dc.descriptionApplication of corrosion inhibitors are the most versatile corrosion prevention methods of carbon steels in corrosive environments. Research on non-toxic chemical compounds are ongoing and results from pre-vious study have proven the effectiveness of the compounds. Data on corrosion inhibition of ginger (GG), tea tree (TR) and grapefruit (GF) oil extracts on low carbon steel in 0.5 M H2SO4 are presented. The extracts performed effectively with optimal values of 99.56 %, 98.17 % and 98.32 % at 2.5 % GG, 3.5 % TR and 3 % GF concentrations. Corresponding corrosion rate values are 0.28 mm/y, 1.16 mm/y and 1.49 mm/y. Corrosion rate at 0 % extract concentration is 63.33 mm/y. Performance of TR extract significantly varies with time and concentration with statistical value of 48.21 % and 23.02 %. GG and GF concentration where the only statistically relevant factors for GG and GF performance with statistical values of 68.42 % and 73.20 %. Standard deviation data for GG extracts varied minimally from mean values compared to TR and GF extracts. Results shows 92 %, 18 % and 63 % of GG, TR and GF extracts inhibition data are above 95 % inhibition value at margin of error of 6.99 %, 10 % and 12.19 %.
