Abstract

Abstract Corrosion of metals is considered a global dilemma that is attracting an increasing number of researchers in the scientific community. One of the fundamental solutions against corrosion is using corrosion inhibitors. Corrosion inhibitors are the substances added to the medium or the metal to inhibit corrosion through different mechanisms, most commonly by the formation of a protective layer on the metal surface. Organic corrosion inhibitors constitute most of the known and used corrosion inhibitors, however, due to the toxicity and cost of synthesis, green replacements are needed. Green nanomaterials corrosion inhibitors provide a green and sustainable solution for corrosion. The low toxicity, availability, and cost-effectiveness of green nanoparticles made them a growing research field. This review article highlights the synthesis, use, and application of green nanomaterials in corrosion inhibition. Moreover, the article provides insight into the different types of green nanomaterials inhibitors and their common characterization techniques.
