文摘The corrosion behavior of the acidophilic sulfur-oxidizing microorganism(ASOM)Acidithiobacillusthiooxidans(A.thiooxidans)on mortar was investigated for changes of medium and mortar,as well as for weight lossand surface morphology of mortar specimens.Weight loss analysis showed that mortar weight was reduced by(15.1±2.2)%after 56 d.Morphological surface analysis of mortar specimens showed weakly structured fibrous substances with2−100μm in size.The pH variations of the mortar surface and medium indicated that biogenic sulfuric acid had beenproduced by A.thiooxidans.The results prove that A.thiooxidans accelerated concrete corrosion and caused concretefailure.
