Steel corrosion is the main cause of deterioration of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. We
provide an up-to-date review on corrosion mechanisms and recent advances in electrical …

This paper summarizes the grand societal, economic, technological, and educational
challenges related to corrosion of steel in concrete, and presents the state-of-the-art of the …

Molten ZnCl 2 hydrates are ionic liquids at room temperature, which exhibit intriguing
physical and electrochemical properties. Continuous efforts have been devoted over several …

Extraction of pore solutions from hardened inorganic polymer cement (“geopolymer”) paste
samples shows that the pore network of these materials is rich in alkali cations and has pH> …

Chloride binding by the cement in concrete may affect the rate of chloride ingress and
chloride threshold level which in turn determine the time to chloride induced corrosion …

Reinforced concretes were corroded to varying degrees by exposing to cyclic NaCl spray
and 40° C drying. The amount of corrosion products and induced damage were measured …

Aqueous iron hydrolysis products and chloride complexes influence steel corrosion kinetics
and dictate the amount and type of corrosion products formed. Here, we compile a …

Written specifically for the young professional and addressing a growing need for a long
service life with minimal maintenance, Concrete Durability takes a whole new look at the …

A novel custom-designed wire beam electrode (WBE) covered by uncracked and cracked
mortar was applied to study the corrosion propagation behavior of steel reinforcement. The …

Corrosion of the steel reinforcement is among the main causes of deterioration in concrete
structures. Measures of corrosion levels are typically used to evaluate the subsequent …
