Abstract

Currently, the eco-friendly corrosion inhibitors are widely used to protect the metallic materials from the corrosion destruction. The eco-friendly corrosion inhibitors are biodegradable, low toxic, low volatile, low cost, good water soluble, good adsorbent, and do not contain heavy metals or other toxic compounds. The plant extracts and natural substances are suggested as an eco-friendly corrosion inhibitors in the various corrosion medium. The corrosion of steel, copper, magnesium, aluminum and other metal based metallic materials in the aggressive acidic, alkaline, saline and other corrosion medium are efficiently protect with the presence of eco-friendly corrosion inhibitors. The cost in the synthesizing natural inhibitors is very low and syntheses processes are environmental friendly. This make eco-friendly corrosion inhibitors become more efficient as an economically and environmentally. In this chapter, the development process for eco-friendly corrosion inhibitors, their advantages and their inconveniences are discussed and reviewed.
