Abstract
The corrosion inhibition of mild steel using extracts of Cannabis in different acid media was investigated by mass loss and thermometric methods. The experiments were carried out at 299±0.2 K in presence of different concentrations of dry fruit, leaves and stem extracts. The results reveal that the alcoholic extracts of Cannabis is a better corrosion inhibitor than that of toxic chemicals. The fruit extract is more potent than leaves and stem extracts to inhibit the corrosion rate.
