Mild steel is relatively less expensive. So in reinforced concrete, mild steel can be used. Mild steel in concrete structures may experience corrosion. To avert corrosion of mild steel, a number of inhibitors are used along with concrete admixtures. In this category of research, saturated calcium hydroxide solution is considered as simulated concrete pore solution (SCPS). Numerous corrosion inhibitors have been utilized in this field along with organic coatings. In the present investigation show case polish coated mild steel has been used in concrete. The corrosion resistance has been calculated by electrochemical studies such as polarization study and AC impedance spectra. When show case polish coated mild steel is immersed in SCPS, the corrosion resistance of mild steel increases. This is long-established by the facts that in presence of show case polish coating , the linear polarization resistance value increases, corrosion current value decreases, charge transfer resistance increases, double layer capacitance decreases, impedance increases, and phase angle increases. The protecting layer functions as anodic inhibitor and controls the anodic reaction primarily. The protective coating offers 99.99% inhibition efficiency. It implies that the show case polish coated mild steel can be used in concrete technology. This will increase the lifetime of the rebars.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
