodynamic polarization, gravimetric methods, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersive spectroscopy, and profilometry, significant improvements in brightness, corrosion resistance, coating quality, and adhesiveness have been found. Notably, adding 3.2 g/l butanolic extract achieved an optimal corrosion rate of 0.038 mm/y, a substantial improvement over unplated mild steel and plated samples without additives, and reduced current density from 0.3235 mA/cm² to as low as 0.0033 mA/cm². These extracts showed effective inhibition against carbon steel corrosion in acidic environments with efficiencies up to 82%, following the Langmuir isotherm model with physical adsorption being spontaneous and exothermic, highlighting the potential of Centaurea napifolia extracts as eco-friendly alternatives for metal protection. These findings translate to significant economic opportunities for industries reliant on metal protection systems by offering eco-friendly alternatives that could reduce environmental impact while enhancing the durability of metal components used for practical or industrial applications.
