The inhibitory strength of the two soluble polymer compounds namely, poloxamer (PLX) and pectin (PEC) towards the corrosion of carbon steel in 1.0 M HCl solution was elucidated utilizing four techniques. The inhibition efficacy augments with the concentration of the tested polymer and with reducing temperature. The outcome of the corrosion parameter obtained from all utilized measurements emphasizes the inhibiting vigor of these two compounds. The inhibition was interpreted by the formation of an adsorbing coated layer that isolates the steel surface from aggressive solutions. The adsorption of PLX and PEC on the steel surface follows Freundlich isotherm. The adsorption type is a combination of physical and chemical adsorption. Also, PLX and PEC compounds inhibit the pitting corrosion of Csteel in Clions including the solutions by moving the pitting potential in the positive direction. The inhibition efficacy of PET more than PLX due to higher molar mass of PET resulting in greater surface coverage on C-steel surface. There is a clear harmony on the values of the inhibition efficacy resulting from the different techniques.
