Inhibition of corrosion of mild steel in simulated concrete pore solution in DD water in the presence of self-assembling Nano film of Tri sodium citratewith and without the presence of chloride ion has been evaluated by a weight loss method. The formulation consists of 200 ppm of TSC has 98% corrosion inhibition efficiency (IE), in controlling corrosion of mild steel immersed in SCPS. Polarization study reveals that the formulation functions as anodic inhibitor. AC impedance spectra reveal that the formulation of protective film on the metal surface. FTIR spectra reveal that the protective film consists of Fe2+ - TSC complex and CaO, CaCO3. The SEM micrographs and EDAX analysis confirm the formation of protective film on the metal surface. AFM images confirm the formation of protective layer on the metal surface.
