Dissolution of mild steel in sulphuric acid was studied in the presence and absence of a magnetic field, with and without inhibitor, under various conditions. The magnetic field reduced the dissolution of the steel, the effect being greater at lower concentrations of acid and in the absence of inhibitor. The steel was protected to a greater extent at longer immersion times.
