Effect of fly ash on the corrosion performance and structural integrity of stainless steel concrete rebars in acid rain and saline environments

Abstract: The corrosion behavior of 304L stainless steel rebars in an alkaline solution simulating new concrete subjected to acid rain attack and a mildly to slightly acidic solution simulating corroded cover concrete that exposed the reinforcement to direct acid rain attack, was investigated by reverse polarization. Both solutions contained Ca(OH)2 and fly ash (0-25 wt.% of the dry mixture). Concrete cubes containing 0-25 wt.% fly ash and reinforced with 304L rebars were subjected to salt spraying for 4 m. Although the… Show more

“…Nevertheless, even in this case, the very low current densities values in the passive regime in combination with the slightly nobler Ea/c tr values compared to the respective Ecorr values indicate a good corrosion resistance. The above trends are compatible with previous efforts on 316L [14,16] and 304L [15,17] immersed in various AR mimicking electrolytes containing Ca(OH)2 and FA, whilst poor in Cl -. The beneficial effect of the FA partially replacing Ca(OH)2 on the corrosion resistance of the 316L rebars is attributed to the increase in the pozzolanic and cementitious activities.…”

“…Previous efforts have studied the electrochemical performance of stainless steels in electrolytes consisting of Ca(OH) 2 and sodium chloride [12] or acid rain solutions [13][14][15][16]. The favorable effect of fly ash (maximized at 20% replacement of Ca(OH) 2 ) has been manifested [13][14][15][16].…”
