The reinforced cement mortars were exposed to both partial and full immersion in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution. Electrochemical measurements such as half-cell potential and linear polarization technique, as well as weight loss of the embedded rebars were performed in order to obtain information on the corrosion behaviour of the reinforcing steel in cement mortar. Results demonstrate that the amino alcohol corrosion inhibitors offer protection against rebar corrosion in cement mortars.展开更多

The comparison is achieved in the means of anticorrosion properties under the presence of chloride ions and carbonation resistance. The evaluation methods included electrochemical measurements in order to assess corrosion properties and the determination of steel’s mass loss after the end of the experimental procedure. Carbonation depth was measured using phenolphthalein as indicator after accelerated and physical exposure. From the results so far it can be shown nanocoatings gave promising results regarding induced chloride ion corrosion.展开更多
