Corrosion is a natural process that leads to material degradation due to environmental factors. It significantly impacts financial and safety aspects, including structural weakening and economic losses in various industries such as oil, gas, and nuclear. Corrosion inhibitors, especially organic compounds like quinoxaline, are widely used to reduce corrosion by forming protective layers on metal surfaces. Quinoxaline compounds, characterized by their heterocyclic structure with nitrogen atoms, demonstrate promising inhibition efficiency in corrosive environments. In this study, machine learning (ML) approaches are utilized to predict the corrosion inhibition efficiency of quinoxaline compounds. Algorithms such as Gradient Boosting Regressor (GBR), Extreme Gradient Boosting Regressor (XGBR), and Automatic Relevance Determination (ARD) regression are compared. The implementation of polynomial functions significantly improves the prediction accuracy of these models. Among them, GBR achieved the best value with MSE, RMSE, MAE, MAPE, and R2 values of 0.0000001, 0.0003229, 0.0000029, 0.0002294, and 0.999999998, respectively. These findings highlight the potential of polynomial-enhanced ML models in accurately predicting corrosion inhibition efficiency. Moreover, the study demonstrates the viability of GBR as a reliable tool for analyzing and optimizing corrosion inhibitors for industrial applications.
