Durability of concrete is the essential property for the lifespan of concrete structures. Rusting of steel is the major factor responsible for the loss of durability property. In order to study the corrosion behaviour of three types of reinforcing bars like Thermo-mechanically treated bar(TMT), Corrosion resistant steel (CRS), Epoxy coated rebar(ECR) were experimentally studied. The reinforcing bars having 12 mm diameter were infused in 300×300×75 mm size of concrete slab samples were kept under room temperature and certain samples are spraying with 3% of NaCl solution to attain a simulated marine exposure condition. There are various techniques including Open circuit potential (OCP), Linear polarisation resistance (LPR), Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) are used to monitorize the corroding performance of samples. On analysing the results of the electrochemical studies, it could be inferred that the efficient rebar to withstand the corrosive nature by improving the life expectancy of the concrete structure.
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.
