The investigations were carried out through Gasometric technique in 5 °C steps of temperature increase from 25 to 50 °C in 1.0 M HCl as corrodent. The AEP of 34.24 percent actives compared with ACP of 56.57 percent actives gave the same inhibition efficiencies of 76.5%. Extract primer of lower percent active compared with conventional primer were cost effective and more potent than conventional primer.enmixed plant leaf extractsalkyd extract primeralkyd convectional primerJatropha curasSida acutamild steel10.1556/1848.2022.00459International Review of Applied Sciences and Engineering214
