In this study, we investigated the inhibiting effect of Dioscorea spp leaf extracts on the corrosion of mild steel in selected media using the weight loss method. The mild steel samples were pre-weighed and immersed in NaOH, NaCl and H2SO4 solutions respectively containing the leaf extracts, with the control samples immersed in solutions of the media containing no extract. The samples were allowed to stand for 672 hours,...
