Abstract
Corrosion of mild steel in corrosive solutions is one of the major concerns in industries such as oil and gas, petrochemical and marine. The use of organic inhibitors has proven to be an effective method to protect mild steel from corrosion. This mini-review summarised recent innovations in organic inhibitors for mild steel in corrosive solutions. This article discusses the types of organic inhibitors, including adsorption, film-forming, mixed, synergistic and green inhibitors, their mechanism of action, and their application in various corrosive environments. The article then highlights recently published inhibitors such as quinoline derivatives, Schiff bases, amino acids, and polymers. These inhibitors have shown promising results in protecting mild steel from corrosion. The mini-review concludes by discussing the prospects of organic inhibitors for mild steel in corrosive solutions. Overall, this mini-review provides valuable insights into recent innovations in organic inhibitors for mild steel in corrosive solutions, which are useful for researchers and industries working on corrosion protection.
