Abstract
Extract of Clerodendrumphlomidis plants leaves was investigated as corrosion inhibitor of mild steel in 0.5M HCl using conventional weight loss method and scanning electron microscopic studies. The weight loss results showed that all the plant extracts are excellent corrosion inhibitors, Scanning electron microscopic studies provided the confirmatory evidence of improved surface condition, due to the adsorption, for the corrosion protection.
