Abstract
A green and cost-effective inhibitor based on Date palm leaves extract was formulated for use during acid cleaning of thermal desalination plants. The inhibitor formulation designated as F1 was tested against the corrosion of ferrous-based alloys namely: carbon steel, Ni-resist, and 316L stainless steel in 2% HCl solution at 40
