Summary:Stainless steels are extensively used for both engineering and industrial applications based on their excellent properties which makes them fit for various purposes. During applications, they are usually faced with corrosion attacks which have always been their uttermost challenge. To this reason, this research enumerates the properties of stainless steels, the use of inhibitors for control, existing research on austenitic 316L stainless steel with their inhibitor efficiencies, the environment used, the concentration of the environment used, experimental analysis carried out, and emphasis on the use of organic inhibitor for a sustainable industry. The results of each research showed strong inhibition efficiency values with an optimum efficiency value of 98.86%, which suggests excellent performance of organic inhibitors due to their functional groups and molecular species which promote strong adsorption inhibition mechanism.
