Use of Embeddable Sensors in an Integrated Monitoring System for Reinforced Concrete Structures
(2003)
Carbon-based conductive coatings are complex composites, consisting of an organic or inorganic binder and conductive carbon components, for application as anodes in impressed current cathodic protection systems of reinforced concrete structures. The electrochemical properties of three coatings at different humidity and in saturated calcium hydroxide solution were studied by electrochemical methods, such as electrochemical impedance measurement, measuring of open circuit potential over time and galvanostatic polarization.
Steel in concrete is protected by the alkaline pore water environment and the resulting formation of a protective passive layer against corrosion. Adverse environmental conditions due to carbonation or chloride ingress can destroy the passive layer on the steel surface. Corrosion processes starting in those areas lead to uniform corrosion or local corrosion like pitting corrosion. In comparison to uniform corrosion pitting corrosion is a form of increased local corrosion and thus leads to a progressive reduction in cross-section of the reinforcing steel. The corrosion products are first absorbed by the pores of the concrete matrix, without causing visible external changes at the concrete surface.
Carbon‐based conductive coatings are complex composites, consisting of an organic or inorganic binder and conductive carbon components, for application as anodes in impressed current cathodic protection systems of reinforced concrete structures. The electrochemical properties of three coatings at different humidity and in saturated calcium hydroxide solution were studied by electrochemical methods, such as electrochemical impedance measurement, measuring of open circuit potential over time and galvanostatic polarization. The dissolved organic and inorganic carbons in electrolyte solution were quantified by using a photometric method. The structures of the coatings were investigated before and after the electrochemical tests by microscopy and scanning electron microscope/EDX analysis. The results of the electrochemical impedance measurements show that the tested coatings all have a relatively low resistance, which is between 100 and 200V. The binder and the surface porosity influence the degradation behavior of those coatings. Especially the organic binder reacts with the strong alkaline medium under dissolving of organic carbon.
Investigations of corrosion on small cathodes in reinforced concrete - observations and suggestions
(2009)
Corrosion of steel reinforcement in concrete exposed to chloride containing environments is a serious
problem in civil engineering practice. The standards and guidelines contain only minimum
requirements regarding concrete quality and concrete cover. In very critical cases, for example the
ingress of chlorides, the application of different coatings is currently the only possibility to protect the
reinforced concrete structures. In this case the modelling of reinforcement corrosion would be more
practical. One sub-project of a DFG-research project (FOR 537) is currently performed at the Federal
Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM). Aim of the sub-project is the description of
corrosion propagation and the characterization of the corrosion on specimens with small cathodes by
electrochemical parameters. The electrochemical parameters are determined by suitable
electrochemical measurements, considering concrete parameters as well as different environmental
conditions.
