Abstract: Corrosion is the deterioration or gradual destruction of metal or steel due to its environment. The application of green corrosion inhibitors, which reduces the corrosion rate to a reasonable level and has less impact on the environment is one of the important methods for controlling corrosion in daily life. In terms of its relationship with the environment, this area of research is evolving significantly. Today, due to increasing health awareness, anti-corrosion chemicals are strictly prohibited and regulations numbered are made by environmental organizations in many countries. According to these regulations, chemicals must be environmentally friendly and safe. Based on this, intensive research has been carried out to develop green corrosion inhibitors from plant extracts for approximately years. These chemicals are readily available, inexpensive, and biodegradable and safe, making them promising alternatives to harmful corrosion inhibitors. The purpose of this article is to briefly describe a recent compilation of important papers on the use of plant extracts as sustainable and green corrosion inhibitors. There is also some debate about the advantages and disadvantages of using this chemical to protect metals.
