In-lab accelerated steel rebar corrosion tests have greatly deepened the understandings in
corrosion behaviors, but remain still far from being filling the gaps between the corrosion …

There are few data on corrosion rates of reinforcements in real marine conditions. In present
work corrosion rates at long term are presented in the case of small specimens and large …

The random distribution of corrosion pits causes the cross-sectional area of a tendon to vary
along its length, producing a severe stress concentration at the pits. These effects must be …

Corrosion inhibitor is widely used to mitigate corrosion damage of reinforced concrete. The
objective of this study is to clarify the inhibition effect of organic core–shell corrosion …

A theory is developed for calculating the chloride threshold (CT) from the Point Defect Model
(PDM). CT is defined as the ratio [Cl−]/[OH−] at which the passivity breakdown voltage (E b) …

Concretes with fly ash, slag, limestone calcined clay, etc. exhibiting high resistivity are being
used to enhance the chloride resistance of structures–to achieve durability. Prior to use, the …

Chloride ions constitute one of the deleterious agents that may cause or promote corrosion
of steel reinforcement in concrete. The influence of chloride ingress on mortar microstructure …

Abstract Knowledge of the corrosion potential (ECP) in the passive condition is important in
assessing corrosion in reinforced concrete structures. While ECP is routinely measured …

Since reinforced mortar is a multi-phase composite material at different levels of
aggregation, a combination of techniques, namely electrochemical impedance spectroscopy …

Chloride-induced corrosion in low carbon concrete with a high volume of SCMs exposed to
(i) accelerated corrosion by impressed current,(ii) 9-year NaCl-simulated tidal condition and …
