Metals have been employed in a variety of industries because of their processability, manufacturability, and durability. For these metals to remain stable, they tend to reverse back to their original state (ore). The resultant effect is called corrosion, and is defined as the deterioration of metals due to interaction with their environment. Huge investments could be lost if the required measures are not taken. The global cost of corrosion is estimated to be US$2.5 trillion annually. Unfortunately, as a result of indirect corrosion losses, this economic table is growing every year. Corrosion is a problem that scientists are continually attempting to solve. In 2020 only, 30.490 academic papers in this field were published, according to the ScienceDirect® research portal.
A corrosion inhibitor can be an organic or inorganic compound. The corrosion rate is greatly reduced when an appropriate concentration is used. Many commonly used synthetic substances, despite their high efficiency, are often poisonous, carcinogenic, or allergic. Because of rising environmental consciousness and stringent environmental restrictions, attention is now being paid to the development of nontoxic alternatives to supplant the harmful and environmentally unfriendly corrosion inhibitors. As a result, a need for biodegradable, ecologically acceptable inhibitors derived from fruits, leaves, biomass wastes, and other natural items has emerged. The evaluation of scientific papers linked to ecological corrosion inhibitors published in respectable journals by our own group is presented in this study for your consideration.
